Why no Virtual System pics??

I’m surprised that not more people have pictures off their set-ups... there are very few contributors, some regular contributors, some long time members, with zero pictures of their systems..
Why do you think that is?  Are they worried that someone is going to steal their stereo because they see pictures of it?  Or are people ashamed of their systems?  
I don’t get it.  It’s much easier to understand where someone is coming from when you see their setup!

post some pictures people!!!  Sheesh


It’s like showing up to the basket ball court with no ball.  Going to the ski slopes, sittin in the lodge, talking about how awesome the powder is with no ski’s.

How are they with spare parts?

Check Pinzgauers. They are, in general, much more nimble and easier to live with. Not exactly your Range Rover Vogue when it comes to luxury, but they climb like a goat. Depending on configuration, it can almost be a practical grocery shopping vehicle. And with sizes of SUVs these days, it is (comparatively) not even that big.

"$278 for the AMG branded one, $105 for the "regular" Mercedes part, same exact part, different part numbers and prices."
Check ABS modules within the Volkswagen group. It used to be $1000 vs. $1500 vs. $3000 depending on the dealership (eg. Audi vs. Bentley) you bought it in. They lowered the prices since then a bit, I heard.

uberwaltz,

I guess you get Cindy and I got Alessandro. He is kind of frayed while Cindy seems to be aging well. Next time, I am picking Cindy, too.

"911 guys are always under the hood working on their cars."
That does not seem like a good advertisement.

Having said that, 612 can be a nice daily driver. If for nothing else, then because it plays SACDs and DVD-A. On a Bose system.

mikelavigne,

Thanks for invite. Your system is quite something. It does reset one's expectations of her/his own achievements. Kudos.

Reading first few posts, it seemed like a decent idea. Then came mikelavigne's link and..."How do you post anything after seeing this?"
