  1. Wrong again! Still here! I simply dont feel the need to have to prove myself on here. Doesnt matter to me if anyone believes me or not. Actually, I'm sure BobG could look into their shipping department and find out if a pair of LaScallas shipped recently. Bob, what do you say?
  2. Kevin S, You have to love these web sites. Everyone seems to know everything but generally dont know anything. I think it is absolutely hilarious that people have responded to my posts the way they have - especially when they dont know crap. Before you speculate on how YOU think I may have gotten my speakers, you should learn to ask the proper questions before making dumb comments. The speakers I got were just made because the dealer gave me status updates with updates from within Klipsch saying so. The wood still has fresh saw dust on them!!! As for my attitude, you better believe it sours when people start flapping at the gums about things they know nothing about - like you. I was told for the longest time that the LaScallas were not in production and that my Krell/Klipsch combination would be disappointing! Perhaps you have the "lay down" attitude when people spout off but I dont. I call it like it is and respond accordingly. The facts are - I got my NEW LaScallas and my stereo sounds INCREDIBLE!!! So do me a favor, crawl into your hole and stay there. By the way - Im sure BobG doesn't need someone to run to his defense. If you disagree with something I said then post your opinion but dont' be a "do-gooder" and run to someones defense. THats part of the problem on here..

  3. All, Guess what...? I just got my brand new LaScallas... You know... The ones that the moderators said I would not get because they weren't in production??? BobG... Before you start telling people that they "definately" wont be getting stuff... You better get a clue. Brand new in the box - still sealed from Klipsch. ------------------ This message has been edited by wired1 on 09-20-2001 at 07:55 AM
  4. Mike, The fact that I said that it sounds terrible is a GENERAL opinion that "MAY" be inferred to individuals WITHOUT individual direction. What that guy said to me was that "I" would be disappointed. Its quite obvious that you are too stupid to know the difference and proved it by opening your big mouth... Your a joke... reporting me to the moderators.... LOL... GET A LIFE, DUDE!!!! ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  5. The EAR, YOur 100% right on what you said. And as I have just said, most people work hard and spend a lot of $ on their equipment. I now that Krell amp you got and it is absolutely incredible. As for the new LaScallas... I just spoke to my dealer and it was confirmed that it was shipped from the dealer and it is now in their warehouse. He told me the speakers would be there on Monday or Tuesday by the latest. I'll let you know.... ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  6. Colin, It takes a man to say what you have said and I appreciate it. Perhaps you used the wrong terminology but people should never trash other peoples equipment. Especially because they probably put a lot of hard work and money into getting it. ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  7. Mike, wired1, OK...lets reverse the tables. Here's something you said just last week and I quote: quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I personally think that the whole KLF line sounds "tinny". I tried them out at a local dealer with different amps, CD players and receivers and thought they sounded TERRIBLE! They are WAY to "tinny" and not enough deep end. The only Klipsch line I would ever consider buying is either the HEritage line or the Promedias - they rock! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- By saying this you have completely crapped on every person who bought a Legend speaker. Except I didn't see anybody criticize you for saying it. Why? Because it was YOUR opinion! Nothing more and nothing less. It wasn't personal and nor was his statement to you. BTW, there's really no need to swear on this Forum either... Mike Dude, YOu are WAY off base... Just because I said they KLF line sounds "tinny" is VERY different than me telling someone that they are going to be disappointed with their equipment!!! Your simply an idiot and you should stay out of peoples arguments - even if they are public. You obviously don't know **** for making such a BAD comparison!!! ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  8. Mike, I could care less. You dont go knocking on peoples **** when it is brand new and they put a lot into it. Thats bullshit. Dude, it doesnt matter to me WHAT people think of me on here... Not at the slightest. However, I hate ********s who think they know everything and need to make the comments on other peoples equipment. THeir is an old saying that applies here: Smile and the world smiles with you. Cry and you cry alone! I dont want to hear his BS! ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  9. JJT, I have no intention of searching through the posts and could care less about who Colin is or how he is "respected" by you. I dont need some nimrod telling me, especially after I bought all my equipment, that I wont be satisfied with it in the long run. Perhaps you learn to respect people on web sites but I could give a rats *** what negative comments people have to give. By the way... Everything I got is top notch and purchased for stereo. Why the hell will I not be happy in the long run and very happy in the short run??? ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  10. ALL--- If people are going to post all their stereo/home theater equipment fine... DON'T THROW IN DUMB **** LIKE PLAYSTATIONS AND LAPTOP COMPUTERS! If I felt the need to throw in the rest of the electronics in my home, the price would probably go up another $15 to $20k. All the stuff I just listed was for my new stereo - not every piece of electonics I own! ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  11. TheEAR, Thanx for the support!!! That guy has absolutely no idea what he is talking about! I will be getting my speakers in a couple of days so I'll let everyone, including COlin, how it sounds... ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  12. Colin, Why in the world would you ever think that I will be unhappy with the Krell/Klipsch combination in the long run?????? What does the hell does that mean??!?!?!? ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  13. All, Since I got my stereo last year and am still waiting for my LaScallas (Im getting them new within 5 days - more on this later or e-mail me), I dropped about $10k. This is what I will have: Krell KAV-250P Krell KAV-250A Sony DVP-S7700 (CD only) Monster HTS5000 Line Conditioner Monster X200i-X XLR interconnects Monster 1.2S Speaker Cable LaScallas (2001 model!) Bell O'getti stand Is $10K typical and tell me what you think?!?!?! ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net This message has been edited by wired1 on 09-11-2001 at 09:19 PM
  14. For simplicity..... This is how you figure impedance in a parallel circuitregarding speaker load): (R1*R2)/(R1+R2) ...And for Series... R1+R2 You just have to make sure your amp can handle a low load (2 or 1 ohms) otherwise you can blow it(Its the same as shorting the amp). If you check out the Krell Master Reference Amp, it can put out 16,000 watts at 1 ohm!!!! THATS AN AMP!!! ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net This message has been edited by wired1 on 09-06-2001 at 04:37 PM
  15. I personally think that the whole KLF line sounds "tinny". I tried them out at a local dealer with different amps, CD players and receivers and thought they sounded TERRIBLE! They are WAY to "tinny" and not enough deep end. The only Klipsch line I would ever consider buying is either the HEritage line or the Promedias - they rock! ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  16. This is a Promedia question...... I have last years model of the Promedias (4 satellites and a sub with no power button) and was looking to hook it up to my TV. I have a Sony 32" XBR and it has tons of inputsand outputs. Is this possible? If so, how? Thanks! ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  17. I have used commercial amps before because I am a bass player. It really comes down to how much money you want to spend vs. quality. Crown makes awesome amps (VERY POWERFUL!!) but may not offer the clarity or detail as high end home stereo amps do. Just my $.02... ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  18. "E", First of all, are you looking to build a home theater or home stereo? Secondly, $1000 isn't going to realy get you much. For $1000, your going to have to go to Best Buy or Circuit City and find something there... Sorry, but $1000 won't even get you stared while browsing a site like this... ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  19. I actually think that the harshness you hear is signature to the KLF line. I went to my dealership and listened to them and found the same quality in all of them. I even tried listening with different amps and they still had the same sound. I sure hope I'm wrong but I think you may have to live with it... Paul ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  20. BobG, Well, my dealer called me again today and confirmed that my speakers are being built and that the shipment date is within 2 weeks. I will certainly have a lot to say to this web site if they DO get delivered and will have the same talk with my dealer if they DONT get delivered. You'll definately be hearing from me... 8/24/01 ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  21. BobG, Again I spoke with my dealer and he assured me that production would be commencing soon. Like I said, either someone is giving me BS or someone has no idea what they are talking about...? In any case, the dealer says that I'll get my speakers around 1 month from now...? ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  22. Im starting to believe that this is the Klipsch "experience.." ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  23. All, To those that have been following my posts and thought me nuts and impatient.... I spoke with my dealer and told him all about this web site and all the information that is spread here. He basically told me it is all garbage and no one knows what their talking about. He told me that he spoke to his (Klipsch) dealer and they told him they are ramping up production and I'll have my speakers by the end of August or, by latest, the first or second week in September. I was up front about my skepticism and he told me that he just got off the phone with the dealer and she verified everything with him. Now, I am not sure who is giving me the BS but I'll let you all know if and when I get my speakers... I'll keep you posted.... ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
  24. The saga continues.... I called the dealership and spoke to yet another salesman. I explained my dilemma and all the posts from this web site. He basically told me that the ETA on my order comes directly from the manufacturer and is not made up. It does make sense, because I know for a fact that my order never had an ETA on it and now it does...? In any case, the dealer insisted that the ETA comes directly from the manufacturer and not simply made up. Ill let you all know what happens... I may just get the speakers on Sept 7 or I may jest get a headache...? ------------------ wired1@ameritech.net
