Thank goodness for that. When I was in China the food was not anything like the Chinese food I enjoy here. After a few days of eating bait, I eagerly descended upon a McDonalds to see how it compared to stateside. Fortunately, it was identical.

Honey, lets move. Our house that is> 👍 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9284495/139-year-old-house-rolls-new-San-Francisco-address.html

If it does not "deescalate" in 4 hours, contact your pharmacy or physician....🤣

Up for sale are my KPT456’s have used them for the last 3 years in my main two channel system. These speakers truly are amazing sounding. Both HF and LF crossovers were updated to factory specs as well as the 1132 horn/diaphragms when I bought them. These will bring someone many years of listening pleasure! Just look at the specs included - real nice frequency response! Highly sensitive at 104db lower dynamic listening levels are ideal as are concert level if desired. Those of you that have experienced these in a proper setup know what Im talking about, I really hate to see them go but I must sell due to health conditions and downsizing. Everything you need to know - Specs and pics included. Can be picked up in Maine or arrangement can be made for delivery. Priced to sell 1500 takes them.

I would move to Arkansas , they have snowplows -

OMG Pete! Taxes are political. Do you want to get this thread shut down?????!!!!!! PSA brought to you from the Clown and Joker assn. LLC

My OCD was kicking in... GLWS!

There goes the neighborhood.

Photos from the ad. I plan to use an NAD 218 amp.

check these 2 ---same idea but they fit in a circle ( hint )

I’ll be looking at them tomorrow and if the deal happens like it should, I’ll hold them until I get can them up north Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

2x15's are working well Thanks again everyone for the input. I have some atmos speakers to put in the front and rear on order. I am still finishing some of the sound panels and playing with the speaker placements.

May I suggest a pair of Sonos speakers (for background music). I use a pair in the dining room and they produce some nice sound. For serious stereo listening, I suggest some high-quality, well reviewed headphones. Headphones today are excellent and they will give you bass feel that you are looking for without disturbing the rest of the family. Two ideas to consider and a good way to save lots of coin.

Picked up some Cornwall IV’s.

Probably sick of the taxes and decided to come to Texas.

I like the horn with the 1132 driver on the 456 over the 904. With stock crossovers the 456 is musical and works well for main or side fill speakers. The 904 is hot and the 510 has to be dialed back in my experience. I have had multiples of both and the 456 would be my choice for plug and play. Really nice speakers.

I looked at both with the grills off before I bought them. The woofers are definitely different. Not sure about the squawkers. It would not surprise me if the -II had Tractrix. If I was thinking clearly, I’d have taken photos then. The seller bought both units new. He originally had two -301s, but one of the original two was damaged. When he replaced the damaged speaker, the -II was what’s available. The Woofer on the - II has a nicely printed Klipsch logo where as the - 301’s woofer cone is plain. I will probably need an audio test disc to sort out differences in sound. With normal music having stereo separation, it wasn’t clear if they did sound different.

I like how they attach to the ceiling..... must be strong magnets on the woofers??!! GLWS!! Free bump

Yes, I store all my CDs on a laptop, iTunes. I can hit random play and it's like my own radio station that will only play my recorded music. If you chose an album and hit play, it will play all my albums in order.

I remember the big switch from Maxwell (blue can) to Folgers (red container). Must have been in the 70's. There was a period when I would stop at Dunkin Donuts for a large coffee and two Old Fashion (plain cake in side with a light glaze) donuts. Then take it back to my office in the court house for a leisurely breakfast. Hey Coytee....looked up your wife's coffee machine. That's a tad pricey though I bet it does a good job.

Fortunately, I won’t need a snowblower to clear the new snow. My decades old Craftsman finally gave up the ghost; it owed me nothing. Seasonal oil changes and drain the gas were the only maintenance. Never even pulled the plug. The engine still starts and runs strong. The drive belt and clutch mechanism failed and parts are no longer available. My neighbor insisted I borrow his new EGO Power+ rechargeable electric snowblower. It worked better than the old Craftsman. It cleared his driveway and walks, as well as mine, on a single charge. The best part is that his brother works for EGO and can get me one at wholesale. The same unit, batteries and charger is on sale at Lowes for $550. Mine will be $360. It should be here in a week. I don’t know what I’m more excited about, my vaccination 1st dose scheduled on 3/10 or the arrival of the new toy.

I can relate. When I went to SanFrancisco, my ex wanted Chinese food... and thought she knew where "the" restaurant was... Instead we landed in a "home style" Chinese place.... No sweet/sour or anything remotely familiar....We ordered....it came in a rice gruel... jook. Real Chinese food. It was different --- shall we say

Those look like identical speakers to me my guess is you have a pair of original 301's with possibly a replaced terminal cup? I'd pull the grill covers and confirm whether or not they are the same speaker or not next step would be to inspect the crossovers make sure they are the same.

