Well if the Marantz ever gives up , You can be comfy getting the ERC-1 . I have been totally happy with the performance & sound of it .

I got my UPA-5 yesterday after talking to you guys. Got it out, turned it on to make sure its okay. All blu lights.

Then re-packed as I'm not allowed it until xmas.

Wife thinks it's funny too. Box is sitting in HT right under the screen.

I had a bad nights sleep.

Have fun 4x12

Very nice, and love the room/furnishing to boot! You have a new rating.

Yeah, I'd set it up when the wife isn't home and then throw a cinder block or two in the box and wrap it back up.... then see if the wife notices a change to the setup. Then when Christmas comes act all innocent and puzzled as to what happened.

She will notice, and I am not the best liar. Always have a nervous grin

I'm going to try talking nicely and see if I can get the kids to give me some of the blu's I have on order instead.

amp74s... but now that we're on the subject, I just checked your setup and only have the same comments. Nice setup, and love all the wood/furnishings. You, too sir, have a new rating.

They usually have a very good sale around the holidays, and it will involve alot more than just the UPA-5.
