  1. I see some sealed 18" in someone's future!
  2. You will lose roughly 2 dB. Unless you plan on trying out for a SPL contest the slimmer model is more than enough. Going from 15" to 12"? Not compared to a JL F113, right? Direct radiator bass such as from a JL F113 is different than horn-loaded bass. If you like KHorn bass, you'll like THT bass.
  3. I recall the same comment, but didn't comment at the time because I agreed with the context. The Table Tuba is a good for music while the THT is also good for movies (in addition to music). The Table Tuba just doesn't go low enough for movies. Admittedly, the THT drops like a rock below 20 Hz and some people are not satisfied with that as well. The lil wrecker is interesting as well, and the Cinema F20.
  4. 80W is more than enough. KHorn and 3 La Scala? Sweet! You'll want a horn-loaded sub to make an all-horn-loaded HT system! How are you going to biamp KHorns?
  5. I get the same. The lowest zero dB crossing occurs at 30 Hz and falls below that rather quickly for me. Still better than their rating.
  6. I think most will say no.But I ran the rc-64ii with the corns when i first got them and had them in my ht. I also ran a quartet but the rc-64ii is a much better speaker than a quartet so i would use the 64 if i had to chose one of the two. Indeed surprising yet intriguing information! Was any AVR room EQ applied that might have evened out tonal differences?
  7. Either might just work! I'd go for the cove myself.
  8. or for surrounds, the KPT-100 probably still available in the garage Sale section are nice.

    Shipping was free? It says FOB
  10. Last night's movie: Red 2 I was startled several times by explosions and gun shots; lots of impact!
  11. The THT itself won't vibrate but I suppose a panel in front of it might, so hard to say. Now if you mounted the TV on the THT itself, that would be pretty safe. It it a good spot for a sub? It is a good spot in that it is large and can hide the sub completely away without taking up any floor space. I am talking about mounting it up several feet off of the ground in a cove in the wall behind a TV. I can overbuild the panel for the TV to be mounted (probably out of 4 x 4's). There is also a spot in the same cove on the floor under the fireplace. I can create corner more of a corner load there but it will take up space that I wanted to use for storage. The space behind the TV is completely wasted space. Cool. Post a pic of the space in the context of the room!
  12. Very cool. Yet another feature to make AVRs obsolete.

    Kpt-100

    I resized your pic to 800x800 before uploading it. I think Chad could have easily resized all the old large pics when he moved them over. He could still. It's easy enough to script (just a few lines of shell script in Linux).
  15. And now for something completely different... KHorns don't have funky impedance curves and are easy to drive. I use an external amp but don't really hear the difference if I use it or not. Maybe I am limited by the pre-amp of my cheap HK receiver, but it sounds great to me with texture in string intruments and pin-point imaging.

    KPT-100?

    Just topped it off: https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/139441-kpt-100/

    Kpt-100

    That link is broken with the new forum, but I am almost sure this is the (resized) picture, since I had saved it. So for the benefit of others...
  18. With his skills he'd be crazy not to build it...

    KPT-100?

    Great score! You will love them! If you are up to soldering one wire in, there's a simple crossover mod to remove the X-Curve high-frequency attenuation. Takes 10 minutes per speaker (and allows you to take a peek inside!)
  20. Because my AVR is cheaper than a pre/pro.
  21. Those look more familiar. But I suppose EMs had to start somewhere too, so maybe the first one posted was an early one.
  22. That would be surprising. Electron microscope have gains of up to 10 million X. The detail would be much much higher than on that image. A colleague is using CT scan to image plankton and showed examples made using an electron microscope. Impressive stuff.
  23. That's what AT screens are for!
  24. Here is a review.... http://www.andrew-robinson-online.com/review-airflex5d-af5d-30-projector-stacking-system/ Interesting, thanks!
