That was a nice looking trail. I've only been biking in Colorado in the Crested Butte area (north of Aspen). I'm in Illinois so I don't get to see many hills.

Anyway, you really have 4 18" subs in there? I bet that's a lot of fun. Maybe in 5 years I'll have a place to start doing something with. I agree with gonk in that the projector house is pretty cool. You aren't, by chance, the source of all the earthquakes are you?

Thanks for the kind remarks!

I got the vintage Altec "Voice of the Theatre" decal when I worked for Altec Lansing back when they were in Anaheim, and were a _real_ professional sound company.

I haven't made the plunge to SACD yet. I'm waiting till a 2nd generation combination player comes out, so I can upgrade my DVD in one fell swoop. I the meantime, I regularly have multi-channel masters of film scores to keep me occupied.

I have my surrounds running full range - they can easily take it. My center is set 'small' with a 150Hz crossover frequency. Even though it can be run full range, I like the 'widening' effect that having the high crossover gives.

Now that you mention it, the Northridge earthquake _did_ occur while I was watching "Twister"......

Seems an appropriate revenge would be to invest in the stock of our local power utility...all that equipment, and the tube amps in particular, use a 'significant' quantity of power.

Fantastic. Do the curtains cover the sound treatments at that end of the room?

Yes, they do. Behind the curtains are thick packing blankets. There are also curtains along the left wall. The curtains themselves are also very thick. To balance this on the right wall, there is a blanket hanging, which you can see part of - that has 1/2" foam attached to it's back. The room does not exibit any slap echoes, due to the acoustic treatments, and the peaked ceiling. The beams also break up the sound well.I went to a lot of trouble during the design phase to get the acoustics right.
