Post 9000...

Tampa......... Ovi's got me down dam*it side one is cheery to me!

Oh NO! @billybob. I grew up walking barefoot in the summer, Myrtle Beach once a year, Outer Banks before the houses, Blue Ridge before that spacey floating highway! USS N.C. the day it docked in Wilmington, before they cleaned out all the wiring! When it was safe to drive around town without a degree of ESP. Saw the Marshall Tucker Band bus going east on Archdale Dr. almost every Sunday morning walking to church. Known some excellent northern folk from Long Island, Buffalo and Mass. Worked with one nut of a painter from NJ until he scared the crap out of me in a 50' lift for the second time. I fired him when I touched the ground, got on my V-65 and left Disney before lunch that day.

Hey y’all made it up to Mom’s place just northeast of Dallas. Little Sister stopped by and then about 11:00 PM her hubby strolled in, up to 0330. Lunch with Mom and big sister today. Hot spot off the cell. Will be slow lane here as well and off to Hope on Wed.

Saw MT at a bluegrass here and others. I can stand some CDaniels about anytime. going to go barefootin" lol myself. Been through MBeach a few years back. Man, you all keep it between the lines...Going roadie my self. 2 bros worked a MMouse in Orlando. This was late 6-70's. One bro drove a Kawa 500 4 banger. Neck got to hurtin"...Doc saw his helmet...figured it out...if I ever get up there, I will bend an elbow, if you still do.🍸☕🍷😺

Cheaper yes but not as fun...

And people from Boston say I talk slow

Italians and Greeks talk with their hands

Darn Bro, when I'm not watching ANY of the NHL teams I pull for getting dominated, I'm not too busy. #8 is having a good to the last drop year! So many years later! Deep in those cart msgs think there are phone #s. I lived with a MA Italian & family for a decade...I can handle your dialect. We only use one syllable for the 0W30 weight I put in the teeny tiny motor though!

Not really...have no one to talk too.. Only Gia...

Mama V let `em Play It says so in the liner!

Now once again from Clapton to Bob Seger to:

you must be a saint to put up with us .. let alone "the old man". Have a great day. You deserve it

Agreed, total you are looking at around $500 for dinged up cabs that you cant look at first. It may still be a good deal for someone willing to roll the dice...

Those look really nice! If that is the case I would go with the Heresy's. The high efficiency and midrange are very 'forward' and will be able to overcome the ringing. The KG's on the other hand are more laid back in the mid range but pound bass. Since you already have the CF-3, I would go with the Heresy also as it will round out your collection better with a 2 way and 3 way design where the KG 5.5 will sound more similar to your CF-3.

I will definitely take your advice on this. Unfortunately, the guy with the Heresy's has yet to reply to me. If he does, and they have a pulse, they shall be mine. Even if on life support. Thanks, I've been having fun with my new hobby! I've been accused of that several times in my life, Emile! Occasionally it's even been true... I suffer from some really bad tinnitus, from a motorcycle tire blowing apart while I was filling it. It happened right next to my head. Sound pressure and healthy vocal ranges trump everything now, and brute force is needed to override the ugly chords that live in my head constantly. My days of aural discernment have been over for 25 years. Here are the new babies! (Not too bad for a C-note)

Then there's this...

Nice enough speakers at that price....I don't need them at all but the fact you are local and I am an audio hoarder made me think about it.....lol! Tim

Hey the LaScala is a pa speaker so.....

Don't be telling me your from...New Jersey...

On a side note, forums are a fantastic way for folks of common interest to communicate and share information. However, Cary Audio as a company does not monitor forums because we feel they are the consumers domain. So, if anyone does need sales, customer service, or technical assistance and posts it here, we many not see it in a timely fashion or perhaps at all. Therefore, don't hesitate to contact us directly.

If you're referring to the CVT, a combination of both.

Friday and Saturday are the two big days. Hoping the weather will be cooperative this year....

Pretty much, yes.

I think I read in the Pilgrimage info that everyone pulls out early on Sunday so Saturday would be the day to be there.

Don't rule out a cameo from me at the pilgrimage. If I can sweet talk the wife out of the new car for a few days... If I have one day there ... Sat or Sun - which is better? @Opus and @Ceptorman when are you guys headed out? Last night, my sister in law came over. Someone gave her some table glasses, so the she and wife were looking at them. SIL sez, "Here's one that has a marijuana leaf on it" Wife looks at it, "Yeah, that IS a MARIJUANA LEAF" Let ME look at it ... "Ummmmmm, girls, that is a sand dollar etched on this glass" and they think I'm a Devo

OK we packed up the car tonight except for a couple things and it's FULL. Went to go round up a few more things to bring out in the AM so we can leave, went back to the car a few minutes later to check something and it locked itself, of course with the keys in it. That's when you get that dumbass feeling, no extra key, will fix that stupid move tomorrow. Try the old coat hanger trick, no luck getting it in on the side of the window, something blocking it ? So we start calling lock people to come out and of course you leave a message no one answers. So I try a longshot, trying to get the coat hanger now with a point on the end to snag the flat little button you pull up to unlock, after 5 minutes of this it worked. I was kind of shocked and happy I probably saved $100, this made me happy. The car use to have Onstar so she called to reactivate it, you have to be in the car to press the button to activate, so that was no good. I highly doubt it but am hoping it's the last stupid thing I do all week, if nothing else there will be plenty witnesses when I screw up next.

