In reply to:
I hesitate to say this (sorry Saturn and mwc), but the M80s with the EP600 driven by the Halos were the best I have ever heard (with the only slightly possible exception of the Revel Ultimas). Better than the Magnepans. Better than Paradigm Studio 100s. Better than Hales. Better than B&W.




Ken: The M80 with EP600 and Halos would kick most Magnepan models. With that combo the Magnepan by itself would never get down to those subterainian levels. Also the M80 might also outperform in localization and imaging of players on the stage. Magnepan is kinda surrounding sounding and pin pointing is in a general area...you know what I mean...as you have heard Maggies before. Also Maggies has a sweet spot of about 3-4 feet. Outside that space the soundstage breaks up a little. But within that sweet spot the midrange is to die for.
I wished I could have listened to that setup. It would have been awesome.

Holy %^#$... those cabinets are just for CDs and you're doing ANOTHER one for DVDs ? I figured you were finished -- one side for CDs and the other side for DVDs...

kinda OT but I'll ask...

How do you get your pics in line w/ the text like that? I can't seem to get the HTML text right to point to my picture's URL.

Well I finished the first CD and well thinking, decided to make room for future purchases, and not wanting to re-build, made storage for 1,230 CDs, and the DVD/PS2/GC storage will be for 280. Once the cabinets are full, no more buying discs.

Also did not like the look of just the corner cabinet, the new plan wil make more sense when I have the pics of the next cabinet in place.

>>How do you get your pics in line w/ the text like that? I can't seem to get the HTML text right to point to my picture's URL.

First and foremost, your pictures need to be stored on a web server so that you can type in the URL of the picture itself (not a page with the picture on it) and see the picture in a browser. Just saying this "in case..."

To make the image appear in a post, just do the following (I have to spell it out bit by bit or the site will grab what I type and try to turn it into an image...) :

1. Open square bracket
2. The letters IMG
3. Close square bracket
4. The actual URL, ideally pasted from the browser address line where you confirmed the picture could be viewed (this solves a lot of problems)
5. Open square bracket
6. A slash "/"
7. The letters IMG
8. Close square bracket

That should work. Good luck !

Try it with a known good image first. Paste the URL below into the IMG stuff and see if that works...

Hold on, maybe it's supposed to be lower case "img". I type it in so much I don't really know what I'm typing any more. I'll see if that works in your other thread...

EDIT -- doesn't look like the site you are using will allow itself to be used as an "image dispenser". Webshots is like that as well. I believe photobucket works OK if you don't go through the TinyURL interface.

Just to make sure the Axiom site is still working properly, here's a known good image :
