@BLACK MARKT, think you can make it to cars and coffee in Irvine early Saturday? You are up in LA, it is kind of a drive and 0-dark-early.

I beg to differ ... I think it sounds amazing
Times when I don't want all the sound I simply close the valve.

I totally agree with you. I love the sound with the valves open. I just think is important that people realize how loud it is in comparison to the other systems on the market.
