The women of the Pacific Northwest demand satisfaction!

Or men, I guess. Not sure which way you were going with that, Mark.

With 4 ep800s, his clients will feel the earth move.

Ooh, I got the shipment notification for my DSP. I should be back in business in the middle of the week, then. Thanks, Amie!

Ooh, I already got my DSP. That was 1-day, not 2-day. The DSP is cold from the weather, so I guess I'll let it acclimate before I hook it up. I'm excited. And my VP180 should arrive via FedEx Ground in a couple of hours. And then UPS should deliver Brave in the afternoon, so this evening will be a good one.

Looking forward to a report, Charles!

You're going to find my reporting skills lacking, as usual.

It sounds amazing. But I can't tell you that I notice it sounding more amazing than before. I listened to a bit of 2-channel music first. Lykke Li sounds phenomenal. But yeah, I just wouldn't be able to quantify any differences, and you wouldn't be able to trust them if I tried. I'd definitely be interested in direct comparisons of different versions of the code if I make it to Axiom sometime.

Like I mentioned in the LED thread, the LED on the front of the DSP isn't lighting up. The DSP itself functions fine, so I won't worry about the LED. I'll have Axiom fix it the next time there's a code update.

The VP180 did arrive, so I hooked that up as well. There certainly feels like there's more presence in the center, and it seems less distinctly like its own channel, but rather part of a seamless wall. My friend was over, and she chose The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo to watch (before we went to see Skyfall at the theater, so apparently she likes Daniel Craig), and let me just say again, I'm really loving how my whole system sounds working together. Blu-ray + my sound system are making me smile a lot. Thanks, Axiom!

I'm still looking forward to a lot more experimenting with placement after I move my system to the basement. I'm sure I can get even more out of what I've cobbled together.

Is the LED blue? If so, it must be repaired immediately!

and thanks for the review. It certainly would be tough to do a comparison after the unit had been out of your hands for a while. Glad to hear the effect as a whole is poative though.

LOL...I wanted to write something along the same lines, Murph!
