K! i just got my after Christmas present! I managed to snipe a set of very rare metal liquid cooled 5.75" upper midrange drivers out from under some stereo geezers nose! I blew one of mine out the other day pushing 1500 Watts or so through these things, and though these aren't the ideal replacement, they have the same internals and can be tamed with a simple -3db switch to the crossover.

This is the best Christmas present possible! I expected to pay 2x or more than I did, but my sniping abilities never gave the guy a chance to counter-bid!

He's in the mafia. :yep:

EDIT: Ow and got me a late Xmas present this morning from my brother's friend who collects DVD's. He knows I like Robocop, so he gave me his copy of the Criterion edition of the original RC, i.e. the edition that has every gore scene re-added that was taken out. :rock:

boxing day...

copious amounts of beer and food...

I like the sound of it.

Why have we not celebrated that popularly here in the states?

A Very Super Market 12-27-08 04:58 PM

Maybe because the store owners don't like mobs of crazed shoppers ripping each other to shreds.

Its the one time when Canadians will be *******s.
