In 2005 i decided to stop my HT madness simply because i moved to Manila for a new Job opportunity. I tuck my gears in covered with plastics and cloth. Once in a while pag umuuwi ako sa province i turn them on just to listen to music for a few hours until to a point na di na ako masyadong umuuwi. They just lie there sleeping for almost 6 years. The addiction started when i purchased my 42 Inch Pana LCD from SNS...After that i decided to bring all my gears in Manila... At muli silang buhayin...

I dont have a nice room to setup my HT but soon i will have a dedicated HT room.. Eto ang magulo kong setup for now...

Yes I agree, thank you sir...

Though it's kinda scary... Only a few days that i got a 2nd hand receiver from a member here and the next thing that went into my mind is "How about upgrading my speakers" or "Upgrading my Subs".....

I'm scared because i might not resist my urge ha ha ha.... OMG i'm totally back... ha ha ha ;D

Nice set-up sir Jason! But beware.... upgrade is INEVITABLE. ;D ;D

Ganyan din ako magaling sa Ninja moves kaya lang hindi ko naitago yong SVS at alam ni Kumander ang cost ng SVS kasi lurker din sya dito. Sabi ko na lang "pay when able" yon kasi mabait naman ako.  ;D

Congrats!