Not quite as nice as those signature series but... no affiliation https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/269256801377340/

Cane Grilles do it for me.

I was the personal photographer for Hugh Hefner’s wife for over 10 years. I worked with many of the top playmates. It was fun but seriously work is work and no matter how good it looks to others it got tedious and boring for me.

Shekels? And a goodly chunk of o’ching? Seriously, I think you should try harder to be more offensive. Should the buyer try to *** them down in price? JFC on a biscuit shaped like a cross [emoji38]

Listen to them a little today, not perfectly set up just set in front of my chorus II. Tomorrow I hope to dampen the horn and. check for any cabinet leaks possible change/add poly fill. Will add my lil Mike's sub's to the mix tomorrow. Think I need to start a new thread.

You know you have a problem when... My name is Sancho Panza, and I am a Klipschaholic. 😉 Congrats on the them speaks!

When I was doing pictures of beautiful women! Back in the day! lol

That's a bummer. The Allstar game is more important than a vacation. Yea. he likes it. Those are the only two positions I ever played....pitcher, or catcher.

It's Sunday afternoon, sunny and 73F here now.

I am glad to hear you are pleased with the capacitor replacement; my experience was the same as yours. I love keeping things original, but after 40 years, well you know. Cheers! Andy

It's baseball season again! That's my boy slinging it on the bump.

Hello all, My wife and are going to be finishing our basement this upcoming summer. This basement will be a den that will have a projector that will be used to watch movies, sports, etc.... That being said, I will take the speakers that I have at the moment, Monitor Audio Bronze 5, and send them downstairs to be used as part of a surround sound system. IF they had been adequate, I would have like to keep the upstairs because the fit in the décor really well. However, sonically, these speakers just cant give me what I'm looking for. I find that that are very detailed and like the sound signature, but they just can't fill the room and keep their composure. Put the volume up a little higher to to moderate levels to feel the bass and everything becomes muddied. So why not get new speakers for the living room. It measures 18.5'L x 16'W x 20'H (cathedral ceiling). The living room is open to the kitchen and the speakers will be placed to the side of the fireplace. I attached a picture so you guys could really see what I am working with. Things that brought me to the Klipsch Forte.... Great Sound (according to reviews, I have not been able to listen to them) Beauty Made in NA (I'm from Canada and as much as possible try to buy things made in Canada and USA, I hate Chinese throw away CRAP) Size factor is within wife's tolerance Low sensitivity and easy to match with I would like for the purchase of my next pair of speakers to be ''end game'' speakers that I do not have to replace until I have too much money I don't know what to do with (which will never happen anyway hahaha). So am asking people that have experience with either the forte 3 or 4 how do they believe the bass response will be in my living room area. I have heard / read some comments that distance from the walls is important for the Forte's and in my case, there will be no wall behind them. Will the bass be anemic in the setup? I am not a basshead, but I would like to ''feel'' just a little bit of bass drum when I listen to rock. ROCK ON!

Oh, little THK - you had no idea how quickly GS-11-01 was going to come for you. Still waiting on giving the Klipsch forum members tours.

would be amazing speakers, Some day I really want to get a set of these or other industrials. Good luck with your sale.

My kt150s sound great and they will not be getting replaced by $200 each x 8 kt170s yikes - and I agree I would never get return on that investment

My condolences to the Crites family on your loss. Bob sure set a high standard in all that he efforted towards. Remember the smiles.

Low voltage/high current....... that's the ticket. Don't think it would matter AC or DC.

Klipsch HERSHEY ll's HWO Refurbished Rare. Hershey Walnut Oiled-----very unique -

1 - My cabinets do have nails in them. 2 - I believe I used a 1/4 inch radius bit. 3 - Klipsch would not have done the finish as the R in HBR stands for raw. 4 - I had some small bits to fill or glue together. That corner you have that's damaged, was that from the router? If you have the piece, you can glue and clamp it and use a little filler and sanding when dry.

I browsed the entire topic and saw an array of nice tube amps, both DIY and commercial products... Consquently, I distributed so much "likes" that I have been "like-forbidden for today" by the forum platform (may be I have been considered as a "like" bot ?) I complete the thread by some of my DIY achievements - which share the same Hammond aluminium casing (1550J = 275x175x67mm) : Cheers,

Yes man, congrats and enjoy! Yes would go easy at first just because you can. What are you powering them with? Thanks...

Can you post pictures of what you have?

In a thread named Everyone is stupid, well maby. At least your not looking for a Belle or pretty Jube.

You want to know where Pat_in_ Dallas_Fort_ Worth is located? I probably shouldn't be such a smart arse. I've been through the DFW airport and it's bigger than my entire home town in West Virginia.
