To catch you up. My knee is still screwed up. So the answer to my question is yes.
Our stereo started making some annoying high pitch noises. We also rearranged the living room and the towers of power (as Steve calls them) had to go. I knew this day was coming, and I brought it up a while ago on my own.
Luckily, after listening to some stuff at Magnolia/Best Buy I went down to Resolution Audio Video in Ballard (check these guys out if you can), a high-end store I went into once to pass the time while Sarah shopped. I assumed I could never get into high-end audio, even when "you want, I buy" was on the table. However, I talked to Larry, the owner, and he's taken good care of us ever since.
Our new system is 2 channel analog only at 122W down from 7.1 Dolby Digital THX whatever the hell at 770W and 2 bookshelf speakers down from the towers of power, a center, 4 bookshelf speakers, and a subwoofer. For music, which is about 90% of it for us, the new puny system absolutely smokes the old one in every way. Didn't know what we were missing before, but it was a lot.
Oh, and someone called Nollie old at the dog park yesterday.
