  1. "I bought a xps awhile back and got the most expensive speakers (klipsch 5.1 sound system)" These aren't the most expensive speakers, I suggest you upgrade to 2 Klipschhorns, 3 La Scala's and if you wish a RSW 15. If that's not enough bass, move to earth... (to a house with corners...). One more thing,.. O wait, no I'm not Columbo. []
  2. Always good to see you Joe! On the forum and on the map! [H]
  3. Thank you very much. This week I arrived an hour early at work everyday, until I noticed In Holland daylight savings starts next week. [8o|]
  4. If the link still works in 2014, it probably works and I will become a dealer.[<)] (note: I meant a smily with a funnel on the head)
  5. Ok. Thanks all! Food for thought. It's not rental btw and yes the neighbors might benefit . First I will stare at the speakers and think about the possibilities, then I will translate Garyc into the metric system. [8-|] There is no way the speakers can fit snug onto the back wall as they are now, It is sloping. I will take pics. Thanks again, Tim.
  6. Hi all. I probably know the answer to this, but think with me. I just moved to a top story building where the back wall starts to tilt inwards, because the pointed roof starts there. So... My Khorns are snug/sealed to the side walls, but at the back there is an opening. Snug at the top, but a serious few inches of space at the bottom. I guess the only way is to build a straight (false) wall at the back? One more question. How long should the falls walls extend beyond the speakers, or is it most important that the seal is there? Thanks, Tim.
  7. Feel free to add me in The Hague, The Netherlands. I only have a few minutes behind the pc now. I'll check in later. Greets, Tim.
  8. How to create false corners for the K-horn.
  9. I wished I was there. I had a great time in BC a decade ago. Lived on Mayne Island for a year. Made trips to the mainland now and then. Best time of my life!
  10. Exactly! We are no different either. Everybody wants the best product for the best price. The fact that we, being audionuts, will pay the price of a middleclass car for a set to play our records is... well deviant. Most consumers buy plastic crap and are happy with it. Supply versus demand. Competition is the base of kapitalism. That accounts for all kind of consumers, also the companies that consume work labour. If you want loyalty to laborers and fellow citizens, start with raising taxes big time, some would say. Striving for maximum profit is embedded in western society. The USA being the leader. This is not an attack, I love the USA, but every system and country has its disadvantage. And the Global economy can not be evaded anymore. Hey, I'm Dutch and I buy Klipsch and MCIntosh! and proud of it... Ofcourse I am also proud of my Dutch Philishave and... ehm The Dikes?
  11. These guys are Beatle nuts. Tons of info. http://www.stevehoffman.tv/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=2
  12. No, the harshness of the tweeter are the electrons blasted through your brain. With Iron Maiden they are even radioactive! Makes your head bang...
  13. And from accross some others... [^]
  14. What a relief! A belated Merry Christmas! Looking forward to see you on the forum, Win!
  15. That is new to me too. I'm sad now. We exchanged mails now and then, but that was a few years ago. Good guy.
  16. Yeah! I watched a few of those on youtube. Good stuff! Once in a lifetime (Talking Heads) is a good one too. At the end with the two old guys ( forgot their names on this monday morning): "Same as it ever was"... "Yeah, terible."[]
  17. I'm more a classical kind of guy. Rock 'n roll is dangerous for our youth! []
  18. I'd love to play tabletennis on the moon. With plenty of balls and beer off course. I wonder how Klipschhorns would sound on the moon. Dead silent? [^o)]
  19. They are called Fokke en Sukke, Friesian names, (from the Dutch Northern province). They are daily cartoon figures, always making a satyrical statement about news facts. Pretty funny. http://www.foksuk.nl/ Now that I have derailed a beautiful thread, at least I have bumped it... [:$] Btw, they must be available as toys, let me know if you are interested....
