Ray, I'm also on Viasat and DTV. Viasat oversell their systems capacity. Been with them since Wild blue days! Only options Hughsnet or Viasat. What kind of downloads speeds can you get? That has been an adventure of its own! The price we pay for s...

Just curious Ray, what do you do for internet? I have satellite. That's my only option, so deep in the woods cell phone is not very good. I have to keep a land line, AT&T won't run fiber. John

Oleschool, I did look at the acid product your going to use. When it comes out right you can obtain some very cool results. First time I saw it was in a bar and it really looked cool. You want to have variances in the colors to give it that patina...

If the concrete is finished with a gas powered trowel, you can get it so slick and it develops a black hue to it. It actually burns the concrete. I'm in NC to, anything outdoors sealed is difficult. Indoors with what oleschool wants to do with the...

Thank You for the construction tip George. I would have never thought that it was the head of the screw coming through the drywall! Forgive my wording! George you are wrapped far too tight!

It would be pretty shabby construction if the screwed in dry wall were pushed away from the studs by too much insolation. If I were to do a room from scratch, 2x6, I would shoot liquid foam insolation into my walls and fill every nook and cranny! ...

He used 2x6, so if you use typical 4" fiberglass bats, its not going to fill the void. If he used a r36 insolation for 2x6 framing, that would be a much better application. I know of applications where the foam (which hardens) would fill any voids...

I used that acid stain in a 24x24x17H building where I make wine. Results vary with what you want to achieve. Your going to want to seal it. I assume a moisture barrier is under the slab? Your basically etching the concrete with the acid. You can ...

Roberjerman, apology excepted. You didn't have to do that yet you did! That speaks volume. Thank You... 
Van Den Hul Grail Vs Grail SE
I will never ask the opinion of any gear on Audiogon ever again. I appreciate varyat and rauliruegas chiming in. Some words of advice, ones audio gear, our car, or home, does not hold one iota of importance. BTW, I have a 1993 Ford Ranger! I also ... 
Van Den Hul Grail Vs Grail SE
Thanks acman! Wow!  Interesting response. 1%??? You think the post was supposed to impress?  Sad response on a number of levels. Maybe you like soup from can? Like to buy expired meats? Don't know, or care. Some people have higher end gear, it was... 
Can Monoblock be split for analog and digital
That's what I'm afraid of and I think you are correct. Even with a high quality switch degrading has to occur.  
Can Monoblock be split for analog and digital
It sounds like the switch is the way to go. Just need to find a good a quality switch. The ones on Amazon are by Douk audio, I have read some issues with them. I would rather pay a little more for a better quality switch, I could use 2, two way sw...
