A couple of general inquiries for all my friends in this great forum; first of all, is there anyone in here, with the home theater surround hobby bug, that isn't married yet? It seems that I am on an island all by myself here with regard to this as everyone makes references to "the wife" or "the family room" and it seems that way on other boards I frequent, too, such as Home Theater Forum.com; seems EVERY MEMBER has a wife or fiance or some such arrangement; I am 30 and haven't taken the plummet into matrimony yet, and I sometimes feel as if Im all alone in this hobby of mine with no one to share the movie watching experience with; sure, my current girlfriend (we're on the rocks right now, and on top of that, she went to Florida for a few weeks to be with her family for the holidays...I couldnt go I have to work) watches DVDs in surround with me at times, but for the most part, its like there is such an alienation of sorts when I think of coming home to that studio apartment where there is no wife waiting, etc; I dont live with anyone. Can anyone else relate to being into this home theater hobby yet living alone at the same time?

And as I contemplate moving from where I currently live in New York, and moving to where my only family is in Las Vegas, Nevada, I wonder about the intricacies of moving...especially all my audio equipment. Anyone have any experiences to share regarding the moving process? Once I get all the home theater gear set up wherever I end up, will it sound like it once did; is the re-setup process difficult when moving audio gear when one moves? Does it perform the same once all calibration settings are made once again, etc? Is there anything to be concerned about in this regard?

Thanks, friends.
