  1. Coulterphoto-- Yes you do. You deserve a special picture unto yourself.!!! Klipsch should sell a plenty with your mug!
  2. Awesome bumpishness. Last Call... These records are sitting in my garage, in my empty house. Come'n'get'm Otherwise they goto Godwill or some other "charitable organization" this weekend. Free to good home. etc. etc. etc.
  3. Interesting list! Unfortunately, my internet time is limited, so I'll make the most of it!!! I've always had a "Top xxx" list in my head. The list posted sort of mirrors what has already been said. But my brain works a little different. IMHO... As a musically inclined metalhead product of two classically trained hippies my tops in each decade are: 60s: Sgt Pepper's... Cant disagree there. Love the Petsounds, but SPLHCB was off the map. 70s: DSOTM... can't tell you how many times I listened to this with my ma. Top notch everything -- songwriting, lyrics, recording, concept, etc. 80s: Beastie Boys -- Paul's Botique... And here is where the differeces start. There was more music references/samples than you could shake a stick at. Nothing had ever been done like this before, and nothing will ever be done like this ever again. Thanks to lawyers. 90s: Pantera -- Vulgar Display of Power... As a metalhead, homage must be paid to this. There was plenty of metal to go around back then, but ALL of today's metal can be traced back to this album. And I can't stand most of today's metal. Ok. Gotta go.
  4. I love F1 for the technology I love NASCAR for the close racing I love NHRA for the sheer brutality I love School Bus Figure 8s for... Hell, I love all motorsports. Boats, swampbuggies, tractor pulls, lawnmowers, monster trucks, Baja, motorcycles, Its all good to me.
  5. Anything Frank Booth says to Dorothy Vallens in "Blue Velvet"... Very romantic stuff.
  6. Been wearing Revo's since 1988... until this year. They're now owned by RayBan (I've owned plenty of those too) and the quality of the glass and frames has gone to crap. I recommend looking for some vintage Revos in good condition on ebay. I never, ever, EVER thought I would own Joke-leys... but I put a pair of teh Gascans on my skull and the fit me perfectly. I'm not too happy about the grey lense (I like the orangey looking one) but I was in a pinch.
  7. Was in a circus for 6 years. Walked the high wire, caught the trapeze, rode the unicycle, and juggled (and a ton of other stuff that noone would recognize) -- Sometimes a combination of all of the above. Travelled to Lima, Peru for a month to perform daily down there. Was on Peruvian National Television one evening with an estimated audience of 10 million (there were at least 50k people in the stadium that night).
  8. Nabors is from Sylacauga, about 40 minutes from my house, so that is in short supply in these parts.
  9. Don't knock the Myren Floren accordian music bro... []

  11. I know I made an offer years ago to part with single records on this forum, but it became logistically impossible for me to do. Oh well... what can I say. Drastic circumstances call for drastic measures, though! The wifey and I are splitting, the house is going to get sold, and I abolutely refuse to tote this record collection around with me one more time in my life. This will be a local pick-up (south of B'ham, 35040 zip) or maybe I can meet someone halfway within reason (a couple hour drive?). I'm not really in this to make money (but certaily wouldn't hurt!) which is why I'd rather not fool with ebay -- I'm just looking to give them a good home most of all. Which is why the offer is on the Klipsch forum esp. 2channel. Best offer takes about 200 pieces of vinyl -- while not are all perfect, most are in good condition, some duplicates, etc. This is what I've kept after paring the colletion down about a dozen times over two dozen years. I'll post the list next.
  12. The official company motto is immodest: A Legend in Sound. The unofficial one, directed at competing manufacturers who make what Paul KIM considers outlandish claims, is blunt: Bullshit. The word is printed on plastic yellow lapel buttons that KIM hands out at trade shows. In addition to the kim and Heresy, the kim Rebel, Shorthorn, Cornwall , La Scala, and Belle kim are among the most well known loudspeakers developed by Paul W. KIM. Many of these models, which are regarded as some of the world's finest, are still manufactured and sold around the world today. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yeah, My guess is that this is not real. If so, then I'd like to get my hands on some of them hi-fidelity karaoke speakers.
  13. This is quite possibly a "project" assigned to a student attending a school of business. I've heard that they will make them create a 'store front' with business plans, marketing strategies, etc. This may very well be part of that.
  14. I've always enjoy seeing thigs built with T6 Al. Them's shore is purdy!
  15. Off the top of my head I can't remember a whole lot of the good stuff. Honestly, I've not listened to much of my CD collection after I got my speakers. Since I'm always trying to find new and exciting music, I've been focused on SACD, DVD, or Sirius Radio while the rest of my collection sits in a corner and rots. I like electronica style stuff (Kruder&Dorfmeister), but the nature of that music lends itself to sounding good anyways. I can say that most of the stuff recorded in the 80's is completely flawed. The mighty 7s are not very forgiving when it comes to fidelity.
