Hello ! after almost two years of happiness, some news from my Cornwall III. I really liked Amy's project : https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/150513-custom-plaques-for-heritage-speakers/ But as I am far from the US I have made here in France, by a craftsman my plates of Heritage. I think Klipsch will not mind if I did not go through them for manufacturing because it was complicated because of the distance and because Amy does not work at home anymore, so I did not have the new one contact. Then, for the position on the cabinet, I hesitated a long time and then I chose this place discreet because invisible, when the fabric cover is in place and high enough so that one can read the text without lying down On the ground. Do you like that? I will try to put a sharper picture later!

Today I found hiding in amonst the classical part of the collection From 1974 a great rocky prog album Artist - Procol Harum Title - Exotic Birds and Fruit 

He is taking a break, hope he comes back one day, he is missed.

Just put this on hold ...

Just remember I did try again.... Another failed attempt ! As kid yes I did enjoy zep.... But they do nothing for me know... king crimson on the other hand still blows me away !

Never was that big of a gearhead, never thought of tasting it, although it might be better than Miracle whip, wouldn't take much.

--- Yikes! That ain't even Mayo ?! and with you being a good southerner isn't a bottle of Dukes more appropriate ?!?

I'm not good with Spanish, is this it ?

I think there's still hope for you. Break out "Houses of the Holy" and try "the Rain Song" "Dyer Maker" & "No Quarter" No expectations, calm peaceful thoughts, then do like that fellow in all those first time listening to posts from last night! I'll try and enable you

Had to dip into the “In case of emergency break glass” stash. The boutique 1850 Black Gold by Folgers is OK. Seems more marketing than product. FYI, the soup can vase is a decoration from the wife’s book club, where the protagonist in the subject book put flowers in soup cans. Last night we went to Stars On Ice at the new Little Caesars Arena. The tickets were complimentary from our son who works at LCA. Watching figure skating is not my favorite Saturday night pastime, but the wife enjoyed it, and seeing the new LCA, with a tour guided by our son, who could take us anywhere, was fun. Seeing the behind the scenes Detroit Redwings facilities was a treat, and, actually the skating was entertaining. Watching top level athletes, even in sports you don’t follow, can be entertaining. Could use some barrel jumping, though to maintain interest. On a note pertinent to this forum, the sound was abysmal. Way too much boomy bass, coupled with an inability to understand the dialogue. The music accompaniments were poor also. I wonder what the sound quality is like for the concerts. Perhaps I’ll find out next month, as the wife wants to go to Hall & Oates. I guess that would be better than figure skating . . . even without barrel jumping.

I wonder if he will do King Crimson

I enjoy a lot of different music. Coming from a jazz background, including country is a quantum leap... and do enjoy some country. My dad didn't consider country [as] music. I think his opinion tempered a little, but he wouldn't pay to attend a country music show. I am having visions of him doing a "Bob's Country Bunker" HaHaHa

I should take some shots before the sun goes down. Most of the time it is too bright to take decent pics. The mesquites are all fresh green. They will turn almost blue before it rains again ... in late June.. there are some neat flowers going off right now. I'll need to wait for "the golden hour" to take pics. trying to track down where the hummer are building. I see them gathering nesting material... Cat hair, spiderwebs, fiberglass insulation. in the mean, you have to suffer another sunset

BTW-Fantastic Album.

I rarely hear them here in NYC/Philly. But do catch them from time to time.

Led zep is more accessible.... For the average listener.. And radio friendly.... With musical style based on r&b... It's not that you hear crimson on the radio.. Don't know of a radio station... At the time that would Play any crimson... Unless it was late night... But with my local station their known to play ... Supers ready in its entirety... A few times a year...

Remember that king crimson is not easy listening.. And it's not that they are heavy , but at any moment They can enter the stratosphere...sonically.. My favorite line up is with wetton , bruford , years

1for ZEP!

Alright Dirt, I have been a huge Zeppelin fan my entire life and have not listened to King Crimson since I was in high school. I am going to load up some KC and give it a go. I will be as unbiased as possible 🤨. King Crimson VS Led Zeppelin!!!!! Put on your helmet....

Mac gear new or used.. Is a little to much for me.. But if you check that site out.... He does restore Vintage Mac gear.. I think jimbo bought a pair of Mc 30's from him.. A couple of years back... And highly recommends him.... http://www.vintagevacuumaudio.com/product-category/amps-for-sale/

There is a lcl shop in Fords,NJ. Haven't been there since I live in Bklyn.. $300.00 was enough for today! I'll go back though, they have a few more originals there, I'd like to pick up.

Getting there, Breaking in the Ortofon super 40, Just picked up 10 albums today, enough of streaming. lol Scored on the Brubeck & a Coltrane original presses.

When the well dries up they will be willing to shake.

Maby one of these, or the second picture the redneck version.

Correct. Supply and demand principal.

I've often wondered what folks do with the info after learning of the manufacturer date...

I'm surprised at you.

Spinning this dreaded album.... Still can't find a emotional connection

Love it! Nice to see there are American products that are so well liked by our friends in France. Enjoy them in good health!

Well if your going to put that disclosure in, I do not claim any picture I have ever put here would be considered a great photo, just ones I like. Yes they were and Bruce's pictures also.

Two great write-ups and explanations directly upstream ^^^ @Islander and @garyrc! Have your secretaries type that up and I will sign it.

Having one sub on each of two different walls (and not centered) sometimes helps. Some people hide their subs in various creative ways. Not seeing the sub may help avoid thinking some sound is localized in the sub. But, sound quality should take precedence. The range below 35Hz is mainly for incredible movie low frequency effects. Very little music lives there, except pipe organ. Sure, a regular piano goes down to 27.5 Hz (the Bösendorfer even lower), but these notes are rarely sounded, except when a pianist is fooling around with something like The Engulfed Cathedral. So, for a sub to sound "musical" perhaps it should be especially good between 35 Hz and about 80 Hz. Most subs should not be crossed-over above 80 Hz, because the clarity below 80 may suffer due, in part, to poorly controlled recordings, and, conceivably, increased modulation distortion, and the sub may announce its exact location if frequencies above 80 are not rolled off. A house shaking can be quite dramatic! Bear in mind that you, and part of your house, may be in a bass heavy zone for a given frequency, and Audyssey may attenuate that bass bump. Remember, you can turn the overall bass back up -- post Audyssey -- by turning up the knob on your subwoofer. It is often cautioned that one shouldn't turn the trim for the sub that is on the AVR or the AVP up higher than -3 dB because that sub output on some AVRs can distort at higher levels. For more bass beyond that, use the knob on the sub itself. In our former house, certain bass notes would rattle the windows several rooms away. In our newer house, Audyssey fixes that, and we can turn the overall bass up without rattling anything, anywhere, but moving the floor easily.

He's correct about Pink Floyd being so unfairly good! "If I had a record to put out I wouldn't bother if Floyd was putting one out that year!" Those two were enough, Feel like "Dance Your Life Away"

You should see my reactions when I listen to Genesis - Nursery Cryme

Don't know where you are... but I bet it's about the same distance. Bloody 1200 miles from here. Only 2 state between me and there.... NM and TEXAS. The long way Texas. ElPaso to Texarkana Before you Texans get all proud, I have been to Alaska and heard the jokes...

Hey if BigStewMan makes it I will too!

Chuck just ask me to post this

If you look even closer, there's a Cornwall just to the left of the bed.

Listening to some boot shufflin' guitar boogie from down south tonight!
