Well, it's finally time!

I got married back in October, and some of my buddies (who laggardly didn't get us a wedding gift until some 6 months after the wedding) have come through in the clutch! Talk about total redemption...

I just received a gift certificate from 4 of my buddies in my e-mail inbox towards the purchase of my new Axioms.

I guess I have no excuses - just late round jitters.

My wife has given me a sizeable budget to buy my speakers, receiver, wire, cd player and new TV.

I'm planning on going with a pair of M60s, QS8s, the VP100 and a pair of M2s for the rear. I'll couple this with a Yammy 1400, and some sort of RPTV (DLP or LCD - haven't decided - may wait for LCOS to prove itself - either way, TV is about a year off...)

Anyway, just wanted to share some good news, and get some reinforcement that saving $360 isn't worth it to get the M22s.

Looks like I'll be waiting a whole 14 weeks, which puts us onto mid-July, for delivery. That's a long time to wait, isn't it? Hope I can withstand the anticipation. I guess it really will be like Christmas in July.
