Yup, pushed up right behind the sub and no probs (so far) that I can attribute to the sub (but who knows, I have had some probs with stability but it is more likely driver related!)

Well, the magentic field is most likely strongest radially (in the EP500's case, it's vertically), so you probably have enough distance at the back to be safe.

The cats we have are one of the exotic breeds, they are Bengals and are very differant from the normal domestic cats. Both are about 4 years old now and a favorite spot for laying around is on top of the twin 600s.

Beautifull cats, I always wanted a Silver Tabby, but my dog is not that cat freindly, we have one cat left only because it has been smart enough to stay clear of the dog.

i remember you educating everyone about them a while ago, was thinking about getting one for the parents, but couldnt remember the damn name

is it best to get 2 of them? or will 1 cat + 2 dogs be good?

It's usually best to fully involve the gift receipient(s) in the choice of pet. I don't want to assume anything on your part, but I wanted to make sure you weren't just going to appear on their doorstep with a feline or two that's much closer to wild animal (relatively speaking) than your average house cat.

I would agree with Peter as to not just giving a Bengal to your parents without involving them in the decision making. The Bengal breed can make great pets/companions for the owner, but also they can be a lot differant than a regular feline. I would recommend finding a Bengal breeder that is in your area and not go with online ordering, we needed to travel over a 100 miles for each of the two breeders we dealt with. A reputable Bengal breeder will do a interview with a persepective owner to aid them in the decision making of becoming a Bengal owner, and if you do purchase a Bengal, the breeder will have a list of requirements you must agree with and abide by. Bengals are rather expensive and breeders want the owner to undestand the Bengal temperment and that these are not just the typical kitty cats that after a few months the owner decides to just drop it off at a animal shelter.
If your parents are lovers of cats, and want a feline that is highly intelligent ( we have learend to never walk out of the house with out keys, as the Bengals will flip the dead bolts on us) and do have many of the characteristics of "big cats" I would recommend doing some reasearch on the Bengal line.
