Having recently completed (but not "finished") my Two Pi's, I placed them in the basement yesterday morning to break in the drivers, replacing a pair of RS speakers in a system I put together for my wife to listen to while on the treadmill. Although the space is terrible (unfinished basement: lots of concrete and cinder block), I didn't even try to set up the speakers properly (one on floor,the other on a rickety cabinet), and I'm still playing with the port length (my mother in law threw out the cardboard tubes, thinking they were trash, so I'm improvising), my wife returned from her late-afternoon basement run to declare that she was thrilled with the speakers -- the none-too-subtle message being that it would be very nice if I left them in the basement for her use.

What's a poor guy to do? Aha, a double opportunity! An extra Christmas present and an excuse to have to build another pair, or even those Four Pis I'm lusting after. An extra bonus: as my woodworking skills improve (first woodworking project since I built a shoeshine box in fourth grade), my second attempt should be better than my first.

Ho, Ho, Ho.
