    get some clear heat-shrink tubing, put it over the number labels, then shrink it.
    Those labels will eventually fall off, otherwise.
    Good idea that I had not thought of. Actually, one is loose already.

    Thanks.

    Resolution

    Apparently the issues with the damaged S5160 are solved, and a new one is on its way.

    Also, I'll be keeping the two S300 and two S150 Synthesis® amps. har har

    It's all stacked down in the bottom floor now. Fangio has a couple of picture of it which I hope he'll post at some time.

    I had to make room for my GF's new Chrysler Crossfire convertible in the garage. No room for discussion there...

    Quite an extensive package. Looking forward to hear more about the installation process, and final finetuning.

    Thanks a lot for your hospitality Doug. Beautiful home, and it was a perfect afternoon.

    Hmmm, tough call - did she get the turbo charged SRT-6? With a 5.1 second 0-60, that might be worthy of usurping your JBL's for garage space...

    Since we're waiting on the install for listening notes, and chance we'll get test drive impressions on the Chrysler?

    Off thread

    She loves the car; it's not the SRT.

    I have an '89 Chrysler's TC by Maserati, and I've always had a hard time convincing her to go for top-down rides in it. With her Crossfire, she puts the top down all the time. Go figure. She drives to work with the top down. She takes her co-workers out to lunch with the top down. She meets me for dinner with the top down. She drives home with the top down.

    In the TC, I installed an all-JBL system in place of the Infinity. In her Crossfire, she still loves the Infinity system, which sounds pretty good, BTW.

    I've driven the car just once, and I have to say it handles and drives just fine. I was impressed with its stability. However, the little four-cylinder turbo in my TC is actually more aggressive. I suppose if I drove the Crossfire without her in the car I'd push it harder.

    Surprise!

    To the Synthesis® dealer's credit, they got tired of waiting on the repair of the S5160, so they're just going to send a brand new replacement instead. They did this without my asking. I've been so involved in the daily drama of the room that I haven't thought about the equipment, so this was all the dealer taking charge of the process.

    I must say I'm gratified.

    (Yes, I know this contradicts an earlier post.)

    Thanks. It's all a bit daunting, really, and whatever you pay for the gear is only the beginning of your spending.

    AudiogoN maybe? This was an authorized dealer transaction. I didn't do it through ebay.
