  1. You guys have too much time on your hands lol. I'm a stubborn type who gets focused and "will win" the fight.... at perhaps the cost of losing the war. I was focused on getting this thumb drive reformatted to FAT32, then I messed up the partition, the volume was messed up. I couldn't figure out how to get the volume corrected. Nothing I was trying worked (I DID however, get reacquainted with may old DOS commands and discovered the "Powershell" program!) Anyway, went to Gatlinburg to have lunch with a life long friend....and on way home, stopped at store and bought another thumb drive that was already formatted to correct size and FAT32. Now that I know the outboard disk being plugged into my monitor was the issue, this should work like a charm. If not, I'll take my Ipod with me and try to use it (it freaks out and dies sometimes when used in car but NEVER does it when used while mowing, only in car) I was leaving for Beaufort SC the next day so I had one shot to copy audio files and try cold turkey in morning to see if it worked. Worked like a charm so my problem is fixed and I now have two unused thumb drives that I'll reformat to EXfat or NTSB (or whatever the new format is) For $10, I can just throw the recently bought drive away....but I won't.
  2. I've been moving LaScalas since 1979. Just needed to rent a furniture hand truck, until I finally bought one. Nobody's seen your layout.....but in my opinion, Khorns are one of the most space efficient speakers made since they use what is typically wasted corner space. If you have empty corners, they could be your best utilization of your space instead of speakers that might need to be moved out from the wall a bit. Neighbors? Bah.... if you respect the volume knob they won't even know they exist. I had a pair of Jubilee's and two Danley DTS 10's in an apartment. Nobody had a clue what was in there and never a single complaint.
  3. I thought they got it fixed (internally) however, I'd agree that I have no idea that it ever actually played. It was dissected and I took some pics to see how it was assembled.
  4. Hours later, it "finished".....except it didn't. I got an error message. 0 percent completed The volume size is too big Can someone say, in a step by step fashion, how to fix that AND, if you can.....how to do a quick format? I've tried format fs=Fat32 quick (and) [quick] (and, what I believe was the old way) /q Not sure if I did /quick Sure takes a long time otherwise. I DID however, get the Ipod synching correctly so I have a plan "B". The Ipod however, was wonky the other day and would stop playing & die on me so something is goofy there too. I'm willing to give it the ole, college try.... but won't be the end of me if I can't get it sorted out.
  5. A bit of a rhetorical meandering.... What was the exact top horn designed to go with these? If it was the K403 then....those are now gone so these are not a full pair, as designed. Seems to me if you had a 100% authentic GTO or Enzo Ferrari..... it would have a higher value than if you had the same vehicle with a different brand engine where it got swapped out. "These" are not as designed by PWK (seems to me). He will likely make a profit on these but I doubt he'll make the killing he's trying to get. But, who knows.
  6. Not fully out of the woods yet.... I couldn't get the thumb to quick/format so it's taking forever to do a straight up format. (just now at 8% and I started before my prior post) I've also gotten one of my Ipods to also react so it seems things are happening but at a snails pace. Won't know for sure until I get something on the thumb then the big test.... in the car. Right now, looks like my parking brake is off and these wheels are at least turning.
  7. I might have figured it out. After chasing my tail for two days (good thing I'm not paying by the hour for this fix!) The errors I was getting seemed to indicate the "sending" drive (I also have an external which is what I was using) was the issue.... got to thinking about changing ports and I've changed my thumbs into ALL different ports.....but never the sending drive. The outboard drive is connected to the back of my monitor which then, is connected to the back of the laptop. Changed it to the front port on the PC and gave it a try. Instead of the speed petering out, it slowed down.....then inhaled and jumped back up again. It did NOT do this before so I'm hopeful this was my issue. Went to reformat one of my thumbs to FAT32 and that's where it is now. Stupid me didn't put the quick format switch on so it's taking forever.
  8. I've put it on a port on the front and the rear. This is only PC I have. What's interesting is, I have a 512 gig thumb drive, I got it working (a year ago) and brought it in to add some files to it....and now, blammo, nothing but issues. Now, I think I've killed all the existing data on the thumb drive so, sent wife to get a smaller drive that is 128 gig in size. I've been tinkering around with dos commands (Admin Command Prompt / DiskPart) but it's been since Windows 3.1 that I've tinkered with DOS commands.... Can't even recall how to create a Volume (barely got a partition created, presuming I did it correctly)
  9. lol, too funny. My understanding is the car needs FAT32 (but to be fair, don't think I've ever tried xfat. My son..... is worthless, clueless..... oh yeah, I don't have a son (nor daughter)
  10. Making a road trip. Looking to copy some tunes onto my thumb drive so I can put into car. I have a large drive, had to reformat it to FAT32 to make it work. Worked fine. Pulled it out to add some tunes to it and everything has 'hit the fan'. As backup, I pulled thumb out of car, went to update Ipod.....and the REST of the stuff, hit the fan. So, long story short, I want to copy roughly 93 gigs onto thumb. I'm getting an error. 0x800701B1. Prior to getting this error, the "copy box" shows with the line that rises/falls as the data moves but what I notice is the line (transfer rate I think) starts high....goes down.....then down.....then down to zero, every time. I know before it would go both up and down. Thinking I had corrupted the thumb, had the wife buy me a preformatted (FAT32 so the car evidently reads it) smaller one today. I get the same issue. I'd really like to get this figured out so I don't have dead silence or weak radio stations as I hit the road. Anyone know about this?
  11. Bundle of Mogami 2534 Neglex, this is about $1.50/foot I have some different lengths These have the Neutrik "Profi" connectors on both ends and a couple have Profi on one end with Neutrik on other end. All of these would have been used to get the Undergrounder's singing but when the closet was built, I went ALL XLR and made new ones. How about same $10 plus shipping. Look up the Profi connectors, they're spring loaded on the ground so you COULD hot swap them and the ground is first to touch, last to let go.
  12. Next (on the right) I have 23' of the same Belden 8412 wire. Only two wires (both 23') These have Neutrik connectors on both ends, males as you can see are 90 degree How's about same $10 plus shipping
  13. First is four (4) 10' lengths Belden 8412 wire with Neutrik (female) connectors on one side, Don't recall the brand of the RCA connectors on other end. The wire alone is about $2.15/foot so it's about 40 feet of wire with the connectors. It's the four wires on the left in picture How about $10 plus shipping PS: Working on home projects AND leaving town later in week for several days so I will be slow to respond.
  14. I too went "wha???"

    Mark Knopfler ...

    I presumed he was more active than I had thought! Good stuff, thank you. Listening to the second link above.... so far, first two....not familiar to me. Looks like someone is going shopping.
  16. I'm familiar with Dire Straits. What I'm NOT familiar with is....Knopfler's solo career. Can't say I'm aware of a single finger pick post Dire. Anything in his solo career a must have? (I'm more a fan of live stuff but always open to all)
  17. None the less.... good to see/hear all you dunderheads!
  18. that is the second phase of this collection disease....babble talk. I'd venture that Jubilees might be on his distant horizon.
  19. Congrats Dean! Nice to wake up this morning to an announcement like this.
  20. I took the train from Cuzco to Macchu Picchu. I forget how long it took but it went over some harrowing terrain. Specifically, I'm thinking of some bridges and next to the river. (that's my father framed by the foliage)
