  1. Got a College Degree while still 19,

    owned a pair of heresy's,cornwalls,chorus and LA-scalas before i turned 20.

    Was the sixth fastest swimmer in Canada at age 12 and 14 (for age group).

    Won over 70 Medals at various Swimming competitions.

    At 19 I started my own company.

    To come:

    Next year I bike accross Canada (8000km).

    PhD at 28

    Own a pair of Klipschorns?

  2. Stacking subs that go down in "quality", however unnoticable it may be, is stupid (to some extent).

    Dont waste your money and buy a dd-15 or dd-12,

    Rather, save it up and buy another dd18 to either stack or put on the opposite side of the room as your present dd18.

    Why compromise for looks or potential salivation of the viewer? A pyramid style subwoofer is only a result of an obssessive disorder in the brain, known as ear-a-tosis. It doesnt make any sense, sonically or economically. Any audiophile, with even the smallest bit of class will tell you the same.

    When you have the coin, buy another dd18.

    By the way - I love the dd-18 SBW, Congratulations.

  3. He just got it replaced with a B&K...upgrading from his old HK.

    I can see where you are at though, I used a harmon kardon receiver and was thoroughly disappointed in its performance with my klipsch speakers (hk635). It just didnt sound as good as it does with other bands usch as Rotel, Yamaha and Onkyo. I sold the hk in less than a month I was so disappointed.

    There is/was definately something missing on HK units that doesnt seem to go perfectly well with Klipsch.

    For all you who beg to differ, it must be just personal preferences!

  4. Keep the 63's

    buy the rc-64

    then buy rf83's down the line and put the 63's in the back.

    Klipsch...for some reason, did not come up with a sorround speaker that incorporates the new tweeter...which is a HUGE shame.

    I think having 83 64 83 + 63's sorround, would beat the pants off anything else klipsch is offering in the new REFIV lineup.

  5. All I am trying to say, regardless of what examples or attitudes I presented is that you didnt have a right to raise suspicion about a guy who is perfectly legitimate in his offering.

    Unfortunately most of us dont have friends who can lecture for hours about when and how to use Maple instead of Birch

    and most of us do not know the difference between Birch and Oak and BIMaple etc... .

    Prima Facie, a maple rf7 can be called birch, without any wrongdoing to it. It was a simple discription. It wasnt fair to the seller and if you just want posts, go post in the prettiest girl in the world thread or go talk IB/custom subs in the powered subwoofer section.

    Okay Jay, because you are the expert on wood...I randomly got a picture and I know what wood color it is, now you tell me what wood color it is.

  6. I admit they are different trees but somehow I dont think the seller was referring to the actual tree but more to the commonly used expression:

    I have birch flooring

    I have oak flooring

    I have maple speakers.

    Its linguo, which you seem to know very little about. It really bothers me that you accuse someone so needlessly and pointlessly. If you cared about the integrity of the seller and those of who could potentially be burned by him, you would have emailed him REQUESTING pictures (he said he would send pictures upon request).

    You care neither about us, nor about him.
