Warm here....should take the Bubble for a top down spin. Experimenting on car window cleaning recently. First alcohol and water. Next vinegar and distilled water. Third 2 drops of Dawn and distilled water. Microfiber cloth with each. Happiest with #3 but now I read they make a waffle microfiber cloth that's better. Saw a guy on youtube use a clay bar on the windows so I may try that as I already have a few😑
Want to play with my new preamp but it resides at my house and I don't. The house share person stays up till two and sleeps till 11am😙 Well at least I can look at a photo of it........
Bon ami works great on stubborn glass stains.
Should not scratch glass but just in case test in a inconspicuous area.

Tried to post a link but I don't have hours to wait for the forum to respond.
Google PassMark benchmarks, lots of good information there.

Using a Wright Preamp and Phono Preamp. I am currently building a 112A triode preamp.
I'd like to be able to build stuff, body will no longer allow me to do so. Sounds like a good time.

I was looking for a good Ted Nugent Dog eat dog video last post but all were kinda sad. Saw Aerosmith open for Ted in 86 I believe, luckily Ted saved the show after Aerosmith's less than stellar opening performance.

I use a refreshed Marantz 7T, love its flexibility and great sound. depending on your budget, the rest of your system and deasired feature set, you might consider a vintage piece. more info helps people give you better advice. T
Already tried the used route. Never again after my experience.
Probably going with the Parasound P6, need to save a bit more$$$

I had CT-125's. They were pretty flat and worked well in a Heresy as a drop in. But when I put them in LaScalas, I had to drop the K55/K400 by another 3 db and cut the Cap value in half to compensate. Did this by ear, long before I became such a Curving Freak as I am now. 20 years goes by fast in this hobby.
Dropped mine 2. Besides the poor fit and extra work the 125's are decent to my ears and measurements.

Great news. Music reruns are far better than television reruns.

I was wondering which of the K43 or the k33 are used in the KPT-MCM series , or is it none of the above and klipsch now use the K-45 The cinema brochure does not state which woofer model is used by klipsch for the KPT-1515-LF -
As far as the new K33E Part #121501. it is the current replacement for k33 round or square magnet and the K43 -
Highly doubt a pair of K33 could withstand 90+ Volts.

So did you hear a difference in sound?
These cabinets were stripped when I got them.
Big ridge or dip will make a difference no doubt.

Did a bit of massage work installing mine too.
File and sandpaper over wood scrap.

would it be an improvement if I file and adjust the cutout in the wood gently?
Not going to hurt.

I had no problem on my '89 LS, the y fit just fine. My older son had bought the APT50 and the 150 horn for a project of his own, but gifted them to me. That's why I have those in the baffles on top. I sold the original ones I had purchased from Bob C., and the K77s.
I kept a set of square magnet K77's.
Fried but clean.

now I understand why @Marvel mounted the tweeter on top of his cabinet ---the space is quite tight in that area ,---and you have to take out the K400 then route a rounded section of the wood to clear the top pf the magnet -easier to simply fit them on a bracket on top of the speakers -
-I have 2 CT125's but I've never tried to fit in my LSI speakers ( I also have about 6 or 8 APT50's older versions with the Eminence horn --- brand new , I love these tweeter's sound , very simple upgrades to EV speakers )
I was worried about burning the finish.
The Squawker has to be removed, it is tight in there.

Nothing to be sorry about. People who don't listen won't learn and good comments are always welcome.

If I went to town they would probably fit but I remember at least 2 plys worth but I quit thinking I'll worry about it later and made a little shim instead.

Same. Value amounts went up right with it.

I prefer spray method for looks and ease. Tape off what you don't want covered.
