"Next Man Up".
The Colts went a long way with the injuries they had. It finally caught up with them. The Saints outplayed them and rightfully won the game.
"GO COLTS" is about much more than a "single" game. Its about a dynasty.

If I had a guess I would venture to say the 565 with the best phono stage and the 750 as best overall.

There are no Colts without Johnny U.
Thanx, Russ
Thats your opinion. The Colts reside in Indy. What that team did to the city of Baltimore has nothing to do with the player and class act that Peyton Manning brings to that team every year. He has done the Colts well and has also set the standards for perfection in the quarterback position very high.
Peyton has acknowledged time and time again how proud he is to be wearing the same colors as Jonny U.
In the end what Peyton has done on and off the field will put him along side Johnny U in the hall of fame and rightfully so.
So us Indy fans aren't taking the "bait" around here Russ.
Ever looked at the stats? 17 years for Johnny and 12 years so far for Peyton and really its very lop sided.
Career NFL statistics as of 1973 Pass attempts 5,186 Pass completions 2,830 Percentage 54.6 TD-INT 290-253 Passing yards 40,239 QB Rating 78.2 Career NFL statistics as of Week 17, 2009 Pass attempts 6,531 Pass completions 4,232 Percentage 64.8 TD-INT 366–181 Passing yards 50,128 QB Rating 95.2 -
That was a good read. Thanks.

I'm still trying to digest they way the Colts went down in flames last year. I had them winning it all. Don't you agree that the way the end of the reg. season played out set them up on a bad vibe for the playoffs? How weird that was. This year they need to play to win every friggin game!
Payton Manning = Class act
Agreed.
Everytime they decide to take it easy at the end of the season because they have clinched the playoffs so early trouble happens.
The Colts owner needs to let the players keep the throttle down. They should have and probably would have went undefeated and finally shut up those Dolphins.
Lets win them all Colts!

Lets win a superbowl this year!

Hilarious Mark.

Sure would of liked to see all three end up in Chicago but wow what a trio.
Add just a few fill-in players(which they already have a couple) who want to win a title and holy cow. Do I hear 4-peat or 5-peat or more.
Just go ahead and send the Heat to win a gold medal for us!

If you really want to "rock" it would have to be a Crown K series or a QSC PLX series amplifier.
-
This reminds me of the comedy club!
-
Chorus II's are the same way. With my Crown K2 running full tilt my 15 inch woofers barely move.
-
It might help if rather than thinking of it as a volume control, you think of it as an attenuator. In this model, turned all the way up is really zero, and decreasing the strength of the output signal is the only capability the control has.

BTW O/T, Stormin' my wife just found my Maxell Blown Away poster yesterday. It had been lost since just days after I received it on the last give away a few years back. Now to get a frame job.
Cool. It's definitely a classic and worthy of a nice frame![Y]

Oppo needs to be left at full volume. Thats what they relayed to me years ago.

I was the other person involved. This was a subject that I know nothing about but was reading and hoping to learn something. While reading the post I felt as though the other person was disrespecting what I consider to be senior members whom I have alot of respect for and pay great attention to thier advice ! I posted something about all the post in such a short time and the reply I got didnt set very well with me. I answered with my fingers before my brain had time to think about it. I have a very bad habit of standing up for others without being asked. Well, the fight was on and one thing led to another. I have now learned to keep my fingers on my own business. It was never about the topic as posted. Thanks to Amy for reinstating me as I have alot more to learn.

Welcome back fellow Chorus II fanatic.[Y]

I'd think it would be hard to get tired of winning championships.
Yeah, someone needs to explain that philosophy to the city of Chicago.
-
Speakers need more than just brute force to make the bass sound right, they need to be in a room appropriate for thier size. The room affects the sound to a great degree...something that amps alone do not overcome. Speaker placement....
Absolutley. Also controlling a woofer in a well designed speaker sure has its payoffs.
I couldn't get my Cornwalls to tighten up even setting them outside. [N]
-
You must be confusing the Chorus II with the Chorus I or Cornwall.
Not confusing anything. Forte's work better and sound tighter in a smaller room than chorus (or cornwall) do. The bigger Klipsch need more room to breathe, and not to boom.
Well I wasn't assuming that we were listening to our Klipsch speakers in a closet.
And If I did put the Chorus II in the closet with the death grip the Crown K2 has over the woofers I would probably just hurt myself.
To the OP if I was only going to use 45 watts I would choose 45 high quality tube watts and call it a day. Maybe toss in a sub.
-
The Forte II do have tighter bass than the chorus, while getting just about the same depth. In fact, for a medium room, the forte's sound better across the board because they match acoustics. The chorus in the same setting is a bit flabby.
You must be confusing the Chorus II with the Chorus I or Cornwall.
Theres no flab in a Chorus II. Chorus II has a very lean bass which some folks consider it to be bass shy. But add some watts and she lights right up.
Actually with the Forte II dropping to 32 hz it has a lower perceived bass but actually I found it to be a tad loose compared to the Chorus II. Another reason I chose the Chorus II. Can't stand loose bass. Definitely a pet peeve with me.

I have the Forte II's and a Harman/Kardon 430, which is a 45 wpc amp. I can personally say that the bass with this setup is enough to cause structural damage. The sheer amount of power in this setup is absolutely disturbing, as is the amount of bass it produces, which is almost always on the border of excessive in my opinion. The Chorus are different speakers and should be treated as such. Many people like myself think the Fortes have better bass...a larger driver does not necessarily mean more perceived bass.
I've used the Harman Kardon 930 which is actually rated at 45wpc. I believe the little 430 is rated at 25wpc. To do structural damage so to speak you really need to move up to the big seperate amps. My Chorus II's see a clean 500 wpc and theres no problem with bass from the 15 inch woofers. When I demoed the Quartet, Forte II and Chorus II I found the sound just got bigger as you moved up the line. All of them are basically voiced the same.
I like a nice rock solid kick drum and the hard smack of a snare.

1. The identiplate reads: Forte II: 226393286 and 7, © 1986 klipsch & associates. Or was that the original year forte came out? I do not know how to decode the serial # to mfg year.
That would be Thursday August 14th, 1993 (226th day of 1993)
GO COLTS!

I follow that reasoning. But every lineman and defensive tackle wasn't on or didn't know the proper way to use STEROIDS as they do today.
When quarterbacks get hit today its from real animals.
I do say all of this with respect from both eras. They both had some great talents.
Johnny U was a great quarterback along with several others from years ago and there are some great ones of today.
GO COLTS!
