Time for a Swim in your Spa
The evolution of the hot tub has never ceased to amaze me.
In recent years, hot tub and spa manufacturers have designed countless improvements into their products.
A number of my friends have purchased spas in the last couple years, and they have all invested in optional upgrades such as surround sound systems.
A few of them have even purchased spas with massive LCD televisions built into them!
It seems that the latest trend in hot tubs and home spas is the new swim spas.
These spas are so cool!
A swim spa is a pool that is slightly bigger than a standard hot tub, but smaller than a traditional swimming pool.
It uses a propeller system or some jets to create a current, and the current allows the user to swim in a stationary position.
This is often called treadmill swimming.
A lot of people use their swim spas for aerobic exercise, jogging, or for traditional hydrotherapy.
Due to the compact size of these spas, they can be installed either indoors or outside.
The neatest thing about these spas is that the strength of the current can be adjusted to accommodate individual users.
What a wonderful way to spend your cardiovascular workout!
These spas come in a variety of sizes.
They tend to be about 16 feet long, 6 feet wide, and 4 feet deep on average.
They are available in above-ground and below-ground models.
I went to a local spa shop last week, and did a wet test of their premier model.
It was absolutely wonderful.
I had the pleasure to test a model that had a separate section at the end that was a traditional spa.
It was the best of both worlds!
Although I just purchased a new backyard spa last year, I am seriously considering upgrading to this new swim spa.
They are slightly more expensive than a traditional hot tub, but after testing one I think they are well worth the price.
I don't think my husband is going to be too impressed with the idea, but perhaps I could get one with a big screen television and a surround sound system installed.
I'll get back to you later.
My husband just got home from work..

Axiom Launches New Architectural Loudspeaker Series
Dwight, ON (ContentDesk) October 20, 2005 -- Axiom Audio, www.axiomaudio.com, the award-winning loudspeaker manufacturer known for delivering outstanding performance and value to its customers has developed an in-wall loudspeaker line that delivers no-compromise sonic performance.The Problem: Many current in-wall speakers rely on the cavity behind the wall for speaker loading but have widely variable performance because the sheetrock wall surface vibrates with the rear output from the drivers, producing deeply colored and inaccurate sound. And if no in-wall cabinet is included, the driver's rear output will produce distorted sound in the neighboring room.The Solution: Overcoming these drawbacks, Axiom's new Architectural W2, W3, and W22 on-wall/in-wall hybrids feature fully integrated carefully tuned enclosures that recess into the wall, combined with an attractive exterior finished baffle that keeps the speaker's drivers well away...

Computer Monitor Sales
f you are shopping for a new computer, you usually look at the size of the hard disk first, but you should also know what monitor you are purchasing. The monitor displays the messages and data that are processed and utilized as the CPU (central processing units) speed or hard disk size.
There are two kinds of monitor technologies available on the market ? the CRT (cathode-ray tubes) monitors and LCD (liquid crystal display) monitors.
CRTs are bigger and bulkier than the LCD, and they consume a lot more power. The screen also tends to flicker. The LCD monitors are more expensive than the CRT and have less color replication.
However, LCD technology has advanced, and its viewing quality is comparable to CRT. Most people still choose the CRT monitor.
