  1. Both kg2s and kg1s seem to have that Klipsch Family sound...good luck with your search Bill
  2. sorry to read this...fond memories talking Klipschorns and classical music with him on this Forum as well as at some of the Pilgrimages...RIP Larry Bill
  3. Very nice. I believe the L in your serial number means 1973. WR might mean Walnut Raw for the original finish. I believe value might be $4-600.00 but I haven’t kept up in selling prices (not asking prices cuz those are crazier) if recent times good luck Bill
  4. less than 2 weeks from drop off at FedEx to delivery back to my house...my wallet is about $150 lighter but I don't think I could find a BluRay player as nice as my Oppo BDP-83 for that...tip of the cap to Oppo Bill
  5. yes...I have 2 OPPO BDP-83s...both about the same age but one is going back to CA for the second time in 6 and a half years but admittedly it was my fault pulling on that drawer... Bill
  6. thanks...that would have worked had I not pulled the drawer out over the plastic gearing...tech support said for my issue the BDP-83 must come in for the repair... Bill
  7. well I sent an email (on a Sunday) to the service email address listed for Oppo...I fully expected to get a non deliverable or similar response since I thought Oppo was out of the USA entirely (at least for DVD/Blu-Ray)...to my surprise I received a response and information to send my Oppo back for service...I'll have to pay the flat rate repair service ($99) but they should be able to get my BDP-83 up and running again... I appreciate the responses here too as I am sure I'll be wanting something newer soon enough but the repair will buy me some time yet... Bill
  8. any recommendations for a Blu-Ray player that is at the lower price point but still quality???...I'd like it to have connections so I can play the newest DTS and Dolby formats... I haven't bought a Blu-Ray player since I purchased my Oppo BDP-83 and Friday I ham handed the front drawer...I plan to find some repair place to fix what I did to the front drawer (nothing plastic broken but I forced the drawer open over the plastic gears and can't seem to get it back to normal with my skill set ... thanks for any input you care to share... Bill
  9. thanks so much for this...I had never heard that version before... Bill
  10. is the Blu-Ray worth the uncharge from regular CD???... Bill
  11. I bought a MacBook Pro from Thaddeus Smith on this Forum...nice price...still runs fine...and I've used it not only to listen to music before but also to respond to threads on this Forum... Good luck with your sale...trusted seller Bill
  12. ...and some if not all Outlaw Audio subs are developed/based on Hsu designs...good luck with your choice Bill
  13. sorry to read this...Godspeed... Bill
  14. it seemed to me at times that the MD who sold and serviced his equipment was different than the MD that posted and argued on this Forum... Bill
  15. gotta love auto correct...because our Robot overlords know more than we do... Bill
  16. sometimes things go off half fast... Bill
  17. well the HBR means Heresy Birch Raw and that peeling stuff isn't Birch by the looks of it...I'd say poorly veneered by someone...perhpas the speakers look much better underneath that peeling stuff...nice little project for someone... Bill
  18. EICO HF81...restored by NOSValves/Craig from this Forum...sounds wonderful Bill
  19. I certainly couldn't afford most any of those receivers but I do remember those times and going to Pacific Stereo, Musicraft, HiFi Hutch and the like around ChicagoLand to see and hear some of these...I enjoyed the video and walk down memory lane...thanks Bill
  20. ...and I need to add as of a few hours ago a TA-3A as well...😎 Bill
  21. although not as old as some here I think any of the Nakamichi SR or TA series that are of the Nelson Pass STASIS variety (TA-1 need not apply) sound wonderful with Klipsch...I have tried my TA-2A as well as an older and less powerful SR-2A with kg2s, Heresies, Quartet, Chorus ll, RB-5s and probably others...very nice indeed... Bill
  22. this took the wind right out of me...Rest In Peace and thanks so much for the talks and all the speakers you made that much more enjoyable for me and my friends... Thoughts and Prayers for your Family...Godspeed Bob Bill
  23. I didn't want to start a new thread on this since this one exists albeit a bit old now...so...is anyone still enjoying their Panasonic SA-XR55 digital with Klipsch for 2 channel??? I had to return a Nakamichi TA-2A that I borrowed and at least for the time being I placed this in a system with a Cambridge Audio Azur 640C V2 with both Diana Krall and Norah Jones singing sweetly but separately (ladies please! ) through Bob and Michael Crites updated Klipsch Quartets... I haven't listened to this combo in quite some time for 2 channel sound...very nice and very clean... I'd like to hear back from those that still enjoy this or have moved on and to what...share if you care to... Thanks, Bill
  24. ...because I like the combo of RB-5 lls and RC-3 II in that setting so much...in case I hadn't made that clear 🤪 Bill
