Here ya go! Please enjoy your coma! I've since added a second Rotel 1080 amp to
match the 1075 and and added a pair of Snell J3's for listing to certain types
of non orechestral classical recordings. I removed the Conrad Johnson amp which
is now in the bedroom. The TV is high def of course. Watching and hearing In

I have a Samsung HD setup....not as good as yours but I got it free....being
that we sold Samsung components for awhile.....
My question is why do you have the amp and other equipment right in front of
the TV?.....I can't see but is that your subwoofer on top of the TV?

the TV?.....I can't see but is that your subwoofer on top of the TV?

The amp is on the floor by the TV so I can have short cable runs to everything
(except the rear channel).
The unit on top of the set is a B&W CDM center channel with top fireing tweeter
housing.

The sub is actually next to the sofa. It's a very powerful Paradigm 2200, rated
down to 18hz, but probably more like 22 or 24.

You can see it here, big box at left....this is an old pic before rears were
upgraded.

Really? Which amp do you run and what kind of system? The cost of my system is
not that high, under 8K actually. That's a lot to some people, but then I know
people with amps that cost 10K each. It's all relative.
I consider my system pretty good for an apartment setup. When we move to a
house I'll go all the way with exotics.

As I can not see your famous TV system?

This is with available light and no flash. With the black curtains do
you realize what I would have to do to get them lit correctly, while
preserving the lighting scheme.


Then you should have exposed for the gear and eliminated the curtains from
the equation. Ever heard of the zone system? Spot metering? How about
looking at the image in the camera's screen, deciding it's too dark, and
telling the camera to open up a stop or two?

Why take one crap pciture and leave it at that, especially when the
wonderful world of digital affords one the ability to review instantly and
get it better next time - a few scant seconds later?


Let's teach you a few things!


Uh-huh.


Here's a pic of an initial trial setup for the system right after the
new carpet was down. The curtains arent' even hung properly yet.

Remote flash kinda stark, eh?


Maybe so, but if the purpose is to show off the gear, then there's little
point in going for artistic nonsense that shows nothing other than a few
vague boxes.



It's possible to bounce the flash or
card it, of course, but the pics are fine. They were both posted
together. The "dark" version is great at full resolution of 5 MP
taken with the C50.


But useless at the webcam res that you post them in. Which begs the
question, why post a crap picture?


AOL's easy designer doesn't help.


What effect did this have?


Are you learning yet?


Are you?


With large format camera, such an 8X10, i'd have made a double
exposure by slipping the sheet..not that you know what that means!


Why would you make a double exposure? Aside from that, since an 8x10 uses
sheet film, one would expect that the shutter mechanism doesn't have an
'expose-once' lock, like you'd find on a 35mm - so what's the point in
messing about with the dark slide? Surely that will be more likely to induce
camera shake than a cable release.

Good catch, but no. I believe you were thinking that Horass'
last boyfriend was complaining...

So, you're admitting Horass was your last boyfriend?

You must be thinking of Horass.

"Simple Simon" wrote in message
...
Not me but that WAS your last boyfriend's major complaint . . .


"Jonathan Ganz" wrote in message

Well, you accused me of going soft...

And, just what's wrong with mauve-colored cushions on a
boat? And, isn't it just a wee bit presumptuous to judge other's
tastes in colors?

Pardon. At least Bob doesn't have Mauve on his boat.

"Simple Simon" wrote in message

Mauve!

Well, at least the purple isn't on your boat.

I would like to see the rest of the system....
As I'm trying to induce a coma on myself.....

Here ya go! Please enjoy your coma! I've since added a

second
Rotel
1080
amp to
match the 1075 and and added a pair of Snell J3's for

listing
to
certain
types
of non orechestral classical recordings. I removed the

Conrad
Johnson
amp
which
is now in the bedroom. The TV is high def of course.

Watching
and
hearing
In
the Flesh or ELO live or Steely Dan concerts can bring a

tear
to
the
eye.

Why would you make a double exposure?

Oh boy. You know nothing about still work. The photo was taken to show the
lighting as is, not the gear, which is clear and bright in the second photo.
Half slides on an 8x10 cassette is standard, exposing twice, then dodging with
the enlarger.
You clearly never learned how a camera works or worked in a darkroom.
