  1. While waiting for my VRD ST to come, I ran mine with one of the 4 2230s that still power 4 sets of Heresey. I do love old iron Enjoy
  2. Welcome to "The Children of the Corn". Great story (my age also for the 1st time). They get smaller as times goes bye, but their sweetness stays. Enjoy! Mike
  3. Not really, as far as set-up, but i have not heard anything that was bad on a corn Enjoy!
  4. Well, not in Mn, but about 100 some miles NE from the cities. Just be a road trip, and the snows melt'n. Let me know. Enjoy
  5. It was 1974, Wauwatosa,Wis. just married and we were looking to out do a buddy's JBL, Crown system. Listened to alot of different set-ups, then, the wife said (at that time) to the salesman "got anything better" (yes! I'm a happy camper now). We went into the back listening room and a whole wall of Mac, Crown, Marantz, all good. There they were. Khorns, Lascalla, Corns and Hs. (no Belles). We both wanted the Ks but our cape cod house had no room for them. Scallas and Hs did'nt cut it, she looked at me with a smile and said we'll take the Corns. We were then told it would be 6 to 8 weeks before Flanners could get them in, ok, not a big deal, signed the paper work and left. 3 days later the phone rings and we could come pick-up the CWOs (buyer back out, good for us). Became a "x" in "96" but the corns are still with me and someday will go to my son (he's already got Hs and Crown). Daughter has Hs and Marantz. Step-daughter has kg4 and Marantz. Think I'll keep buying more, one can never have enough. There's the voices again. Enjoy!
  6. CLEAN POWER!...They all are good to my ears. But thats just me. Have had klf, rf, kg and other makes (non Klipsch). All in home demos, most of my kids stuff comes from that. That said......1st. Heritage.....2nd either.....Forte and or Chorus (II) with upgrades and the time to sit back and Enjoy!
  7. given to me by a young,wanta be, hippie! Enjoy
  8. Looks real good. I have become fond of the folded hand towel under the fronts to slighty raise them. Seems to define the sweet spot in different room areas and or placements. So many litte tweaks make a large difference. Enjoy!
  9. Ran a 7070, long time-ago, sound was really good on the twins at lower or moderate levels. IMHO, most vintage stuff will work great with Klispch. Sansui, HK, Marantz, all good in my book. However and to my ears, HK and Marantz then Sansui. Still have many (given to our kids) all up and run-in pushing Heresy's Enjoy!
  10. Not to far from my back yard. Sweet. Enjoy!
  11. After all the years and many places I've lived, the sweet spot is there. Sometimes just raising the fronts a 1/2 in. made all the difference. I love this game of inches. Enjoy!
  12. ......dieing to live.... but living to die..... Enjoy!
  13. Really nice in the black, given a worl as is. Thanks, Enjoy!
  14. Rickie Lee Jones....Cool... 2 weeks ago, picked-up her 1979 stuff.. Nice. But going with ....The Alan Parsons Project....Tales of Mystery and Imaginaion...( Edgar Allen Poe ) 1976 album and 1987 remix. All Good! Orson Welles speaks highly also. Enjoy!
  15. I may have to choose a new # for the up coming TADA! Nothing lasts forever, but its been fun. Enjoy!
  16. Ah heck! 4 to 8 more weeks of this stuff up here and it will be DUN. Freezing rain and 31 deg now. Its going to be real pretty in the morn as far as a ice skating rink goes. Heating, cold, no problem, I just fire up the tubes and Enjoy!
  17. Just hate those voices, everytime ob brings it up its time for rolling. Yes, my quest is still alive and stronger today than back in the 70s. Enjoy!
  18. Dont have the amp but my C19 pre with bugle boys is a good mate with the corns. Enjoy!
  19. Son (32).....4 Heresys, Crown DC 150, G.A.S. Pre, Dual TT, Akai R2R Daughter (24)..... Heresys, HK 430, Sony CDC Step daughter (15).....Heresys, Marantz 2230, Sony CDC Enjoy!
  20. Thought it was really good, compaired to many of the past. But I like Petty and a 12 min. live, not bad. Enjoy!
  21. And as the game goes on. I now have to go w/ NY only cause their nfc. Farve is starting to show his age (it seems) on cold, windy, bitter days. Enjoy and the best to both team!
