First day of Watermelon Festival. Here's the booth set up!

Watermelon Festival... That's going to turn into a 'seedy' neighborhood...

Hang on OT......borrow a telephone pole from JL The major renovation occupying my summer is about done. LF has a mighty fine looking place now. Photos to follow soon. Found some good and some not so good contractors but "Hawkeye" also known as Tarheel kept folks in line. She keeps asking for one of my R2Rs We covered the walls with grass cloth in the A/V room. Carpet on the floor so we will see how it sounds. I get to furnish the pool room. Has a nice Brunswick table that will need to be tuned and leveled. Heading out to dinner with mi amigo from LA before he heads off to Germany/Holland for a vacation after filming the movie "Six". LF will be staying at her new place for the first time tonight. That's it for now....requerdos los anchovies........

Mornin' all. It's almost a weekend. Great job on that Klipsch booth at the festival. Gotta start gearing up for a brief vacation to the Durango, CO area next Wed. It's one of the prettiest parts of the state and lots to do from fly fishing to white water. Will let Better Half Unit decide since she's the one who really needs a vacation. Tarheel (Chuck) ... sounds like a successful conclusion to your career as LF's project manager. Congrats. Have a good Friday folks and cheers.

Is that sub pumping bass all day? Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk

I need one of those pop-ups MKP :-)

Yes. We are asking for anyone with skill sets to let us know. As soon as we get back from the Watermelon Festival I will be posting lots of info on the museum.

I'll bet there's a bunch of good lookin melons there....

Geeze, didn't even know they made a 2 meg portable generator! $5K a day rental?

Oldtimer, there might be some shipping cost. But i can get you anything from a 3k generator to a 2 meg and just about anything in between 20k, 30k, 100, 200k, 300k. Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk

I normally unplug the meter and clip into the 3 lines,there. Absolutely no chance of back feeding if the meter is out.

Linemans gloves or similar when in doubt. In any case take care there oldtimer. When I get tired or heated, I make mistakes, No offense meant telling you what you know. Good fortune vibes sent...

I'll trade ya.....3 AFU's, or whatever....for 2 good ones..... Sorry.....thread crap over....You guys are on it..... Never mind, you guys are trading mids, and I'm talking tweets....forgive me, it's been Singapore/Bangkok HOT here in N. Indiana.....

Yeah, you could connect a 240v generator to the input (top usually) of your houses electrical panel. Making sure to disconnect the power company's feed to your house is mandatory as you wouldn't want to back feed power to the transformer!

Hot sauce for a generator anybody? Oldtimer watched the whole electrical works get pulled off the house ya know!

Watch out for flying watermelons.

My thoughts exactly!

Conduit tube into roof pulled out, meter box pulled about two feet away from mount, roof will need repair, and it looks like rain this weekend. Makes me think usnret drove by and jettisoned the poltergeist.

The view down our driveway. Is this a good sign?

I'll be glad when it warms up a little! JK….it was 80 and 97% humidity at 6am this morning.

A new vehicle.... 2016 Buick Enclave

I've been eyeing a new avr for months. I knew I wanted a Pioneers Elite but, wasn't sure which one. Just went looking last night to see if BB had the SC 95 or 91. They had one 91 but, no preouts and what to do with the 5 channel Acurus amp. BB had slim pickings, the only other was two Elite 99's. I brought the flagship SC 99 home after careful questions on the return policy. It's a big sucker like the SC 35. What features lead to the purchase? Sub EQ, Full band phase control, Atmos and a few others. It was late so I just sat it in the HT last night. This morning I did a quick setup. Setup can be confusing due to the Atmos and the numerous configurations. You can read the 151 page manual, lol. Luckily I was familiar with most of the setup since it is similar to the SC 35. Then came autocalibration with MCACC Pro. This went a bit faster than MCACC. The sub setup consisted of full bandwidth phase control, PEQ/DSP, and standing wave control. MCACC did a great job calibrating the system and is definitely several steps above MCACC. It appears to EQ the subs below 20 Hz to my surprise. It also EQ the left and right side separately in the .2 option is chose. Music: Norha Jone just came alive and the sound was projected to the MLP with authority 20 ft. away. The full band phase control gives great imaging and separation and perfect bass, tight and clean. Nick Colionne, Celine Dion finished the music session off just as nice. Movies: Transformers Age of Extinction was even more dynamic than before. Increase TR with a lower sub trim. Dialogue clear and sharp. No harshness to the sound. I almost lost a lamp and two table top pieces. The picture quality was excellent just like the SC 35. War of The Worlds and the second Tron where very immersive also. If any one is looking for a good HT and music avr, the Pioneer's avr with MCACC Pro are no joke, they are better than good at getting great sound! I am sure I will be learning new things over the next few month after I get the Atmos speakers setup 9.2.2, wires ran, the fun stuff.

