Of course, that's bay area overall. I don't know about downtown SF. Could be higher.

But damn, Toronto's expensive.

Greetings,

I can confirm to anyone interested in NAD that the T762 drives 6-ohm speakers without any problem. I have had the unit for over four months and with NHT 2.5Is (6 ohms, 3.6 minimum impedance), the VP150 and QS8s at loud volume levels for extended periods it never gets more than lukewarm to the touch or engages protective circuitry. The manual also states the unit is capable of driving 4 ohm speakers and I hope that is right because the M80s are in my near future. Anyhow, just wanted to confirm the NAD recievers have no trouble with 6ohm loads, and given the 3.6ohm low and 86db sensitivity of the NHTs, I doubt they will have any issues with a 4ohm load like the M80s. Regards,

Well... I'm somewhat lucky. I'm expecting money back (I have 4 kids)and my wife works part-time. However, most of it is going to pay my property tax, school tax, MUD tax and home owners insurance and any other tax that I may have for gotten, Oh well...

I live in Oakland. A small 2 bed, 1 bath, house with a tiny yard down the steet (most likely sub 1000 sq/ft.) sold for over $425,000 earlier this year. And people were scrambling for that one.

There's no hope for me in the area. I plan to move before I buy. The secret is saving as if I were trying to buy here in the next 5 years, and then slapping a huge downpayment on a house somewhere land is cheap.

Craig, since I do tax and investment advice on another board, I have to give you the same verbal(only) spanking that I sometimes give there. The idea is not to get a "refund", but to owe a little bit with your 1040. Otherwise you're just giving the government an interest-free loan of your money.

Shawn, it's highly likely that the 1400 will drive the M80s with no problem.

I realize it is best not to get a refund. My point was more that 32% of my income has been withheld, and none of that 32% is coming back to me. It's a true 32%.

As far as housing goes...I'm actually in the market right now, so I've been looking. In my neighborhood, thing are REALLY bad.

I did a search on www.realtor.com in my zip code just last week. In the 90025 zip code, the least expensive single family home was $519,000. It was a small 2bed 1bath.

Rentals aren't very good either. My brother has been looking. A standard 2bedroom apartment. Nothing huge, or super nice goes for about $1000-1300. Anything less than that is a pretty old, well worn building.
