We had some Landsharks about a week ago, I have been collecting beer caps for the bar, but no plain caps anything different and we have to drink them, so my wife buys 6 of something different on occasion. Don't know what I'm going to do with them yet, but it was a good idea even if I don't use them. I do the same thing with coffee, sometimes just drink it room temp, kind of a different taste compared to hot, not bad at all.

I was sitting on the front porch today drinking a cold beer watching my wife cut the grass. I was thinking about how hot it must be for my wife pushing the mower when an old woman from next door walked up on the porch and sternly said "here you are sitting in the shade on the front porch drinking a cold beer watching your wife out there in this heat pushing that mower. You should be hung". I said "I am, that's why she's out there pushing the mower". Keith

we need all of them lol i like my pc bouncing and crying laughing

from tears of joy to tears of sad

That is funny. I like../d putin or did. The guys falling off every scale of being liked seems to be. What a shame once to be pretty cool and in the pic above let alone his actions his true colors shine through

Thank you Carl. Iv turned down several in the past 2 year at $2k a pop and so many simply failing. Looking like my new insurance will cover me good now. With meds many only hear of on the news or surgery im actually able to move around now keeping in mind not to go too far with my body, just a bit of activity at a time to notice effects. None the less in the past week i have been able to complete and actually get ahead of my wants and needs in preparation if i lose more mobility to walk. After going to Indy yesterday then a moment at the horse track it was rough getting up getting ready for the day...just take a little magic pill that tells my brain no your fine lol medicine does work. its amazing. Cheers

I had a thread i was about to post as well about the laughs it exposed. At least once a day klipsch forum makes me laugh into tears lol Boxx you kill it every time lol. Many cheers to you my friend! Many cheers to many others as well. I laughed for 30 minutes straight Boxx. lol your great. That thread is hilarious. It should have the bad material deleted and left with the funny parts. Well over an hour now im not in tears but my pc is still bouncing off my gut lol i love this place. i'll still be laughing tomorrow. just hope i stop by 9a.m. monday morning i have my 14th and 15th, another double ephidural procedure scheduled lol yes i have to hold very still no laughing...thanks a lot lol this place is the best

And I would rather be in bed with the neighbors daughter ........long sigh! Time for the second cup..... Cheers Gents At least you have something to look at now and then, all iv got in the Burb's is Tweekers, sometimes you spot a good lookin honey, stop and take a real good look and there it is "Tweeker" body around 110 Lbs and a 120 year old face.......Dam just thinkin about it make me reach for the Scotch

I'd hit it.

I'd rather be sick in bed, than have a cold.

Good idea & hope it soothes your throat & you feel better soon.

Hey now i have been proud of my lawn mower since I was in my early 20s, my wife has all ways done a wonderful job. Now the question remains, are you proud of the clothes washer?

LOL, No mirrors here and don't want one around me. I might fall in love...again.

Very interesting. Man im glad those didnt happen although sure they were ok. Look to be a kevlar cones w metal dust cover like paradigm monitors made today. Iv had some of them. They seen the light of day and were jammed back in the box and taken back. I actually do still have some speakers that do look very similar tho not paradigm

Had one new; real powerhouse. Lightning got mine. http://houston.craigslist.org/ele/4416269935.html DENON DRA-1035R Receiver - $95 (SW Houston- Bellaire) Barely used - in good condition - been stored for a long time - should give new owner great pleasure! The DRA-1035R will give plenty of power for most uses do NOT contact me with unsolicited services or offers post id: 4416269935 posted: 7 hours agoemail to friend

I need advice on picking the appropriate speaker for my room. Room is 12' x 16' with 8 foot ceiling. I'll be using a Primaluna Dialogue Integrated amp. I mainly listen to jazz. My first choice is cornwall iii or heresy with a possible subwoofer. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks

He is all show.......you could take him Zako!

Wow that would be interesting. To see what klipsch has had that didnt make it to production. In the past we have seen many variations that didnt cut it for long. The klipsch speakers from the past are such an interesting platform that has grown so many different directions. Lots of interesting thoughts. One day the current models that didnt make it would make great visuals and provide interesting specs...Many, many years from now. That such as early heritage have been shown and none exist xept 1 pair in the entire world that many years ago were meant to be used in mono rather than stereo. Last sentence i wrote is an actual true statement or actually happened with early klipsch heritage from what i gather. A pair of shorthorns if i recall correctly

Well Tarheal the good news is tanning season is right around the corner.

very welcome Mike, it sure was fun hanging out with Roy yesterday. Reminded me of old times

also... take a look at ALK/fastanes offerings for direct fit replacement.

Bet it will be even more interesting if he doesn't!

Good hunting!

i'm sure Bob would be glad to ship you a pair. brand new one owner

This is a very impressive sub, it digs very deep and its super clean!!!!!!!!

