Welcome to the Forum!
@pmsummer, they are still linking to your post, now spanning over two decades.
That's scary, on a number of levels!

First I've heard of it.

I flipped a coin today as to which 'potentially grossly disappointing or outright thrilling' movie to see today: FORD V FERRARI or MIDWAY.
MIDWAY won, and I wasn't disappointed (the cringe I knew was going to be there was... CGI and Harrelson as Nimitz). As historically accurate as any WWII movie will be.
FvF will be seen next week. Bale looks a great Ken Miles... Shelby should have been played by Matthew McConaughey.

Glad you found a buyer.
I have a pair in reserve for when I am moved into a 'home' with no room for the K-Horns. Really nice speakers.

Dear Mr. Klipsch,
Late to the party, as I've been too busy listening to amazingly reproduced music through your premier design.
I cannot thank you enough.
Your birthday has made an awful lot of folks VERY happy!- 4

Take 'em back to unfinished, and then poly seal 'em.
Beautiful!...and 'Congratulations'!

Ad says " original wood finish " just wanted to clarify for interested parties.
It does look pretty good, probably paid more than the asking price for the veneer work itself.
Looks like a pawn shop. Hard to tell. Definitely decorator/industrials.

BTW: No association, but I'm only an hour away from them. Willing to inspect for a serious prospect.

Yep, but it looks like a nice job.

Since we moved a few years ago, my 1977 Cornwalls have been in storage. Made a sweet (for him) package deal with my son-in-law. Cornwalls and a Marantz 2325. Looking good!
These replace a pair of Heresy HIPs (and an Onkyo home theater receiver) he has been using for years.- 1

- Offset firebox, brick-lined smoker.
- Oak w/some hickory.
- Salt and pepper rub (sometimes with a pinch of cayenne).
- Fat side up.
- 185-220F.
- 30 minutes per pound (approximately).
- One can of beer per hour for heat control (used internally).
If you are coming to Central Texas anytime, these are the places I highly recommend you visit. I'm big on tradition, not so big on neu-b-que.
- Snow's in Lexington
- Louis Mueller's in Taylor
- Black's/Kreuz Market/Smitty's in Lockhart
- Prause's Market in La Grange
- City Market in Giddings
- Luling City Market in Luling
- Cooper's in Mason (the original Cooper's)
- The Spread in Brady (smoked cabrito, with quail poppers as an appetizer)
Those are all great. I would add that one of the Muller's has a place in Austin that is rated No. 2 on a lot of lists. I prefer Smitty's but if you his Lockhart you might as well go to em all.
I would put those all at a 9 or a 10. There is ine in Belton that is as good as any of those.
But Franklin is in his own league. I never thought any BBQ was going to be worth a 3 hour wait, boy was I wrong.
In Belton, it's Miller's Smokehouse, which used to do taxidermy and bbq.
I must have hit Franklin's on an off day. Very good and on par with the best, but ultimately I didn't find it worth the wait. I've never gone back.

Things have been slowly getting worse here at Casa Verano regarding my wife's 92 year old mother who lives with us under our care. As a result, I will be unable to attend the festivities in Hope this year.
Y'all have some fun, OK?
Until next time,

Requiescat in pace, our friend BOXX, leading the way as usual. Condolences to/for his wife, children and friends. Thank you Gary for making sure I knew about this, and to Dennie who also tried to let me know.
Till we meet face to face Kevin, Vaya con Dios.- 1

Hello Klipsch Community,
My apologies if this is in the wrong forum, please move if I made a mistake.
I am writing with a heavy heart to this forum and community. My father, "BOXX" passed away last night. It was sudden and my family is still in shock. He was sitting at the kitchen bar in his house after we watched the Cowboy game together and had a heart attack. He went very peacefully. My mother and I did everything we could to help him. The only comfort is that it was quick and painless.
It hurts me deeply. as my father was my best friend. He was always on this forum and I needed to share the news with this community.
I realize it is an "internet community," however, he enjoyed this forum very much. As he passed away last night, he was listening to music (a new play list), surfing the forum (I checked and it was about Pink Floyd: one of my cherished bands, because of my fathers influence to me), and looking on amazon prime for yet another album. He was doing what he loved in retirement, listening to music...always too loudly...and always "just one more song"...much to mother's tolerance.
He was married to my mother for over 35 years, and have both been role models for me.
I hope that this news reaches his friends on this community, and please contact me if you have any questions. I have his account open on his laptop, and will check periodically.
With a wounded heart, respectfully his son,
Alex
Alex, I completely missed this. I am so sorry for your family's loss. I have no doubt that you dad "rests in Light Eternal" now, and stands as part of the "great cloud of witnesses". I never met him, but we shared some experiences and private conversations. Meeting him was on my bucket list (I always honk when I drive through Ovilla). Now I shall have to put that meeting off for another, more glorious day.
Had I known before now, I would have made the trip to Dallas for his memorial. You and your mother are in my prayers (as you are in your dad's ongoing prayers).
In God's Great Peace,
P.M. Summer
