Yes, I doubt I'll get one. If I hadn't bought an expensive piece of jewelry and a new SUV already, I'd buy one now. I have two bonds that would easily cover my expense on all the gear but I want the interest on them through October. I also want to see that my 3500's are reliable enough to trade in my 1.25's. I'm actually thin for funds this year.

Next year unless we go off a cliff, it won't make a significant difference. I'll have a lot more money that is tax free for the rest of my life. I don't know why Ivan doesn't by at least five pairs as an investment.

Regarding the "pairs", my friend says the reason the Anniversaries are available individually is because folks like to purchase three for home theater. He has the price sheet available to his eyes and says there is nothing on it regarding availability being only in pairs. He said the "pairs" is "ridiculous", his words not mine. I take his word for it but for me it's a moot point. They will all be gone by November.

Best
