An amazing release And this Prog album needs no introduction Having a listen to a 1976 Japanese pressing tonight Artist - Yes Title - Close To The Edge Album ID - https://www.discogs.com/release/2054249-Yes-Close-To-The-Edge-危機

There are so many situations and periods of life this can be applied to. Not just your next love affair. I apply it a new group of friends I made after I graduating from an elementary school that was very tyrannical (think Roger Waters and The Wall).

So sorry to hear that Bill. So many times people make bad choices in life, which hurt family and friends down the road. Hope your wife is holding up well and now that things have been resolved it gets better for you all. Always hard to to lose family no matter what the conditions. My condolences to you and the family.

I use Heresy I's in a 28x18 room with a small sub and they fill it up pretty nice. I use Khorns in a 30x18 room and they are obviously more capable...but I still love what the Heresies do for what they are. 90% of the time, they are enough.

She will like Canberra as it’s a fully designed capital city From buildings and roads to the picturesque views one would have from both - and a man made lake to finish it off Only visited once myself while on a school excursion - and still remember it

Fender now has a '60s Era Mustang bass, short scale, thT looks just like the bass I had. Friend of mine had a Jazz master guitar.

My main system is the Leben CS300 with 1972 Heresies. For me, they fill up my living room (L-shaped, both legs 10m long, 4.5m wide and 2.4m high) but I don't play my music at concert level. The cs300 is 12wpc and should be enough. I have other amps (Denon and a vintage H/K430) that are around 35wpc, and they 'open up' the Heresies even more, so that the neighbours can join in listening 😉I play vinyl most of the time too, btw. I use the iFi Zen Phono (first edition). So I think the heresies will do fine. Also, consider other aspects like size and available space. ps I live in Belgium, and here, of late, used Klipsch Heritage gear, I mean vintage, has become very rare too. Especially the Heresies.

Good afternoon, One of my crossovers blew in my Cornwall III. I've tried Google but to no success. Can anyone help point me in the direction of getting a replacement part? Thank you so much.

Probably not the crossover, rather a bad connection or failed solder joint. Swapping the midrange was a good trouble shooting technique and eliminated something expensive. BTW, crossovers are not failure prone (usually), but a bad connection can be. I bet with a voltmeter and a soldering pencil, you could have this fixed in 10 minutes and at no cost.

I wonder what kind of speaker wire they use? 😂

Here's a link to the "Science" behind the sphere, no mention anywhere, though, on what kind of speakers they used so I'm guessing something equivalent to smartphone speakers. If they used regular speakers can you imagine the size of the crossover? Hopefully some of our smarter speaker guys will be able to translate the science behind this into something I can grasp. or gasp.

20230930_161035.heic Bought this because of @oldtimer

I have. Waiting on a response. Concerned the model is discontinued and they might not have it. Do you think they will?

Hey Ronnie!! https://www.discogs.com/release/13927812-Dio-Lock-Up-The-Wolves

They’re not subs, they’re woofers. You can’t just put a different woofer in a cabinet and get an improvement in sound. Different woofers are designed for specific cabinet volumes, sealed or ported, frequency ranges, etc.

This dropped yesterday if your' interested. Mines on the way!

Looks good man, I haven’t seen anything that you don’t do well….

thanks ============ The air is moving today. Temp isn't bad. The wind .... If they are correct ... it could drop into the 40's for a few minutes next week...

Just finished watching an epic grand final game of AFL My team lost by 4 points This game will be talked about for years But I wanted to post the half time entertainment Kiss

I recently got a VPN and often on a USA address link That generates local US stuff that I don’t normally see

ESPN comes up w/some good stuff on occasion.

any wonder why I look forward to my 4:30 cocktail?

