Very impressive collection! I only have a handful of Miles Davis albums. I didn’t see these two on your list.

well ..this is indeed a veryveryveryveryveryvery BIG Miles Collection , I´m impressed @mustang_flht , but I´m missing or haven´t I seen this one in your long list ?

The replacement album for Richard Wright - Wet Dreams has arrived And this pressing has no faults so that makes me a happy camper

Just ONE? Are you feeling ok? Welcome aboard Jonah! We're just a gaggle of spinners in here. Keep posting and you'll open up new features in your account to make it simpler to use. You're just a newbie but you'll get the hang of it hopefully sooner than later. Fill us in on yourself. Age, location, gear etc. Use 9 or 10 posts to do it and things will start to open up. We don't bite too hard in here.

As is usually the case, the truth tends to be somewhere in the middle. To satisfy my curiosity, I ordered a pair of Altas PD-5VH's. Below are plots of a new PD-5VH (Blue) and an old K55V push pin (Orange). Both measurements start at 300hz on a K-400 horn with no filter. I'll let you decide the frequency responses of each driver. Again, the Altas driver is brand new. I don't know if the FR will change over time. Mike

Mornin JohnJ......didn't want you to think you were talking to yourself🙂 39 degrees and clear. May warm up to mid 40's by LF's tennis session. Just wondering how long this post Covid fatigue will last. Don't have the energy to swat a fly! No music and only a couple of drinks in the past month! Guess I need to start shopping for old age homes😑

A beautiful concert by Donald Byrd at the Olympia in 1958: I like the style of this reissue: the record as originally in 58: the Brunswick labels are magnificent = see my photos, the beautiful original photos of JP Leloir, the quality of the cover, the glossy front photo, the "50s" style back, the antistatic lined quality "SAM" sleeve... Music, I'm discovering at the moment: I like https://londonjazzcollector.wordpress.com/2013/04/13/new-donald-byrd-quintet-byrd-in-paris-1958-brunswick/ https://www.discogs.com/fr/release/22148350-Donald-Byrd-Byrd-In-Paris-Volume-1 😍

Hey guys, I read your suggestions for Miles Davis albums: I'm going to look at these records online and I'll probably put some of them on my wish list: thanks https://www.milesdavis.com/music/releases/

Played my copy and side two was a lil grungy I think. I didn't eyeball just gonna run it thru the VPI before it goes down again. Glad this one works for you.

Welcome on board , nice to see a new face here 😉

This evening... Jonah

Hi, My Funny Valentine by Miles Davis, a Dutch CBS reissue from the mid-80s! https://www.discogs.com/fr/release/4698128-Miles-Davis-My-Funny-Valentine-Miles-Davis-In-Concert My Miles Davis collection is slowly growing, I'm missing three albums, "Four" & more, Big Fun and Water Babies >>> 🤩

Your budget and speaker availability will help with your decision.

Nothing better than hearing brass played over speakers mady by PWK or the new Chief! Might listen to that whole release @MicroMara ! Going to see about getting a little more speed out of my internet package. 35down - 7up just isn't snappy enough

We are not in a cold snap here, I learned about this new to me version of them a month ago! 30s to 50s this week, chance of snow was yesterday but it was in the 40s then. And I've heard it does take a while to get over that crap guys! Can you fight it like with oats in the morn along with a B vitiman supplement? I had one of those Kind 8g protein bars every morn so I could take my Rx's and supplements when I was mobile last year for five months. Thats their main ingredient. Threw a couple leftover blackberries that have been in sugar for two days in my oatmeal a couple hours ago! I believe oats are the best carb if they even are? Back to my natural-processed Colombian, only making 24 oz in the morn so it can last longer!

2009-2014 were tough times with the HDMI chip failure issue. Both my TX-NR807 and TX-NR818 went back to Onkyo. Most importantly, Onkyo repaired them no questions asked, even out of warranty. They even sent me the box, packing and UPS pick-up label.

Pfffffffftttt... You're in a rut! 😂 😂 😂 There, ANOTHER rut for ya! 😂

& I'm still stuck on the same Southern band. This was one of my favorites to hear live whenever I saw `em.. just the guitar licks brings those times back...

It's got to be pretty dead in here if I'm making the last three consecutive posts over about a 24 hour period Like I said👃, because I need my stuff Had almost the same tonight, except I will have some more of that cheesecake that I had earlier. Anyhow it was not Kobe, so not total sacrilege. Man tonight's still had some pink but wasn't med-rare like last nights in the above picture. Pimento cheese in an 8oz container cost more???

