  1. BMW's made in the U.S., Harley parts made in Mexico, Kilpsch MAYBE China owned. Human sacrifice! Dogs and cats living together! Mass hysteria!
  2. I don't concider buying LP's an investment because I'm not a business or reselling, but I have been buying albums...again. Started out this time last year with my old collection from the 80's, 50 or so . I now have around 200+/-. Some are new, some from the "bay", others from local record shops,GW, antique stores. Buying from the "bay" is risky since you can't see it before hand to look it over, but I have had good luck for the most part. As far as places for new here are a few..... http://www.elusivedisc.com/default.asp http://store.acousticsounds.com/AcousticSounds http://www.musicdirect.com/
  3. This thread will help you. http://community.klipsch.com/forums/t/143547.aspx ______________________________________________________________ LMAO!!
  4. "1981--On February 26, thirteen Harley-Davidson senior executives sign a letter of intent to purchase H-D motor company from AMF. By mid-June, the buy back is official, and the phrase "the Eagle Soars Alone" becomes a rallying cry." "1984-- Harley Davidson unveils the 1340cc V2 Evolution engine on 5 models including the all- new Softail." http://www.harley-davidson.com/wcm/Content/Pages/H-D_History/history_1980s.jsp?locale=en_US Harley nearly died because of AMF. My mechanic lived in Milwaukee during these times and seen the effects of it first hand. No way, no how did AMF help H-D, they just kept it on "life support" till H-D (Willy) could regain control and head it in its proper path. Also the nick name "HOG" came from....... Beginning in 1920, a team of farm boys, including Ray Weishaar, who became known as the "hog boys," consistently won races. The group had a hog, or pig as their mascot. Following a win, they would put the pig (a real one) on the back of their Harley and take a victory lap. In 1983, the Motor Company formed a club for owners of its product taking advantage of the long-standing nickname by turning "hog" into the acronym H.O.G., for Harley Owners Group. Harley-Davidson attempted to trademark "hog", but lost a case against an independent Harley-Davidson specialist, The Hog Farm of West Seneca, NY, in 1999 when the appellate panel ruled that "hog" had become a generic term for large motorcycles and was therefore unprotectable as a trademark. On August 15, 2006, Harley Davidson Inc. had its NYSE ticker symbol changed from HDI to HOG. Now to Klipsch..... Don't let it go overseas!! This past summer my company(CASY) was in a raging battle with a Canadian hostile take over. Scarey times to say the least. America NEEDS to stay American owned....PERIOD!
  5. The maiden flight of the Bristol Brabazon?[ap]
  6. Hey... ill fitted briefs can change frequencies.[pi] Sorry ladies[]
  7. Isn't that kind of a personal preference kinda thing? If it works for you.....go for it.[Y]
  8. Find local stores! You will get, maybe not at the exact time you want it, very nice LP's at a MUCH lower cost. I have also been getting 180g albums, but be prepared to lay out some $$ for them. In th last 2 weeks I have picked up 2 Joe Walsh "So What, There goes the neighborhood", War "The world is a ghetto", Ringo Starr " Blast from your past", Humble pie "humble pie" Humble pie was the priciest at a whopping $9.00 and all in excellent shape including covers! The store even cleans them before sell on their Nitty Gritty. All told I spent about $45.00. I bought one 180g and spent more then that......
  9. I painted my kitchen walls eggshell white the other day. They used to be cream white. Boy, do my Tombstones taste so much better.[pi]
  10. Anyone hear about this story on national media!? http://www.tangle.com/view_video?viewkey=1eb7bdee8bf166a62585&utm_source=newsletter011110&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=weeklytopvideos
  11. Larry Wachowski is still a man. The co-director of the "Matrix" movies was rumored to have had a sex-change operation recently. Internet sites started buzzing recently that Larry was now called Lana. Someone even edited his Wikipedia entry to that effect. The Wachowski Brothers, they said, were about to become the Donny and Marie of filmmaking. I must say, returning from a two week trip to Africa, I found this news rather startling. Of course, Larry Wachowski — who’s reportedly into a lot of wild, tough stuff — has encouraged this kind of speculation among his fans and the press. He dates a dominatrix and publicizes it. He let his wife’s vague angry language in their divorce filing make it seem as though as he was on the verge of a huge announcement. Either he was becoming a woman or turning into a pygmy. [:|]
  12. Check out this site for a good place to check prices and possibly sell. The box's that is..LOL http://forums.timezone.com/index.php?t=threadt&frm_id=32
  13. Since Pioneer gave up making TV's, I guess they have sold thier "secrets" to Panasonic. Thats what I'm holding out for. Pioneer Kuro is/was the best Plasma by far!
  14. I see you are getting alot of rain. We have clear skies tonight for watching the show, but not for long at 9 degrees and dropping.
  15. Tonight will be just as good. During the next week, rates increase until a peak of 50-80 meteors per hour is attained on the night of December 13/14. The last Geminids are seen on December 18, when an observer might see a rate of one every hour or so. http://www.meteorshowersonline.com/geminids.html
  16. WOW! My granny has those all over her house. No wonder she always says "huh?' when I talk to her at 1500 wpc.
  17. "Maybe I'll update my picture and send you one in my pink panties. ( anonymous)"
  18. The Denon is for HT with a pair of Carver TFM-35's, and it does a GREAT job of 2 channel also. BUT, I have H/K 430..630 and 930 twin power amp's and a H/K A500 tube amp for vintage 2 channel and a pair of CF2's. You may want to do some research here and else where.... you will learn alot. Amature it is not......
  19. My first experience with Forte's was the same, only they were hooked up to Marantz. They sounded flat and lifeless. After all the reading I had done on Forte's/Klipsch, I knew it had to be the amp, I bought them anyway. After I got them home and hooked up to my Carver's they came to life in a BIG way. I bought a Denon AVR 3805 and they sound great! I now own 3 pair of Forte's []
  20. My gracious.....tempermental fella.
  21. THIS is the reason I have parts on the way to me right now to build this.[]