Like I know about snowmobiles, never touched one in my life. These are for go karts and I would guess MUCH cheaper than anything on a snowmobile. http://www.reliablegokarts.com/transmission.htm Or Amazon https://www.amazon.com/VEVOR-Torque-Converter-Small-Engine/dp/B01LNH23IK/ref=sr_1_15?ie=UTF8&qid=1526274718&sr=8-15&keywords=go+cart+transmission

You mean snow mobile... Centrifugal clutch... I also use the rekluse on my husqvarna Te 450

Similar design to a go cart transmission, 2 pulleys one gets wider or smaller, being angled this changes the diameter which changes the speed. It sounds like anyway.

The 24R is in transit to my place. I currently have 24L and 34L. I'm considering buying the 34/70 pair as well. The kids birthdays are coming up and it crossed my mind that would be the perfect gift.

Interesting. I think the Vette uses a German Getrag tranny. The trans is behind the axel.

That's a lot of posts & youtubes Mike! Do you talk that much after a quart of coffee?

I probably built them.

I hope that's an automatic... The semi I learned on, only had a 10speed.... but, it only had 1700 rpm from idle to red line.

That explains what the wife said the salesman told her ... You can set the shifter so that distinct shifts are perceived. He called it "manual" shift...

Interesting. My niece bought a new Mustang GT, it has a 10 speed tranny!

Now it is this for me, a doubletake:

Quiet on here today. Maybe celebrating with mom or headed to Hope? A hot one here. Washed the Z4. Mopped all the hardwoods in prep for friends from California visiting, changing the linen, cleaning the kitchen a bit. LF entertaining her mom in law. \ Life in the slow lane......

The wind picked up yesterday on 5/11. From my seat at the table, thought I would capture it and create a video. I hope you enjoy these 2 minutes in time.

Hello again! Well, I finally have some Wi-Fi and a computer with a real keyboard for the moment. So, I better take advantage. To address some of the specific questions in some of the posts, the preamp being built is an SLP-98, which is our “mid-level” preamplifier. As for the mono block, that is the formidable CAD-211FE! Klipsch and Cary Audio have a long history of synergy. For the purpose of this topic I’m going to take for granted we’re mostly taking about the Heritage Series and or Jubilee’s. As a company, we manufacture various tube and solid state products. To break it down for simplification purposes, we essentially produce two styles of tube circuits, SET and Ultralinear. Each have different various styles, i.e. integrated amplifier or power amplifier, and sizes/price points. From our perspective (keeping in mind we also produce terrific solid state amplifiers) Klipsch and Cary tubes is a combination hard to beat on many levels. At minimum, we’d recommend using tube power on the mids and highs. Tubes can also sound wonderful on bass bins or the “woofers”. As for which style of tube circuit, well that’s a bit more complex. Let’s first address power at to take that part out of the equation. With the efficiency of the Heritage Series and Jubilee, any of our tube based products will have the power to drive them. What one most consider is the size of their space, the volume level they desire and the type of source material they will use, and is it a 2-channel or HT system. The SET designs are single ended triode (Class A). This is a very different circuit then utralinear but when it comes to 2-channel, lighter genres without the need for earthshaking bass in favor of wonderfully textured bass, the SET cannot be beat. It is magical on a scale its own. One could combine SET on the mids/highs and use solid state on the bass if they require harder hitting bass for HT or other more modern musical genres. SET and or biamping is certainly a bit more expensive. The ultralinear amplifiers and integrated amps are Class AB with some designs having a triode mode, which is all Class A but cuts the power output in half (Triode is not SET). All AB amp even in ultralinear mode will run in Class A for a small portion then switch over to make the Class AB. Our ultralinear designs overall are a bit more economical with greater output power while exploiting all the advantages of tubes. The exception is our CAD-211FE mono block. They are our most expensive amplifier and offer fantastic top to bottom sound with very high power with any source material. They are in use in many recoding and master studios around the world. In a nutshell, ultrlinear is more affordable, higher power, more “linear” sounding and are great with all musical genres. SET are more niche for incredible musicality with a greater mid-range richness and typically for lower listening levels on lighter genres of music. Of course one could biamp using SET on mids/highs and use utralinear or solid state on the bass for the “best of everything” scenario. I hope this helps. Many customer and companies around the world have discovered the magic of Cary Audio with Klipsch Heritage. If I can answer any additional questions, please let me know -Daryl Berk Cary Audio

My 1977 (bought new after college) KCBR Klipschorns were made of Baltic Birch. I had NEVER seen 9 layer, 1/2 inch plywood before. They were impressive, and sounded great, of course. My new (to me) Klipshorn Jubillee Clones, built by HPower, designed by Roy Delgado and Paul Klipsch, are Baltic Birch with veneer and weigh a ton! They also sound fantastic!!

Correct, they have the pairs. The warehouse f'ed up the shipment. They were 🌽fused, until I gave them a dose of vitamin P.

might have a little less distortion in the bass department but my guess i they wont be an improvement on anything else against a 904.

Bet you it will be better Should have my 12" later this week and will let you know. Cheers, Emile

--- been checking Hope weather for a possible trip down on the bike. Friday showed 95 and possible t-storms. It's not the rain but the mud pit aftermath that concerns me. A half-mile of slick bumpy mud and a 700 lb.road bike do not mix near as well as a Carl shaker. Four wheels does seem the most prudent yet disappointing at this point.

--- sorry but me being a sarcastic a-whole - I've seen people as Big as a KHorn returning small speakers - just sayin ---

welcome to the forum W in the serial number stands for 1981

They look great. If it were my project, I’d forget grilles. They’re a lot of work, and , IMO, they work against the pro look you’ve so successfully captured. If they were veneered furniture, I’d say yes, but not these working class beauties. But they aren’t mine, it’s your decision, and either way will be good.
