Any plans for the weekend?

I have to work this weekend. Other than that, I am counting down the days. I will do a little yard work and try to rest as I have a really busy week at work next week.

I can not wait to hear your thoughts of dual submersives. Maybe then I can be convinced to get 2 trinities. I keep telling myself that one will be more than enough.

The 110's were $1700 msrp.

The S1 v3 P-Be was $2099 but Paradigm just increased the price of the Sig line yesterday. They're now $2499 and $2599 for gloss black.

The Sigs are now seriously over priced. I got an inside deal on my S1's and only paid $1100 for them.

Before the price increase the msrp's were close enough that someone would cross shop these two models, I can't see that happening now.

I've got to work on Saturday also, sucks doesn't it?

The most difficult thing I've found trying to integrate one large powerful subwoofer is all the output coming from a single location. You may have better luck than I.

I think they would compare pretty well with the exception of the bass, in that area they don't compare at all. Haven't listened to the 160's enough to really make a fair comparison.

It gets the job done.

I originally intended to buy the 160's but got offered to good of a deal to pass these up, I really liked the 160's but couldn't get both pairs at the time. My wife really isn't big on the black so eventually the Digms will go back in that location and a Dyn setup will be in the family room. The 110's will be used as surrounds.

Don't you have the 110's?

Not much Eric, this day is already starting to drag.

It is a descent little setup, these speakers won't be staying in this location, that's why I haven't run the speaker cables through the stands. My wife also bugs me about getting rid of the cheap surge protector with the ugly yellow cord. One of these days.

What's up with you? Any plans for the weekend?

I really should bring my TT back up to this setup, never use it downstairs. In fact it's sitting in the furnace room collecting dust. Don't have any Sepultura but could blast some Metallica or Iron Maiden.

Hope you have a great weekend, got any plans?
