    Kentley,

    You do know that in a cylindrical dome there are very few if any standing waves, so
    imaging and soundstage is totally bang on. I'm sure Alaska has a few ig's for rent.
    You should try it sometime. bounce

    I'm saddling up the dogs as we speak. Be there sometime late February. I'll bring a solar array for power.
    And, of course, congrats on the build(s). What equipment did you, er, erect?

    Now that's a man-cave of the first order, excluding first-order harmonics, of course.

    deepee,

    Harmonics are good, easy to heat, only problem is the
    umbrellas over the equipment.

    Have you considered shrink-wrapping your gear to dispense with the umbrellas? I read somewhere on the Web that it's a good idea, plugs all the holes.