CWIII of those choices. I have a very similar sized room as you. I have Forte IV's in my room and they are the perfect size for sound. I had Heresy IV's in my room and while they sounded good. they did sound smaller than the Fortes. I like a big sound so put me in the CW III camp. For my tastes the H IV ran out of bass in the room. The bass that was there was good and punchy, but it paled in comparison to the Fortes. You'll get a much bigger fuller sound with better bass from the CWIII. Either one are a blast to listen to.

I’m confused, I thought you were the first to mention Jazz Master and I thought you were saying that Marvel’s bass might be one.

Yes, I say the C-3s if they check out for the money, a larger presentation, with the Leben, may be the right call. Let us know how it works out for you. Maybe you can demo with a turntable.

I think the Music Master bass was the budget version of the Mustang bass and had the straight single coil Strat type pickup.

@KROCK is closer He is right now building the ARK

Since I was a pretty bad bass player, it worked well for me. Traveling with Chuck& Mary, I used a Bassman head, and dual 12 bottom.

maybe not "the Link" but certainly some info.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphere_at_The_Venetian_Resort

I accidentally found this video and had a laugh because of my Greek background

yea the fast pace of the traffic crossing the bridge can put you to sleep..... especially when you're the unfortunate one stuck in the line. The BP check point just north of Laredo can be a real PITA with waits as long as 1 to 1.5 hours when the truckers revolt and take up all the lanes. One of these day's I'll cross the Atlantic and stay north of the equator. Don't know that Denmark is for me, but plan on Switz, Austria, Germany, Spain, Ireland, Scotland and a side detour to Greece. Going to stock-up with the highlands finest. Hope to retire soon, then it's bye bye. Cheers!!

Very nice , I´m shure that you´ve saved at least one third or more of the end customers price. DIY is the best alternative to save a lot of money , there´re so much nonsense cable products like rca, power cords, Speakercables, etc. available in the world market and everybody is telling you " We´ve got the best " 😂 Spent 1K $ for a set rca and your gear sound better than ever bevore. 🤣

Housing is crazy even around here. I'm seeing houses I know selling for outta site prices. I must be missing something. It's like everything doubled in price. Time to start looking at other avenues eliminating wood but it's high too. Wild.

Yea, had the entire right side of the garage sittin in the driveway yesterday. Talk about a hoot? I paced myself well spending time sittin and thunkin HOW I could get it all back in to make it easier to get out and use. Factor in my hoarding? WHY did I have a stack of about 25 empty cardboard lp boxes? Even found a new golf umbrella! I put it by my golf bag, which hasn't moved in 20 years. Crazy! 😂 Rolled out at 11 today totally drained and thought it was Thursday. 😂💪 Just take it easy with that 2nd wifey Bill. No hip thrusts when ur slow dancin. You know how those Bronx wimmen respond. @Tarheel always two-sides to every coin bud. I'm sure that poor dog got his SBD's (silent but deadly's) outta Duke! What's new your way?

I used a Burr Grinder for several years It was great Circumstances are such ATM. That instant is the only coffee I am going to get. 🙄

Won't be long and you'll be over spinning with us in Vinyl Record Spinning. You're learnin! Just a gaggle of red-headed step children. We serve no purpose. 😂

Oh I guess we are just red headed step children over here…🤔

Good evening friends! Friday evening here, got my glass of vino, and decided on Clutching At Straws, a 180gram, remastered beauty.

As good as the Forte IVs are at generating punchy bass they still can’t play below 35 hz. In my mind a properly setup sub that easily digs down below 20 hz adds that bottom octave that takes the Forte IVs to another level. I can’t imagine any main speakers that couldn’t benefit from a well integrated subwoofer. In my room the REL S812 was a great addition to my Fortes and I wouldn’t want to live without it.

W means they were made in 1981

I’m running 5.2.2 in my secondary system...

They weigh, per specs 5.5 lbs each; have no issues using keyholes, with proper anchors, on drywall, with my RP-500SA. Mine weigh, per specs, 8 lbs each.

I’m with 2, as near to the ceiling as possible, equal spacing with mains.

Only your ears can be the judge of the value.
