Yeah, that was fun. Helped by the many beers already in our system...

Me: Yeah, I have 206.
ALCO: That's not too bad, almost two C to Europe.
Me: No. I have 2. 0. 6.
ALCO: :eek:

I've currently below 2,500 on both OneWorld USA and UA.

I thought it was possible in the past, but I could be wrong.

It is still possible to enter all the Club Acelas with a P Club membership; I do it all the time.

And I thought I was bad off with my F redemption to LGA in June.

The Polk Audio Atrium 45s aren't bad and you can probably find them for around $120/pair. Like all outdoor speakers, the frequency range is a little weak but these produce pretty decent sound.

Hmm, I'll have to go look at the graphs on those. I don't need to rattle windows three houses down but I do like a little low end punch in my music. I like Klipsch products but at $250 a pair, they are out of my price range at the moment.

Thanks CO 1E! I know it's not much, but it beats hanging out in the station.

I have about half a million SkyTeam USA, 35,000 BD, and am 2.5 credits from a WN ticket - I think I'll have a couple opportunities to redeem award travel.

Aye, 75Hz rolloff is not particularly wonderful. On the upside, they're around $100 a pair, and I could get a separate outdoor sub, but that seems excessive.

Indeed. Coming to Austin next week? ;)

I'm down to four digits in DL after I liquidated most of the account in February while I was still DL plat.

Finding inexpensive outdoor speakers that will give you a decent low end punch may be difficult.

I don't think a sound investment strategy has ever included following the advice of someone else. It's best to do your own research and buy/sell based on your own findings.

Only IF you fully understand valuations and risks. If you do take advise from someone make sure they know what they are talking about too.

Thus is my dilemma. :) I also don't like not being able to listen to them before I buy.

A buddy of mine just installed a set on his back porch and he liked them, so I may see what he wound up doing.

I have an older model pair of these from my dj days in my storage:
