I have been a long time axiom fan. I currently have M3ti, 150vp and qs4 surrounds Ive used for years along with a large SVS sub. I recently just purchased a Marantz SR5014 7.2 channel to power everything and new M60 for front speakers. I now have 2 extra M3ti should I biamp my M60 or put height Atmos setup? Been trying to figure out what to do with my old M3ti. any suggestions?

Definitely Atmos or trade them and the QS4 in for QS10.

I used to have Qs8s all the way around, but when I converted over to Atmos I went with 4 M22 onwalls for surround duty which give me a better experience for an Atmos room. I added 4 M3 InCeiling speakers for the Atmos duty. I would not worry about biamping not worth it and you won't notice any difference.

I would like to announce the panic over the pandemic, Putin's attempt to nix OPEC and, in general, any other events spooking investors, are officially over. Our civilization's outlook has never looked brighter. Please feel free to buy, buy, buy!

Apparently the masses agree with you, at least when it comes to buying toilet paper frown

I purchased a 10-year supply three years ago.

Ha here in Vancouver most everything is sold out. People are going non stop and grabbing everything the news tells them may go short.

It hasn't seemed to effect any ones thoughts of going into overly crowded places. Maybe the malls a little but groceries and T.P. people are going daily. By the hundreds.

Who would have thought society has become so pampered they're hoarding toilet paper.

I load up on non-perishables only because I hate having to buy them every week. It's more efficient this way. Unfortunately, it makes my last will and testament more difficult because I have to bequeath different non-perishables to different people. One of my friends for example doesn't like my toilet paper brand so he gets all of my Kleenex.

Interesting point Mr. Mojo. I don't have a will and have been thinking about who should get my audio systems in the event of the simultaneously inevitable and unthinkable. (I'm hoping the inevitable portion is way down the road, but, hey, Zombie Apocalypse man)

In the meantime, I am stocked with hard goods, rice, black beans, Starkist white albacore tuna* in metalized pouches, frozen foods, and paper goods.

I will be limiting my contact with people and listening to a lot of music and watching movies. I just completed an 8 day jury trial, and my trial which was scheduled to begin this Monday has been continued to June.

* Recipe: White Albacore tuna, mayo, curry powder, sliced serrano peppers, fresh cilantro ... Yum!

Please put writing a will on your list of things to do during your isolation.

You too Mr. Mojo. You might want to consider establishing a trust which will fund a museum of Axiom products as you seem to own the entire product line!

Never in my life did I think I would end up calling friends & family to make sure they were OK for toilet paper and asking what their favorite brand was.

The results were roughly:

1/3 Royale
1/3 Cashmere
1/3 "anything but Cashmere Extra Strong, that stuff is gross"

By the time I got to a store with any stock left, all they had was Cashmere Extra Strong anyways.

John, you might want to set up a poll on SurveyMonkey for your loved ones. They may change their minds over time. It would be terrible to memorialize your departure by bequeathing an unsuitable brand of butt wipe.

No worries... I stocked up on rye, tequila, dried beans and frozen vegetables instead. No run on broccoli yet, oddly enough.

Felt a bit strange standing in a lineup of people with carts full of toilet paper and only buying a couple of packages (one for me and one for neighbors) though.

Toilet paper supply seems to be fine other than the supply chain being temporarily emptied.

That's for sure ... went out for some paper goods as we were low and the shelves were stripped bare ... what's up with that?

I personally find it uncomfortable substituting any of the above for toilet paper.

Made a trip to the grocery store last night.

All the paper gone, all the canned gone, rice, flour, Milk.
It was entertaining. Though a little extreme. Kind of like a bunch of hoarders all went to get the nonperishables together.

They were not hoarders. They were The Crazies.

Agreed... but toilet paper production is still running at full speed - in fact 10-15% higher than normal - so I'm not worried about running out of that. The big packs normally last a month or more anyways.

I live out in the sticks so what city folk call prepping I call shopping. I gave my sister a heads-up call about the toilet paper shortages... her response was basically "I've been hoarding my whole life... it's my time to shine" laugh
