  1. Growing up my mother would refuse to leave the driveway until all of us kids had our seatbelts on, it was do annoying at the time but it instilled in me the habit of always buckling up. I'm so grateful for that, I do the same thing now with my daughter. If you have kids I hope you do the same, seeing my dead friends parents at the funeral yesterday was heart wrecking. No parent should ever have to bury their child, especially when it's something that was preventable. If you have kids always make them buckle up, even if you're in a rush it only takes two seconds and nothing is worth not being slightly late because you were in such a hurry that you had to put your loved ones at risk. Learning to bicycle in the crazy Houston streets I've learned that you are only as safe as the very worst driver you're sharing the road with. Be safe this holiday season y'all! đź’“ -Veaux

  4. We had a bare branch stuck in a stand one year... put a few decorations on it. The kids liked it and it wasn't messy with pine needles everywhere.

  12. Agreed for this week but Bama and Bulldogs will meet in the SEC championship game. If Alabama wins GA is out. If GA wins they are in and Bama drops to 2nd or 3rd. +++ And I do see where the 2nd best offense Ohio State can leapfrog those teams into 4th if certain things happen like GA losing the SEC game and Oklahoma loses the Big 12 championship game vs Texas. OK has the #1 offense in the country but man does their defense stink! If I were the committee I would be hard pressed to make the #4 seed an OK team that just gave up 56 points, even though they did win.

  13. the days start getting longer in 4 weeks... been a bad year with SAD and me the Scalas are ripening. Got a couple weeks to worry about Xmas lights and all that. We get a real "tree" this year. Being cheap/frugal, I cannot see spending $30 for a 30 minute piece of firewood. I clip branches off our arborvitae tree and tie them together as a bouquet tree, using an old wheel as a base.

  17. Hunting fishing it's all the same in the end, with any luck or the right bait. Same lure I used, good thing it was catch and release for me with bait like that.

  18. Appreciate the perspective. For me, the difficult part is deciding upfront which sources are predominantly accurate and worthy of my focus. Where I see the intellectual "laziness" in today's media consumers is in the selection of news sources predominantly because that source reinforces personal biases. Seems that lots of folks are so insecure in their beliefs that simply asking them to explain their position using facts and stats is perceived as an attack. Too much information taken at face value without healthy doses of skepticism and research make it all too easy for the propagandists to shape opinion to their ends. The reliance on facebook and twitter as primary news sources makes the whole thing all too easy. You won't find me using either one. Just my opinion..... Edit for clarity: I am not picking on one party or the other, left or right. My comments apply to all of the above. Just my opinion.

  20. Yes that is the plan SWL So far I have: Re sealed the boxes and "stoled" your method of bracing Build my own new xovers from scratch (also did the same for the c7) Installed the a55g's Next will be installing the Ciare's And finally take the BC Ti twitters from a pair of forte II's to round things out. Still using the factory foam in the factory locations.

  23. I'd suggest keeping what you have and seeing what you think first. Headroom is a good thing. Second vote there. Don't sell that combo without testing it for quite some time. I personally feel that is an excellent pairing. That parasound amp runs class A for the first 8 watts or so. That DAC is a benchmark that others are compared to. You have trim knobs on the back of the amp if all the way up produces too much level top early on the DACs volume. If I remember right, I think that DAC even had variable output from jumpers on the main board. I think you will love that combo.

  24. a thought... o O (… I always wonder why one out of two aerosol paint shopper's feel compelled to test the can out on the display, in the store …) but aerosol snow user's should expect that the end result will be pretty similar to what we perceive as white.... but nope !!!! hmmm... could it be the coffee

  26. You guys are funny. When college football decides to have a champion based on win / loss in a division and that team plays a predetermined result of another division ......i MIGHT watch it. Currently it is Klipsch’s button logo.

  31. Just like you can drive 15 MPH in a school zone while driving a Ferrari, the commercial speakers will also play at low levels. Just because a Ferrari can go 200+ mph doesn't mean it has to. Just because their cinema speakers can go exceedingly loud, doesn't mean they have to. Meanwhile, back at the farm... I was told on more than one occasion by Mr. Hunter that Klipsch designs ALL their speakers for high fidelity... Just some random thoughts to mull over.

  33. I’ve got two Elekit TU-H82 snap together kit amps that sound remarkable (6 watts). Rolling the 12AU7s is great fun! It’s a toy really, and for $300 it’ll turn your head. Or, The NuForce DDA-120 sounds fantastic with Belles + subwoofer. It can be found for $250. Your Fortes will likely be fine with any well thought out device upstream.

  34. Why not just go with the Benchmark amp...I realize it's only 100x2....but it's clean. The combination of the 2 is some thing to be reckoned with. George

  37. The very bottom is always here. I can tell when my sub on on or off. It is crossed at 60 Hz. Use 18 dB/octave high pass and 6 dB/octave on the low pass. This allows more pass through to boost the output of the La Scala in the 60 - 120 Hz region. Played with frequency and slopes. Many settings worked fine. Speakers can suffer from bass doubling. The second harmonic is higher output than the fundamentals at the very bottom.This is how really small speakers sometimes sound fuller range. I am sold on using a sealed sub. After about 10 years there is no going back.

  38. OSU can leap frog Ok. They have given up fewer points per game and look like a national championship contender. It they do the same next week, it will come down to the wire with the committee. When Cordell Jones lead the Bucks to their last national title, many people thought they were not ready and clear underdogs.

  43. The Craigslist Ad I posted has the SF2 for $100. His Academy is listed at $150 but has been listed for over a month. If it is still available, the seller might be willing to take less.
