Jason, what are you going to do about getting some shut-eye? Are you going to be ok to drive? Should I come and pick you up and then drop you off?

well, I am thinking about not bringing the M2s out...I think the only reason for me to bring them would be to see how you guys like them as a centre channel in parallel.

We all want to hear the M2s to compare them to M3s and M22s. So it would be great Robb if you can satisfy our curiousities.

So do you guys actually like recabling stuff, or are you just lying to yourselves? ;\)

I actually like recabling(I know ,I know), but we are going to use Axiom's banana plugs to hook everything up, well the speakers anyway, much faster.

The subs will be another story, most likely just a single sub at a time going down the line and hooking up the cable individually.

Mojo, don't worry about me and my sleep deprivation, I will be too excited to sleep Friday night anyway, this is going to be better than Christmas morning, unless I have some more Axioms in waiting that I don't know about. I may have to preload the M60s and cables into the car before I go to work to save some time in the morning.

Robb, I agree with Mojo, the M2s must come as well.

Hey, any one know of some cheap/free plotting programs I can use with my new meter and my laptop? It might be fun to plot some of what we hear next Saturday.

I don't know how graphing would work in a room that I know to be non-linear.

If you won't be able to sleep, then why don't you come here right after work and we can start setting up. What time will you be here in the morning? And how many eggs do you want?

I was really hoping we could daisy-chain all of the subs at some point in time.

But if we're really going to pull this off guys, we must have a credible listening evaluation process for the subs and the speakers.

By the way, to spice things up a little, I will try and acquire a set of non-Axiom "guest" speakers. Stay tuned for this unexpected twist \:\) .
