Very sorry to hear this Jack. You and your countrymen are some of the most resilient on the planet, so I know you will all bounce back!
Back to the Drawing Board
We've just been hit by the most rainfall on record and water has gotten into the listening room

Everything has been disconnected and eventually almost everything must come down. I am bummed but what I am going through is nothing more than an inconvenience compared to what millions of my countrymen are suffering.
We pride ourselves in our ability to bounce back, smiles on our faces. In a few months I hope to reseal the room with better engineered solutions and get the system singing again. In the meantime please join me in praying for those affected by the deluge.
Jack,
I'm sorry to read what happened to your basement. I am certain that you will build an even better room and perhaps add a system to control the power source. Once my music room is done, you can come over as often as you like.
Jack-I don't know I missed this when you originally posted this, but I did. I'm glad to know your family is ok and with a much further secondary, your actual gear is ok. I know what a bummer it is to have your room flooded as it happened to me several years ago in my listening room. Every time I hear about another flood in the PI I always think about you and your family and hope you are ok and usually you never mention anything about what has happened. You have been very lucky until this happened. I'm sure your room will emerge better than ever which is hard to imagine because it was already super-cool looking.
First inspection looks promising scope of work might not be as huge as we expected. Fingers crossed! Thanks buddy!
Thanks Tim!
Tick Tock, Tick Tock.
Half of the new FR701 fabric went up today. Poor guys were freezing down there since it has to be cold, cold cold when you frame up fabric lest it sag later on.
Tomorrow the RJ control cables for the lighting. Next week, the new bar, general cleaning and hopefully SYSTEM SET UP!
