bro, yr Anthony Gallo bought how much?

The A'Diva Ti 5.1 is $3999 and the Micro 5.1 is $1999. There should be a 10% discount if pay by cash/cheque.

I bought the in-ceiling mount and "upgrade" the TR1(part of Micro 5.1) to a TR3............:)

U deciding to buy AG too?

Quote from 2nd post

1. simple, clean and spacious. With lots of storage areas (meet my wife request)

2. Lol..I am particular about my toilet(MBR), spacious and neat....

3. Easy to maintain and clean...thus no or minimal grooves, raised platform so that we can clean the floor....

4. Ceiling fans is a must........I hate standing fans, takes up space....Failed....lol

5. Kitchen, large top as we do our cooking mostly from individual induction cookers....use electricity less gas...= less fried= less oily...lol

6. Kitchen, to accommodate one fridge and one freezer (my mum loved to stock up food....)...lol

7. Lasting.........and.....hopefully it get feature in the ID website/magazine as my last reno...lol

Sliding door in my mum room up. Luckily my mum pass it. Initially was concern as before the reno, she gave the thumb's up that her bed can face the toilet door as long as the door is closed. But after finishing it, she still feel very uncomfortable. Thus this sliding door. We remove the original door and it is much better now as her toilet is more spacious without the door. So she is happy.....:)

Finally, my renovation is completed. Or I would say 99% completed. Final touch-up to be done after all the electronics stuff are installed........:)

So, overall again I must say it is another worry-free reno. Very well handled by Angeline and Kelvin, all concerns addressed even if it required changes in design or additional things to be made. That is not to say one do not need to do the quality checks. It is still best one did it oneself but Angeline always has no qualms to make the necessary correction.

There were some designs we do not feel comfortable with, but we go along with her. And I must say it comes out very good.....lol.....I never learn.....)

So now, wait for TV and furniture and move in date,,,,,,,,,,,
