Me Two

Unsatisfactory look ??? I always kept mine with the back to a wall or a corner....Didn't look at the back unless moving

I may be a freak as well. I like the Lux

The back is more important than the motor board IMHO The 3/4" ply works great! To my ear it made the back side of the woofer more pronounced Just be careful and not screw into the mid driver.

Great choice Jerry! Listened to them with 402/510 combo. Devastating !!! LF like a boot in the chest.

I always poke the bear with a stick on this one...... Only horn loaded bass bins are effortless with low distortion???? How about the nasty old reflex speakers? Isn't the KPT 415 a 107db bass bin. And it has a Slam Factor of 10! And PS: Maroon 5 sucks big smile

Can someone please explain this to me? The USA is oil independent. ?? The largest producer in the world. So why do fuel prices go up when a Saudi well gets attacked? Or if a US refinery burns, prices go up the next day when there is no shortage ???

My brother.....

Ah come on.... I had a construction company for many years and protected my ears on the job. Saved them for music.

Thank you!

Thanks Bill. I had not considered that. My ear hears something a bit odd when a coned woofer produces the mids in a reflex design. I want to hear the horn produce most of the midrange. I cross my DBB's at 450hz using an extreme slope circuit on the LF board. Subjective I guess. ??? tc

Thanks. With the larger horn I had hoped that it would cross deeper......

Deano, How dare you speak lowly of my brother Irishman!! He suffers from the Curse of the Irish just like the rest of us. God created whiskey so that the Irish wouldn't rule the earth.

Has anyone mentioned Woodford Reserve ??

Hey Boss, Where does the mid horn cross?? tc

First name Terry JC and a few call me TC Nickname from older friends.....Toots

That was in my room at HI Express just before the pizza arrived

!

That it is. Listened to the 415/ 402-510 combo. Just outstanding!! tc

Good solution Deano! tc

I thought you Texas boys only listened to cowboy music? Love to poke a fellow Texan when I can. smile The jazz I do not like is a cut where they never play the same note twice. And then there is Dixie Land. Liked Chicago when they were Chicago Transit Authority. But that was rock. IMO After that they were lite top 40 radio cuts to make money. BS&T where somewhat more jazz inspired. EL&P hit some Jazz licks but had a classical flair as well. Great live! Liked Fusion such as very early Jeff Lobber. Big band Swing? In my early 30's a friend and I went to a supper club called Zigfield's; With hair down our backs and in 3 piece suits we were the only people there under age 70. Cocktails and Count Basie live? We were floored!!! Got to spend some time with him afterword. Still have his autograph on a cocktail napkin. Under the radar is Art Pepper. "Miss Who?" is killer!! George Duke on keyboards. (Zappa) Will listen to the hotter cuts of snooze jazz in background when reading.

If I were looking for a beater pair to refurbish they would be great. $600.00 for the pair......max

Wink & Smile.....

Love my old Lux. But not a receiver. I run two M117 power amps (bridged) with that same tubish quality sound. Bi-amped on the bottom. MONSTERs. tc
