    Horology...

    Now that I am a bit "overstocked" with straps for my HC 39, decided to add a couple for my Edox Skydiver Military Bronze. Also, after a year owning with no natural patina change with the bronze, I "forced" it with the saltwater and ammonia method and it aged several years in about an hour. Bill
  2. I have enjoyed my "bottom of the barrel" A-S1000 for several years and am still amazed how quiet, punchy, neutral, this integrated amp is. I could only imagine what the upper tier 2100, 2200, 3100, 3200, with their discrete circuitry would sound like with my Klipsch speakers. Bill
  3. Just about any Steely Dan especially the album Aja.
  4. @louis77, Welcome to the forum. Considering the fact that the AW650's are outside speakers designed for patio/porch music listening, I think your plan is just fine. Most patio systems are for background music and not for critical listening stereo imaging. Keep the music volume level confined to you and your guests enjoyment and not blasting for your neighborhood to rock out to and you should have no worries. Stick to what I said in bold print and you should be good. Bill

    Yes it would but I am a strap guy. I have one watch with a bracelet and quickly switched it out for a provided vintage leather strap.

    A couple of new sailcloth straps for my Longines HC 39. I think I am up to 13 straps now. Beats(cheaper) giving in to my obsession of buying every cool watch I come across. Bill
  7. If I did not have a pair and was local, they would be gone. Bill
  8. Very nice. Good luck with your sale. Bill
  9. I guess us two should be members of the Central Florida chapter of the RB-75 Fan Club. Bill

    Anyone else with some new/old additions to their collection? Bill
  11. I have a Yamaha A-S1000/CD-S1000 combo I might can part with.

    I am glad someone revised this thread. Been wearing some form of a watch for decades. Only in the last couple of years has it become a hobby(obsession).😉 A couple of my recent acquisitions. I think I have 10 straps for my Longines HC 39mm. Bill
  13. Neither have I. I have a rule that if a potential buyer, or seller for that matter, is not willing to exchange phone numbers and have real conversations about the potential transactions, they will not be first in line. For the most part, you get a pretty good feel of who you are dealing with. Of course this is for first time dealings. Three word messages or only price offer will be ignored. Also, I always offer my speakers/gear on this website first because of all the great transactions over the years with some really great high character folks(friends). Bill
  14. @Pansartax, Welcome to the forum. Though the seller may have misrepresented the age of the 64, intentionally or accidentally, don't be discouraged that it's 17 years old. If in good cosmetic shape and drivers look good and of course sounds as it should, buy it if the price is fair to you. My RC-64 is probably 16 years old and it looks and sounds like it did the day it was installed in my HT system. Good Luck, Bill
  15. Did you mean PM7000N? If so, what is it lacking? Foe that matter, what is the PM7000 lacking? Bill
  16. Hey, That was my idea. And I am sure others also. Let's make it happen. Bill
  17. For now, I say add an outboard amp, maybe a 3-channel to begin with, and use your AVR as a pre/pro. Your TX-NR3030 was the flagship or near flagship Onkyo AVR 8 or so years ago so it is pretty tricked out for the time. Even if you decide later to go preamp/processor, you already have an amp. Bill
  18. Congrats on the sale of the 105. Love mine. Thought about a few times of selling it and always ending up with a NO. Bill
  19. Thanks to @rivlinmbuying the H2s and my coworker buying two of my least worn watches, this baby should arrive on Tuesday. I am pretty pumped. Bill

    Totally agree. Public shaming/chastising, not a fan. Fuels the offenders ego a little too much. Work it out privately like adults with good character. Bill
  21. Sold "locally". @rivlinmMatthew, Enjoyed meeting you. Bill
