Soooo... back in my younger past, I played lap steel with Marvin and Gentry. These guys are now in their 60s, and have played together since they were in high school. They did some work with Dan Peek, one of the original members of the band America (Horse with no name, Sister Golden Hair, etc). Dan passed away in 2011, and Brian and Ken have been working to re-release some of his music and things they did together and redo some of the music.

Thanx for that ..it´s a KAOS only

Nice and easy @Marvel suits me fine today because that sinus headache I had is almost gone!

Hi fine folks! Happy to share tracking info for those getting anxious but confirming I'm monitoring and seeing a lot of books landing between Dec 4 and 5th, regardless of proximity to Alabama Domestic orders of single books are USPS Media Mail, FedEx for 2 or more books. International orders are mostly FedEx 2 days with the exception of Asia + Oceania. Trust me, we strategized on these ship rates enough to become the confused math lady meme but we got there in the end! To those who didn't get a chance to order via Kickstarter, please email @Travis In Austin as the Museum has some copies to allocate. If you are feeling nervous about delivery, please reach out to hi@loveinjection.nyc and we'll get you sorted with a tracking link. Love the beautiful photos of your setup at home with the book. Keep em coming! Thank you for appreciating the book, we are elated that you're finding it beautiful. It was our intention that it be a representation of the craftsmanship and quality of the speakers we love so much. Best, B+P

Been there before... more than once, even.

Yea, I'm all that and more 24/7 365.

I was working at a factory on a little hill. There was about 4 inches of snow on the ground when they called it a day. Oh ... did I mention there was a stop sign at the bottom of the hill?

Really, it could have been a little hotter in the mix.

That looks like - Organised Kaos or Chaos ?. Or is it Could be a combination of both Info below Define Chaos Chaos is a state of complete disorder and confusion. It is characterized by a lack of organization, structure, and control. Chaos can be found in various aspects of life, from the natural world to human behavior. In nature, chaos can be observed in the unpredictability of weather patterns, the randomness of natural disasters, and the complexity of ecosystems. In human behavior, chaos can manifest in the form of riots, protests, and other forms of social unrest. Define Kaos Kaos, on the other hand, is a concept that originated in ancient Greek philosophy. It refers to a state of disorder that is not entirely negative. In fact, kaos is often associated with creativity, innovation, and change. Unlike chaos, kaos is not characterized by a lack of structure or control. Rather, it is a state of flux, where old structures are broken down and new ones are formed. In this sense, kaos can be seen as a necessary precursor to growth and progress. Here is a table summarizing the differences between chaos and kaos: Chaos Kaos Complete disorder and confusion State of flux Lack of organization, structure, and control Not entirely negative Associated with social unrest Associated with creativity, innovation, and change

Tell y'all what... When it's 19 and you're out in it the whole time it isn't fun. But it made it to the low forties this afternoon. Got sick but I'll live, will have that home next Tues morning!

Mine arrived today!

Blah. I'm running PLuna on my LS and they kick butt allllll day long. Back off the gas, give those new LS time to marinate, stop listening and comparing the CW's and CHILL with that new system you put together. Don't even try to piss off the neighbors now cause they won't get it. Stash some cash for the new PWK subs and quit trying to hear things you never heard before. Be gentle! Just let them breathe a bit and break in. They'll blossom in time and you'll hear it all happen. THEN get off the wine and hit the bourbon, step on the gas a bit and watch what happens. Sure you're gonna need some bass but sit back and chill cause that's down the road and another treat for you to look forward to. THEN you and everyone else will appreciate what you have. Slow and easy brother. I love my Prima Luna and threw a set of Gold Lions in it fwiw. I'm nevah goin back to SS. Try counting backwards from 10 for a lil change of pace. It's a challenge for me but I think you'll make it.

BOOM! A box on the porch this morning! All nice and quiet here in the hood so I must have gotten the official okie dokie from all the law enforcement agencies! lol Nice package is all I can say after a lil walk thru. Glad to see the "Dope from Hope" definition early so perhaps these won't get purged as readily as the old style ones did. Since I got an extra copy of this one too for "good ole Duckburg High" I'll be dropping one off tomorrow to the librarian. Hopefully she found some things from long ago she had laying somewhere. Either way, if ONE kid learns something from them both I'll be happy. This piece complements the initial book so wonderfully well. Hats off to EVERYone who made it happen.

If someone is tuned in to a specific characteristic of a loudspeaker: imaging, soundstage width/depth, a specific timbre or coloration that they tend to like, whatever, they'll gravitate to a speaker that gives them what they want. I think we horn-heads gravitate to the dynamics of speakers like Klipsch. Folks who don't crave dynamics will look to other speaker types or brands, and would probably describe the sonic delivery of a horn speaker as being too "in-your-face". This doesn't mean other speakers are bad, or that Klipsch speakers are lacking. Rather, we all just like what we like.

Sometimes I take my Klipsch speakers for granted. A good example is when I go on vacation or away from home for an extended period of time. I get used to watching TV, listening to music, etc on whatever TV is available. Then when I return home I appreciate what I have even more.

Wont be long before you move into your new House or man cave We will give a hall pass to get your shite together so you can enjoy your audio system again

Yep

Yep, kaos is how I've been working since July! Wasn't aware of it until now, good info @Full Range I'll be at a different level of it next week that's for sure!! Early Christmas and who knows what else for me this year!

