  1. Thanks! Give me a little time to finish them up and you would be more than welcome to come listen. mike tn Wow... that's awesome... I'm buying if we do get the chance to meet up
  2. i hope you guys know that the winning bid only shows the amount they beat you by and in reality they could have outbid you by thousands. you don't know if it was 2.53 - 20.53 - 200.53 or 2000.53. i bid 1800 on a set of cornwalls and got them for 900.. i was so happy i saved 900i usually only bid once with 15 seconds left in the auction. you should never show your bid early than that if you really want to win. don't give other bidders a chance to increase theirs. if you look at the winning bid they usually only bid once. this was no disrespect to Schu and again losing by 25 doesn't tell the whole story. the winning bidder could have bid 5 grand on these speakers. ^^Exactly... I thought in this climate $1700 was going to be enough to take those home... guess not. I dont need a sniper service though I do see teh usefulness for those that might be less inclined to watch auctions like I am.
  3. another mike in TN... go figure. Awesome awesome sound projectors there mike. love to experience them someday
  4. hmmm... thanks. I dont use snipers(dont want to pay for something I can do myself), i just need to pay more attention next time and be willing to ante up. seeing as I have over 1100 transactions(99% purchases) on Da Bay, I know my way around fairly well. I was just being hopeful that 1700 would take these home in this economic climate... oh well. now only if gilbert will accept an offer on a set of cornwalls I can skip over from TN to pick them up... not very hopeful there either
  5. yeah... I am the corner dunce the 1700 I bid that held till 10seconds left wasn't even close enough to the selling price of 1725... next time I will bid 1750 [] regardless of asking price, a thing is only worth what someone is willing to pay
  6. Les Paul just passed away... Godspeed Lester
  7. I could never understand the point of these lists... Having played myself for near 40 years, i find these comparisons very troubling... there is no such thing as the best art... it's just art. but if you want to discuss players and the styles you love personally, I have to go with a relatively short list in no particular order... Steve Howe Juan Serrano Adrian Belew - Frank Zappa Jimi Hendrix John Mclaughlin Danny Gatton Joe Pass Chet Atkins Les Paul Monte Montgomery - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8_6aa-TTvI Both those two links above are WELL worth the time to watch... Monte's for his technical ability, Adrians for his ultra subtle abilities, mastery of electronics and musical voice. Both videos are very special...
  8. OKay... what I want to know is, who outbid me for the Brazilian Belles on the Bay? Ugh Peace [D]
  9. OH MY GOD... that horn and belle are beautiful. [Y]
  10. i've often wodnered... does anyone know where to get replacement Cane material?
  11. Congrates on the CW's... Envy ensues...
  12. I take it then they have a different texture to the sound delivery when compared to a Heritage speaker?
  13. are the klf 30's good for music when compared to say the cornwall or heresey? I see from the specs they have a great range and the peak and max wattage appears to be really high. Or prehaps these are better suited for audio visual treatments. thanks
  14. I grew up in southen california and know exactly where this is... tunnels and newcombs ranch. it doesnt surprise me that its the perfect place to get echos.. there are actually two tunnels inline with each other that are seperated by about 30 yards and they over look a canyon that goes all the way down to the san gabriel valley... love that horn by the way
  15. i can perfectly visualize what you are describing... thank you for taking the time to help me understand something that maybe fundimental to others.
  16. i love the almighty Shroom to... i wish I knew how to pick them.
  17. klipsch Versus Altec Lansing... I have become increasing aware of some really nice looking vintage Altec Lansing speakers that are horn loaded. For those with much mor eknowledge than I, what are the sound differences? Are the Vintage altecs as desirable as the klipsch seems to be?
  18. or choice of scooter... at least ride carefully. rubber side down [Y]
