  1. What a shame This is what I remember her from.
  2. I don't have any new vinyl. Won't have any until Record Store Day April 22nd
  3. Not only do they sound great, they are built in Hope, USA and can withstand the impact of a speeding truck: http://www.klipsch.com/blog/klipsch-speakers-track-tested-thanks-to-the-ihra Quote from blog post linked above: "One of the Klipsch KI-396 speakers found itself directly in the path of Pierce’s Chevrolet S-10, sending it flying through the air. If you watch the video close enough you can see the unlucky speaker catch some air. Jason Rittenberry, CEO & President of IRG Sports + Entertainment, humorously described the speaker’s flight. “We use Klipsch products at all of our Nitro Jam events and one of the Klipsch speakers went for a wild ride after an accident during the event,” said Rittenberry. It didn’t look so good at first for the custom KI-396 speaker… Rittenberry added, “It took a hard hit from a race car and landed in the mud. After repairing the cable, the speaker worked just fine. It’s a testament to the quality of their product.”
  4. I see mumps, could be the angle or lighting.
  5. I would agree if Speed was real comfortable with manually programing things like VCR start and stop times, Universal remotes etc. the transition to manual entry on the DX isn't too much. If that sort of stuff drives you crazy, or if he is from the generation of on screen users, Race might be a lot easier. The guys who do this for a living used Race. Plus with Race you can copy additional presets and tweak those to your taste, plus you can change presets back and forth on the fly from your listening chair. The visual interface in Race shows what is happening with crossover frequencies, etc. which for someone like me with very limited brain function on such matters helped me understand what was going on with these settings. Speed I think you will be fine either way.
  6. Well that's two. That's a good point about the RS 232 data port, but you don't get an RS 232 to RS 232, you get a RS 232 to USB, there are 7 bucks. It will take a new user about an hour to manually input one set of settings. It took me five minutes enter the bass boost preset once that was available from Roy.
  7. Speed @mikebse2a3 can tell you everything technical you need to know. He wrote the original Fact Sheets on Jubilees with @Chief bonehead input and apprival.
  8. It will be compatible with Race software. I think Coyotee is the only one I know that suggests you use manual entry. The majority of people who tried manual missed a setting or two. It can take hours. If it were me I would get the right RS 232 cable to plug in computer. Go ahead and download Race from EV website and see if it work on your laptop. I would hook up your current amp and preamp to the Bass bin unless you have a LOT of experience listening to music through a bass bin only. It is going to sound like total crap and you are going to think something is wrong. You won't be able to wrap your mind around the fact that when the 402 comes in with the MF/HF the combination makes perfect sound.
  9. The two LF sections on the Bass bin come bridged from the factory (connected together in the proper way) you hook up the connection to either one.
  10. And Roy has checked and approved those settings for the 691. Travis
  11. That's a piece of cake especiallyif you hook it up to laptop and use the Race software. It's an outdated interface! RS 232, but makes life a whole lot easier. Put in Roy's std. settings as a preset, and his bass boost settings as another preset and go from there. Travis
  12. This is the best source if you want US data https://www.riaa.com/u-s-sales-database/ https://www.riaa.com/reports/news-notes-2016-riaa-shipment-revenue-statistics/

  14. Yes, this is just a local park for that district. Mexico City has has a large urban park similar to Central Park, that dates back to the time of the Aztecs, called Chapultepec. There are major Museums, a zoo, Zoo municipal auditorium, etc. I would say it is about double the size of Central Park.
  15. Copenhagen, Denmark Superkilen — a public park in the Nørrebro district of the city.
  16. That is the Parque de Pueblo. It's a park and a zoo.
  17. Only a audio/speaker nut from the 70s would know that. Weren't those blue grills the coolest? I was wrong, it wasn't a Martini, it was a glass of wine. My memory must be failing, or it must be close to Martini Corner in AR. with @CECAA850