Happy Friday Inmates Its 5 o'clock somewhere

And I would rather be in bed with the neighbors daughter ........long sigh! Time for the second cup..... Cheers Gents

See someone got the punch line I posted above...

Stereo Review did a really favorable article in June '91; I have a copy, somewhere, but, have not been able to find the article on-line. Did find several copies of the mag for sale.

I'm back at it. I Removed and tested the 2sk170 and 2sj74, both good. Started checking resistor values, none are burnt, but R11 measures 1.3M ohms, That might be an issue for a .47R. Replaced the resistor and re-biased the amp. All is working properly, sounds great except for a low level hum that only occurs with my preamps connected - some sort of ground loop I suspect. During biasing, I had an oscilloscope on the output, and was clear the trace was cleaner biased at 1.2mv. however my instructions mention biasing close to 0mv. In the end, I stopped tweaking at 0.4mv. Checked temp at both heat sinks, approximately 125 deg F. Listening test, this amp has only been running 8 hours and sounds great. I have been running this amp on my personal speaker design ( The Yields). These speakers utilize an Audio Nirvana Super 10 full range driver from 200+. Immediately I verified Mr. Pass's depiction of this amps characteristics, Bass is spot on, detail is amazing, and this amp is unforgiving of response spikes typically found in full range drivers. Nelson Pass quote. "F5: Dynamic, accurate, a little unforgiving. On speakers with peaks in the top end, it will reveal as too bright and annoying. On speakers with a slightly diminished top end, it adds a little sparkle, this in spite of being flat out at high as 500 KHz. Good control - if your speaker is a little boomy, it will tend to tighten it up. Overall, probably the most neutral of the FW amps. It will drive 4 ohm loads without particular issues. Oh, and it does sound very good." I could not agree more. Dave

Even more, now... It has gone way beyond whether to mow in a box pattern or to mow row over row.... What does a Boxx pattern look like?

if lightning hadn't got mine, I'd still be using it...

Or unusual things.... A snowstorm in Ovilla, Texas......

Would your TV be on the 25' wall or the 12' wall?

Any top line ht from klipsch is going to get you to great places. I have a flagship reference ht and a heritage ht in another room. Heritage will be a much better value if you find good deals imo. But you probably wont have a matching system in the room. You will probably end up with different color speakers all over your room unless you are willing to wait a long time to match everything. Plus you will have to work on the older speakers also. My advise is to get heritage but you should keep those things in mind if you do.

Hey now i have been proud of my lawn mower since I was in my early 20s, my wife has all ways done a wonderful job.

Good luck with snagging them. Let us know if you get them. Mine are 1977 model (bought in the Chicago area). They are in good shape, but the crossovers did need upgrading. Luckily, I had a pair of sonicap AA crossovers (bought off the forum) to swap in. They filled in the wall nicely:

LOL, Sounds good to me, Sumatra coffee. Thanks

Funny. I look at the pretty girls and think about how babies are made...

Mark- Your price is not out of line considering the ALK crossovers and the effort you have put into the paint job. I for one appreciate the 'spatter' paint job that gives the LS's a gig ready vibe. Further I dig your crusty sense of humor to ward off time wasting tire kickers. I hope you get all fourteen hundred of those dollars for those righteous speakers. Don't let a little hazing from forum vets bother you they are like big brothers - they will grow to love you. As for newbs that thread crap - I'm speachless.

that's a great idea!!! Volti even sells braces & grills...

If ya have long hair an a beard. Don't tell nobody and shave it all off. Really messes with their mind. Dad did not recognize me in the daylight and thought someone was stealing my antique bike. Grand Dad asked Dad "Who was that," Wife did not recognize me when she got into bed when she got off work. Police officer wanted before and after pictures because anyone that could change appearance that fast had to be doing something illegal. Friend's wife answered the door with dumb look on her face and said "Can I Help You." Yep, if they never seen you that way it sure messes with em.

I kind of just went through the same thing so I can tell you what helped me alot. I was using marine spar varnish on a bar which was many square feet, and it dries even faster than Poly so this should help. I used marine spar varnish because the bar is outdoors and poly can not take sunlight and big temp changes, but poly will give the same gloss. I put the varnish on quickly with the brush in sections and used one of those cheap 3'' foam brushes and just slowly passed it over where the varnish was just applied, just lightly dragging with the brush. What this does is smooth out the varnish and remove all the bubbles. It worked great , the brush size you use may be different considering the size of the piece and they are dirt cheap. It's the cheap foam brushes that have a point on the end, hold at an angle and just drag without pressure and it removes all the bubbles, it really works, varnished a bar top with 6-8 coats (lost track) that is over 40 sq feet counting the back part of the bar and no bubbles.

He was doing nearfield listening and missed it all together.

Pinging the Chinese and Aussies say. Yet to confirm?

Then it's more than likely not a ground loop issue.