This is a fun hobby. It's not the kill, it's the thrill of the chase

CF line came just before the KLF line (thank you for the time correction SWL and for checking DTR20). KG are not in the same performance level as the KLF or the CF line or the reference either. If you like the KG5.2 and the KG5.5 then you will love the CF3 and CF4. The KLF line very often have adhesive problems on the front and rear baffles which is a PITA but they are worth fixing but the two way CF are very good they have the largest wide band horn of ANY klipsch home loudspeaker and with horns larger is better. You would need to make the jump to the K510 to make an improvement it is a little bit larger and it has a two inch throat so you are jumping up to large format drivers a jump you will never regret. What are you looking for? Regards moray james.

Yeah i have been thinking about that.Lately i do not see a whole lot of klipsch for sale on craigs,got the chorus 1 for 500.00 and the forte 11 for 480.00 but I would love to hear a pair of chorus 11..Ebay shipping will kill you.it took a year to get what i got.But i think my next will be the chorus 11..I grew up listening with a pair of 15 inch altecs..and now it seems something is missing without a 15 woofer I got snell c/v paired up with polk ls 70 and a lot of people who come over here thinks thats is my best combination.I like them but i gravitate towards the forte 11 and chorus 1

Just saw the Ethopian woman runner smash a long-standing WR in the 10,000m. That was cool! They run roughly 70 second laps, and they do 25 of them. I doubt I could do one 70 second lap, and I am in very good shape.

They will be ready to go by Sunday, "JW". See ya soon Buddy

Hmmm? - that is weird... What happened? a reload of the grill detail photo, Rick Matt ♪ ♫ ♪

I'd definitely try the new receiver. If there are still issues, perhaps there is an issue with the speaker such as out of phase woofers or crossover issue. That's a fantastic center channel and shouldn't sound thin. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Perhaps an admin can go in and delete the posts that were causing problems and unhide the thread. Any administrators up for that?

Would a generator even work in this case? Where exactly do they connect into the house? Thanks for the plug anyway...

Ive been there before. Bummer dude. Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk So if anyone needs more hot sauce let me know. I think I might need the money...

Yes. It means the earth will not be destroyed by a flood ever again.

Phoenix is lovely this time of year.........and so are these! http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/ele/5717505063.html

Here is to hoping weather is good for upcoming festival in Hope... Love my watermelon! Maybe there will be some music under that tent...

I have the klf10, klf20, and the klf30, I love my klf20's, but they can't compare to my klf30's. I'm just having fun picking up these older speakers. They have sine really good sound

Man these cars are way cool. 1600 ponies! I would wear a helmet tho for sure.

Windy too

That's my son Auston second from the left. These kids and parents got to hang out with Coach Saban the other day. School football season starts Saturday. 12 and 13 year old jr high squad shown. Mine is #55.

A pair of Klipsch kg5.2's

Belle is the best looking speaker ever. GLWS

Banner week for me. Monday scored three Heresy HIP units for $120, 7-ply cabinets in rather rough shape and large security eyelets which served as anti-theft in a small college library. Ended Friday with a pair of Cornwalls in oiled walnut finish with blown woofers for $250. Dropped the latter off to a local Klipsch tech to be re-coned, after that they'll need some elbow grease to restore the finish on the cabinets. That said, I expect to have a killer 5.1 setup for about one-third the going used prices. Score!!!

Welcome to the Forum! I dont think Klipsch can supply you with a direct replacement woofer from the factory for the KP-201. I would try posting a WTB (Want to buy) post in the garage sale and see if anyone has a spare they can offload, the industrial heritage speakers are relatively popular here so you might have good luck. The Synergy B3 may be difficult to find a replacement but you might get lucky on ebay but the cost may not be worth it considering the market value of those. Honestly, you are probably better off getting a new set of Klipsch bookshelf speakers.

Well I couldn't resist got these on Ebay for the fraction of what they normally cost this makes 4 DBH218's 2 passive 2 powered.

I'm fully enjoying it. The sub really rounded everything out. It's the best I've heard yet for movies at home. I didn't expect the 60" TV to look small though! I think these may be the largest I can fit in this area, so these will be around for a long time. Before I sold my Cornscalas, I had them in the room for auditions. It was a little funny since they blocked half of my door to my garage. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Day 2 here the forum and the new guy bought a pair of P38 in natural.

More than satisfied
