The Lengths You ve Gone Through

My wife and I looked at 500 houses aiming to upgrade our listening room and included an evaluation by an audio engineer as a formal contingency inspection in our offer. Once we moved in (as part of our earthquake retrofit) we had an additional 6 cubic yards of reinforced concrete poured and subfloor bracing put in our crawl space as "speaker stands" to decouple our Dunlavy SC-V's from the listening room floor.

Justlisten, how much can you bench press??? Carrying two Krells, even KMA 100s, for a 1/4 mile is an Olympian feat!

Unbelievable about the Krell monos and the concrete.
I once demoed a pair of ML Aerius from a dealer about a half an hour's drive from my apartment. My 4-dr saab has a foldable back seat, so I assumed the boxed pair would fit, then came to realize they wouldn't. Fifteen minutes from when the dealer closed, I had to put one in the car, drive home, unload it, and come back for the other one!
The worst was I had to repeat the process upon returning them; I liked them but they were too big for my little room....

RCPrince,

Im no weightlifter, those amps were hanging low to the ground. A little cursing and a lot of hobling got me there.
Pls1's story is way crazy, I am looking to get out of my condo and into a home and the 1st thing I do look at is the room dimensions, unfortunatly, living in the San Franciso Bay Area, you cant be too choosy on limited means.

I've travelled to the following states to pick up various pieces of gear, some states several times each. The list includes: Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota, Iowa, Ohio, New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts, etc... I didn't bother to include Illinois even though i've gone to the furthest corners of it on several occasions. For the record, i'm located near Chicago. Sean
