This is the map to use to see how much the duration of the totality is in a particular area. http://xjubier.free.fr/en/site_pages/solar_eclipses/TSE_2017_GoogleMapFull.html?Lat=37.0833&Lng=-88.6&Zoom=9&Map=%27ROADMAP%27&OMap=0 The goal is to be in a spot that is close to 2 minutes, 30 seconds. I have mapped Richard's and it is 2 mins and 21 seconds. We would start the lp so that the last note was playing as the totality ended. The freakish think about a solar eclipse is that it will start out a normal summer day, totally bright, and in CTZ and ETZ, anout the middle of the day it will grow darker and darker and then in a quick instant it will be like someone turned the sun off, it will be as dark as it is with a full moon. About a thousand times more intense than a lunar eclipse. So other songs, You're So Vain has to be at top of the list. Need to play that right before DSOM or after.

Like I said, it will be weather dependant, I thought we would get Kevin to drive his KP 600s up to Coytee's who would have his big rig set up and ready to go. If we had hint of cloud cover we all haul *** up to Paducah. I am trying to figure out how to match that all up with the new Klipsch Heritage Museum Association. How far, in time and distance is it from Knoxville to Paducah?

That is him, but it might be a Monmouth shirt, where is nephew is attending, and have a very similar "M"

Definitely not my favorite. That's the thing about gin. There's a wide variety of tastes. Vodka differences are more subtle once you get into the nicer stuff. As far as gin goes, I like Tanquery Ten and New Amsterdam. For Martini's I like, in this order of preference: Monkey 47 (German), Hendrick's and then Anchor. For Gin and tonics, I prefer Tang Rangpur.

+1 I will even peel the lemons for the lemon twists.

It didn't kill me this year to "sponsor" the martini bar. Special thanks to Jim and Mike for helping with supplies as well. If I get a bottle now and then and put it back for next year I should be good. I was also planning on starting a poll once we get closer to next year to see if there would be any interest in me bringing gin as well. I think it was incredible of you to do that. It was nice to have one of your light and refreshing cocktails after drinking moonshine straight and neat for the two previous days.Next year I will "sponsor" the Bloody Mary bar to give you a break.

Mr. Taylor bought an Ebony mill in Cameroon and is attempting to grow sustainable ebony. He has indicated that his customers will have to start accepting what were previously considered to be flaws as signs of a sustainable wood.

They make kitchen cabinets out of knotty pine veneer, I think they all have a clear protective coating on them that avoids trouble down the road, I'm not sure how it would work in more of a furniture application.

Where would you source Macassar Ebony, or any Ebony for that matter? I think Ebony is going to be off the table for awhile, it is on the CITES list and won't be coming off in the foreseeable future. So is Rosewood from Mexico, South America and Madagascar. That leaves Asian? Is it not as prefered?

It's a no brainer. Levi's has a custom shop, 350 to 500 a pair, in San Francisco. The Fender Custom Shop is legendary. What year are we up to on Paul's birthday this year? Create a Signature Model, Be drivers, etc. Make that Jubilee bass bin in a real exotic wood, with grill covers, and get Roy to make a wood horn to match size of 502. You do that, set it up in a great listening space at CES, I think you could sell a 100 pair right off the floor at 20K a pair retail. Get Billy Bob Thorton to design a pair, and sell a limited edition of those, etc., etc. Made to order, money up front, accurate waiting times given, no inventory to carry. Chad can create an app or way customers can check status, on real time, just like shipping a UPS package? Who ever asked you to check into this is a genius Chad and I like the way they think. I was talking about this very thing with some photographer dude just the other day.

Something else the Bonehead shared was a Klipsch theater trailer is being shown in some theaters, and possibly more will be showing it. Here is the link to YouTube version:
-
The official word from the Chief Bonehead is that the brochure picture is from the Malco Theater in Memphis, Tennessee. It is an older Dolby design, not Atmos. None of my guesses were even close. Bonehead said that the stuff he has been doing lately has been mind blowing. Someone should ask him what are the top five sounding theaters he has ever been in.

So how is law school going?

Any help dating my Forte II's?
Travis In Austin replied to Loneshark's topic in General Klipsch Info
Overreact not me. Just a suggestion. I don't think Lewis and Martin would mind you using their rapier wit on your hot sauce packaging. Any major player with a brand to protect would just love having that associated with them. -

If she has an Adam's Apple, he's not a she. Using that logic... what the hell is Bruce Jenner? A circus act = No BJ from BJ for me. back to he OP: Terminal blocks: round or square? 4 or 8 ohm? If she has an Adam's Apple, he's not a she. Using that logic... what the hell is Bruce Jenner? A circus act = No BJ from BJ for me. back to he OP: Terminal blocks: round or square? 4 or 8 ohm? Oh a comedian. Wow, real funny. Here is a tip for you: Don't quit your day job. You and Wolf are a regular Martin and Lewis. A tip for the both of you, don't quit your day jobs. I would suggest you both delete your posts before a moderator or Chad sees that. Just a suggestion, but hopefully someone can get a new member an answer he wanted before this thread gets locked -
It was great meeting you and visiting with you this weekend.

Kev got some great drone footage he is going to edit together I think will be pretty impressive

Do you use filtered water? At my previous job, one of the guys in our dept. bought a cheap coofee maker. The coofee was terrible, so we cleaned it, ran a bunch of this through it, all to no avail. Got it replaced... same thing. Sent it back... Fast forward to our own move to a new house, different water company, and one morning my withe made the coffee. Exactly the same as the bad coffee at work. Filtered was fine (simple Brita counter top model). I think it's something in the water treat?etment that is reacting with materials in the coofeemaker. Bruce The water is the key. Just like with beer and pizza dough.

So glad Steve is back. Was he at Del Taco on a bender? Waiting on my buddy Luther, he is bringing up a ton of sausage from Smitty's Market. Hoping they have some brisket ready to go this morning to go along with my Starbucks http://smittysmarket.com/

Yes, you get a passive speaker multiple switch box and you avoid any problems. I will look to see if I can post what I am talking about. Travis

Why do many mixers at concerts clip the speakers?
Travis In Austin replied to BobK's topic in Lounge
Well that's not what he said, but that certainly added to the conversation.
