I like the kitchen, CV!! Good choice of wood. Thanks, Sean! They're just IKEA cabinets, but the doors and fronts I got from Semihandmade, and I'm very happy with the quality. I thought about going with something more exotic, but I liked the look of the bamboo, and I don't regret it. So far. Who knows what I'll think after a while of using the kitchen. I feel like I always have bad news, and there is more today. Before heading to work this morning, I had my system on like normal. I watched the new Marina and the Diamonds video, then just left the system silent as I did a little browsing online. LOUD POP a few minutes later. I went over to inspect, smelled burnt something, then quickly tried to play something to see if it was the ADA-1500-4 powering the LFR1100s. Yeah, no sound coming from them. I didn't have time to do any further troubleshooting, so I simply powered off the amp and DSP and unplugged them. Finally checking it out now after getting home, and sure enough, switching the LFR1100 channels to the ADA-1000-4 resulted in restoring my sound. I know they'll take care of me, but I keep wanting my system to be completely up and running the way it's supposed to be so I can have people over. I still need to call them and pay for the return shipping boxes and label for the EP800 that I'm sending in for repair, so I should get everything sorted at once.

Maybe Regina has cast a spell on you for listening to too much Marina?

Walt and Jesse are ready to help me cook. I officially have too many CDs. That's only halfway through S, and that's not including soundtracks, classical, comedy, and test CDs. I'll have to weed out some of the ones I know I don't want anymore. Also, a lot of those are singles, so I may store those in boxes behind the shelves, only leaving full albums out for perusal.

I think you need more CDs. When I was going to university we had a music room maybe 16x24 and the entire perimeter of the room was lined with a 2 foot deep wall of LPs. It was basically 5 guys record collections merged and sorted by artist, but there were surprisingly few duplicates other than DSOTM (I think we had maybe 7 copies of DSOTM).
You're not even close.

I'm not trying to say I have even a large collection. I'm only saying I don't have the space for everything I own. Even after I do a purge on my music collection, that's still only my Blu-rays, video games, and my CDs out in the main area. My DVDs still need a home, as well as my books. I don't know how I ever thought this would be enough space.

Whew! Whittled down my CD collection a little bit, boxed up singles and duplicates (as in, normal versions of albums, left deluxe editions on the shelf), and now my main collection fits, with very little breathing room, in that space. I'll still need to keep soundtracks, classical, comedy, and test CDs in storage. I feel like I accomplished very little, and here it is, 3:30 AM.

In theory you establish a "comfort zone" somewhere between the minimum # of <whatever> you feel is sufficient and the maximum number you have room to store. In practice the second number is usually smaller than the first number
