Damon, nice blog. Will definitely keep it within my sights.[H] Yank

Missed that one. A paint I used which works perfectly with MDF and after 2 coats becomes waterproof: http://www.acrytech.com/store.asp?pid=14119 Only issues I had were that while water cleanup did in fact work, you still had to work hard to cleanup. Results, awesome. I used a heavy splatter roller which made a stucco like finish but rounded tips. Also, self priming too[] Yank

I built a pair of speakers earlier in the year and used double refined MDF. 1" thck 4x8 sheet was over 90 lbs. As in the earlier post, the stuff Lowes and HomeDepot sells is crap, plain and simple. Look on edge and the stuff at Lowes has different coloration. The double refined feels and cuts like concrete so if you are going to work with it, make sure you have an extra set of hands and some very sharp tools. Here was my supplier within the mid-atlantic. They even carry up to 2" thick Double Refined MDF: http://russellplywood.com/mediumdensityfiberboard.html Yank

Those are a pair of L46's I rehabed myself. Not a bad sounding bookshelf speaker if I say so. Yank

I bought a pair of JBL speakers from them that when I hooked them up both tweeters were fried! As others have stated, they made good on tweeters, a grill that was missing and kept me in the loop all the time to ensure I knew what was going on. I have to say that even though what I bought from them was received in not as advertised condition, their support alone made up the difference for me. I would buy from them again if I came across something I needed. Yank

You could use an Ipod docking station which have a line out jack, just like portable CD's and then get a 1/8" line out to rca adaptor and use your aux inputs.

Today, I was getting ready for fall and figured I would take my SA-3's off their mounts and clean them up. Well I couldn't believe it, they had about 2 cups of water in each speaker! The amazing part is both were still operational! I have had mine for 5 years now without incident. It is a shame that Klipsch no longer manufactures this model with the 8" bass reflex cabinet (which is how the damn water got into the speaker in the first place!). Anyone else run Klipsch outdoor speakers? I plan on repainting the cabinets on mine over the next week with Krylon Fusion paint. Yank

Would be nice to hold an AK East Coast Chapter rally since some of us cannot make it the middle of the country[] Yank

I figured I would ask, who uses Klipsch outdoor speakers and if so, what models? I have a pair of SA-3's (in white) which I run via a Sansui AU-G99X 160 watt/ch vintage integrated with about 90 feet of 12 gauge ground rated OFC wire per channel. Separated about 30 feet per channel, ear level (vertical mounted) and about 15 feet back from the end of my 20x40 foot deck. Currently since the nights are getting way below freezing, the speakers are sleeping in their original packing in my basement. I am SO ready for spring! Yank

What is a ball park figure for a pair that are "supposedly" in good shape?

Tried to PM you but failed. I would love to see some hi-res pics please!

you're welcome! John

SOLD! Rich you are the man! Nothing like meeting someone for the first time on I-95 and at 4:30 pm in the afternoon! Hope you like 'em, I did, just did not have the correct setup (mine is SS) for them. John

Here is serial number 8512127 frontal. Yank

Here is a frontal shot of 8512126. To all, sorry! Had lots going on the past few days, blah blah blah! Yank

Here is speaker B's serial number. Yank

Here is speaker A serial number. Yank

I have a very nice pair of Walnut HWO speakers serial number consecutive: 8512126 and 8512127 Speakers have the angled risers (correct terminology ??). Anyway I will post pics tomorrow afternoon but I will absolutely not ship these speakers. My zip code is 19320. 350.00 for the pair. John

Currently my outdoor rig is Nikko anchored by an Alpha-220 power amplifier (120 watts/ch) to a pair of SA-3's. Been running the SA-3's since summer of 2001 and they kick ***! Have them mounted about 9 feet off the ground to the side of my house over the basketball court. Now that Spring is finally arriving here in the North East, I will be pulling them out of indoor storage today! Yank

So here it is the end of summer. Had dinner with wife and kids outside while listening to Syro Gyra. Finally got around to hooking up my sub the 12 inch JBL psw-d112 to help supplement the lower octave and man what a difference. Had the Heresy's already corner loaded with the angled risers being fed by the adcom gfa-5800. Adding the sub really added a bit of authority to the sound. Has anyone else done something similar? BY

I have a pair, 1985 vintage, which trully lack the lower octave. I am rearranging the listening room (12x16) so I can put the Heresy's into the corners. This will mean the sub will have to sit between them along the 12 foot wall. Currently I drive the Heresy's with an Adcom GFA-5800 so I wanted a sub with 2 channel in/outs, variable crossover and a lot of power (600-1000 watts). I have seen the threads on SVS and visited the website but wanted some input from other Heresy owners to see what they have done. Yank

Finally took a look inside!
