  1. Here is some Poop on the Klipsch Logo authored by The Historian. http://www.klipsch.com/blog/definition-pwk-logo/
  2. I was referring to the wind speed and direction, and the pressure of the balls.
  3. No way. Just send me the drone footage.
  4. So what are the predictions for playoffs?
  5. As I mentioned, for me in started with the airplane when our mechanic recommended that the oil and filters from the gas turbine engines be sent to lab for testing periodically. You have to send in the filters because they are typically 10 micron and don't leave much in the oil for them to test what might be wearing or breaking down. The reports tell you about the life of the oil, debris found in the oil, size, and probable source, detergent capability, contaminants found (for autos this would include coolant, fuel, additives, etc. From there, I started sending oil from cars in for testing, using primarily Blackstone Labs, with the additional particul analysis. The lab measured the results, and they provide you with a detailed analysis of what your oil is doing compared to their extensive database, and they give recommendations. The particle analysis tells you right away if what size the filter is removing particles down to. The SAE has published a couple of articles that correlate the size of debris in vehicle engines with excessive wear, and IIRC they were bigoing on trapping everything above 20 to 25 microns. Travis
  6. Nope, this is where I give you warning points. Just you, nobody else. Have a Happy New Year.
  7. I would try them on that 12' wall just to see. That looks to be what effective width is anyway on the 18' wall.
  8. Awesome all the way around. Merry Christmas.
  9. Sometimes @Chief bonehead can get pretty busy. He will usually respond within a day or two unless he is out of the country, on a project, etc. Maybe y'all can still connect so that if something comes up in the future you are both on the same page. Travis
  10. What the heck. Going to get a spring as suggested, today. By the way, if you have ever gotten that email about when to take baby a spring on a daily basis, it is a total hoax.
  11. Are the drain plugs still metal? I suspect no issues using composite materials. They are used on Ford Powers Stroke diesel motors.
  12. From Edmonds: We decided to do an oil change on a Honda Fit belonging to Consumer Advice Editor Philip Reed to investigate this further. We sucked out the 3.8 quarts of oil and then removed the oil drain plug to see how much more flowed out. We were pleased to see that it was less than 3 tablespoons. This oil didn't appear to be any more contaminated than what had been sucked out by the extractor. We also unscrewed the filter and found it still contained about a quarter cup of oil. It is going to vary from vehicle to vehicle, but 3 tablespoons?
  13. There making pans out of plastic these days. Plastic?
  14. Have read people having similar experience people have had with Fram, like why bother to changer the oil. I have had really good results with Wix on filtration tests, as well as Royal Purple when Wix equlevant wasn't available.
  15. What filters are you finding to be the most effective?
  16. I've never seen a stock one with a magnet. As you know, in aviation, oil changes and filtration are a completely different thing. Every oil change a sample goes off to a lab.
  17. Why don't they magnetize drain plugs?
  18. Why don't they magnetize drain plugs?
  19. Lot of posts on Super tweeters in here. Here is one that has the sensitivity for Klipsch, https://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/bullet-tweeters/fostex-t900a-top-mount-horn-super-tweeter/ Tannoy has a well reviewed nice looking one, but it say max sensitivity is 95db. From a Tannoy?
  20. I hear great things about that Super-tweeter, starts with an M. I have posted on it in the past, I will see if I can find.