Hahaha love this thread and all the enthusiasm! Yes I'm just going to give it a lot more time. Lots of amazing useful tips and thoughts here. I think the clean bass is actually what threw me off before - as someone said, I maybe got used to the muddy bass from a direct radiating speaker like the Cornwall. I think the real insights will come when I get a new amp so I can power both my cornwalls and my la scalas which are in different rooms! I will most definitely report back once I do that. Thank you again everyone for being amazingly helpful!

I told to them cancel your order coyote-o……

Too many to list individually but many thanks for clearing this up for me and putting me on the right path, greatly appreciated. As much as I love the look of the sixes I think I'll be keeping the amp and sending these back and spending the return on something else without the bells and whistles which I don't require. Thanks again!

He'd been doing it for over 30 years at that point so guess there's good nights and bad nights for him!

That was a terrible recording of his voice. Awful. JJK

Bob Dylan on Letterman in '92. Amazing list of musicians for the night...

As it was a cold and snowy day outside I deceided to continue to record some cd´s on my Teac V 6030 S Tapedeck. It´s my third mixed tape w/intwo weeks . The first was a CD Blues Compilation, the second a analogue Vinyl Rock Tape and the third was a CD Soul / Funk / Jazzfunk Mix . To give you an idea how it looks when I´m a busy DJ 😂

Arrived this morning USPS in Illinois. The quality and execution are superb.

Just got mine, here in Georgia.

I hope my Dope From Hope book comes with a gorgeous La Scala like yours did. That's even cooler than the BS button

Ok, makes sense. I point the finger at break in time.

“The Eagle has landed” - Thank you —Amped - Braniff airlines? Damn son, either helll of a memory or you’re “well aged” -

My digital spin today were and

The snow is gone , so pity , now it´s cold, wet and misty again, 34 F , no real daylight , no sunny period ...all we see is grey , not so nice . But I´m in a good mood , had a meeting with my lawyer yesterday , things will get difficult but we´re working on a mutual based solution for both parties. This is important in the interest of my children, they should have as little damage as possible under the divorce.

Yeah, there is always a temp rise after pulling from the heat. And it's important to give it rest to let the moisture stay in.

Got leftover stuffing? Heat up on your stove top with plenty of water. Stir frequently and keep adding water until in turns into a coarser version of oatmeal. I call it "mush" to my mind it definitely tastes better than regular stuffing. A yummy leftover.

Things like that are going to depend on your seating position, room, etc. For the best imaging, generally having the speakers aimed directly at your head on both a vertical and horizontal plane is best. So, that could involve both tilting the speakers back or forward depending on the height of your speaker, height of what you're sitting on is and your physical height. I've experimented a lot with my speakers over the years and found the results to be like yours. I have my L/R Heresys on stands that are a little over 30" tall I believe and that puts the drivers pretty much centered with my ears while I'm seated. I have them aggressively toed in and have an equilateral triangle between me and each speaker. With them set up that way, the soundstage is absolutely huge, with sounds extending far beyond the outer edges of the speakers.

Count to ten.....

How are the CWs positioned, close to the wall, in a corner? The sound changes noticeably moving them, closer = more bass. Mine need to be moved a few inches out or closer depending on the amp I'm using.

You could buy a subwoofer with speaker level inputs and outputs. These subwoofers usually have speaker level inputs and outputs so you would connect the LaScalas to the subwoofer's speaker level outputs. You could also run TWO SETS of speaker wires from your amp; one pair to your LaScalas and the other pair to your subwoofer. See below for why this is possible. Or, if the subwoofer of choice has only speaker level inputs as some do, you could connect them to the B pair of speaker outputs on your amp. These inputs should be high impedance so they won't strain your amp, but with this connection method it will dictate your choice of amp as you'll need one with two sets of speaker outputs.

Australia mate. I figure you ask because of the price, if so, would you believe I actually had a $300 voucher which knocked them down to the above price.

I was in Abilene Texas one time It snowed 3" or so ...Common thought was that if you locked up the wheels, they would dig down to Pavement. 😀😀😀😀😀😀 Being a NYer . I was doing donuts 🙂

Big breath….again….Mr K never understood the difference between home speakers and commercial. He told me that it should not matter what you have hooked up to the speaker….a turntable or a band….the speaker should faithfully reproduce the input signal.

Why would you have bad ones? 😁

How about a quad of EL84s via a 300B per channel?

They are 60 pounds weight each...

Ahunting I shall go. I saw a pair of the black pro variety in Dallas going for a reasonable price. I wonder if they will still be around when I have the cheddar. Hmmm... maybe I will see if I can sell the dirtbike.

Picking the speakers up tonight. (I'm so stoked.) He also has a B&K AVR 305 that he is willing to let go on the cheap. So I might pick that up as well. My room is 11'x20'x8', I will have to rearrange the room, but I am so so so so excited to do so to make it all work. The speakers are going to be in the corners of the short wall on the far side. I guess I won't be removing that popcorn ceiling after all, lol.

Thanks for all of the input. It is greatly appreciated.

Does make you wonder what happened to the other one...