Videologic Digitheater DTS is a good speaker "package" for $600. Its multimedia thou, not HT. Its 5.1 as well, check out some reviews of it if you want more info.-Gxcad c>

I have a new KK266-R and was wondering what you think it means when its turned on with everything in place and it fails to post or beep, and sends no signal to the monitor. The last time I remember my computer did this was when I oced my proc too far... I have never gotten my KK266-R to post but it does receive power (all the fans and jigamawats start to light up and turn).... any ideas? Thanks-Gxcad c>

It seems like someone set me up the bomb...I mean I think my cpu is busted, I have tried various tests to come to this conclusion. Well, I have a 1.33 t-bird on the way so when that arrives I will find out now won't I? -Gxcad c>

IMO, the CP1 improves bass. It is punchier and theres more of it -Gxcad c>

Did you use the quintets with the pros sub (substituted the pros sats with quintets?) I kinda wanted to do this...-Gxcad c>

Cabbage, read thread "my thoughts about the new 4.1" for...you guessed it! My thoughts about the new 4.1 -Gxcad c>

I forgot to mention I noticed something very interesting. When I had the CP1 hooked up to the sats with the old xover there was hiss when in idle (like the original high gain preamp) but when I used the new sats there was no hiss! Maybe the new sats have a lower volume compared to the old sats cuz I also noticed that they *might* have sounded quieter than the old ones at the same position on the preamp. Of course, it can also mean that the new sats simply reproduce less white noise, which is probably a good thing -Gxcad c>

Ok first off, I got them from soundcity.com and they were $294ish including all fees. I've tried the CP1 with the old sats before I went full out and setup the 4.1. The CP1 seemed to enhance the gain (louder) and bass was louder and tighter (less boomy). The sound also MIGHT have sounded a little clearer, but it was so hard to tell that it probably was my ears playing tricks on me. Ok now new satellites, Boom! Yes there is noticibly more midrange! I think there is also less excessive sound...if you know what I mean. I'd hardley call it an improvement straight up, I'd say most people would say its an improvement but its very debateable and I bet there'd be a lot of people who prefered the old crossover. The sats don't have improved sound quality, they merely have a slightly different type of sound, so its a matter of taste weither its an upgrade or not, IMO.Theres my short report! -Gxcad c>

No promedia or acoustic edge? Also...superorb? hmmmm....-Gxcad c>

Oops! I guess I'm a little late here but I would of mentioned the Sony GDM-F400, this is the absolute best Sony 19 inch monitor and since it is no longer produced, if you can find one you can get it for ~$550 (originally $1000) The reviews for this monitor are like what you read about the promedias, minus the bang for buck comments.-Gxcad c>

Klipsch recommends putting the port at least 6 inches from the wall and each woofer 2 inches I think. This is perfect distance if you put your sub right against the wall with the port facing the corner. They also mentioned that it won't damage the sub if you don't follow those guidelines, just that they recommend them. Also, this may not be accurate since it is from memory and not from searching the archives, but I think it was 6 from port 2 from each woofer.-Gxcad c>

If you ask me, BASH doesn't sound like much of a technology, rather more like a sound effect. I've been using BASH technology for years, particularly when I'm frustrated. Ex: If computer fails to boot, BASH head on keyboard 21 times while chanting "All your BASH are belong to us" Note: You do not have to chant unless you have upgraded to Win ME. Ex2: New features of windows 2000: #1 CTRL-ALT-DEL is now used to START your computer. Note: you can not get windows 98 to overclock into windows 2000 no matter how much cooling or voltage you give it. In those examples, I am using BASH technology against Microsoft. This is commonly refered to as BASHing. On a more serious note, I think the 2.1's don't have BASH because BASH is a technology used for the 4.1 sub, which has 2 drivers. Since the 2.1 has only 1 driver, it does not need this BASH technology for it to work?? Correct me if I'm wrong . -Gxcad Edit: I am sleepy c>

I remember hearing something like the cp1 will improve sub compression and make each channel more distinct...correct me if I'm wrong.-Gxcad c>

Unit is in great shape, has remote and original manual. Would prefer local pick up in the Charlotte / Matthews NC area. Mark performed one repair to correct a problem with fuses blowing too easily and the unit has been flawless ever since. $1200 OBO

A blast from the past - who was there ? Keep in mind that Bach was an instrument builder and developed many organs. So he probably would have approved of this

Where is the F18 full afterburner fly over with resultant 2000lbs bomb?

Thanks for the info. Better pictures over there.

I never met a Cornwall I didn't like.

We’ve had covid at my house recently and I’m still feeling a little bit more tired than usual but not as bad as the first time I had it. It’s 28° and clear here this morning and we are supposed to hit 55° this afternoon.

Not familiar with the story of how Brewer and Schacher fucked Mark Farner?

Sounds like a bad diaphragm in the tweeter or squawker. Try swapping from the good speaker to the distorted one, one at a time.

Just one easily searchable example that gain and feedback have an intimate relationship.

Wanna bet?

Don Brewer played with Seger, at least once. Ain't it the truth...

I thought the resident cheerleader would be here soon to copy/paste something. He must be out sick.

Yeah a Belle Klipsch works well. Here is mine before I inverted it for better response. Belle Klipsch for rears and Heresy as side surrounds.
