  1. Thanks Islander. I am thinking the LS2's might actually be more up my alley. But then to purchase new one might consider Jubes.[^o)]
  2. Thanks Bruce. I proabably listen a little louder than you do lol.
  3. I personally think the photos are hilarious. Thanks for posting.
  4. Thanks tk49 and QH. Nice videos QH. So you think the balance could be off with the stock xovers due to the serial numbers?
  5. Thanks Russ and Kevin. I appreciate your comments and opinions.
  6. How important are consecutive serial numbers? What are your opinions of 1989's? What are your opinions on stock AL xovers? What are your opinions of black LaScalas? Probably 8 out of 10 in appearance an idea on value? Thanks in advance for your opinions.
  7. I am from the Warsaw area about 35 miles east of Fort Wayne. I have taken 30 across Ohio many times. It would be great to hear sometime. Thanks for the offer. Randy
  8. [Y] Let er rip Roger. May the real jammers step forward. I would love to hear it.
  9. Thats the review I was looking for. Cool and congrats.
  10. The obvious is clear between the 2. La Scala's have more mid, Chorus II has more low. That was the setup I had with the La Scala's as my mains with a sub. Obviously. But doesn't quite describe how that relates to the attack of a drum kit or the pitch definition of a bass guitar.
  11. Exactly. I think it should be everyones goal. I should state I do not watch movies through my 2 channel system. I am listening for the attack and feel of the snare and kick drums.
  12. I have used a Crown K2 with an earlier version Cornwall with no success. The K2 is 500wpc and has a damping factor: 10hz to 400hz >3000. The woofers would almost flutter at volume. "One of the reasons" I call the Cornwall a great jazz speaker and the KLF 30 and Chorus II's great rock and roll speakers. Some folks like big warm woolly bass and others like tight chest crunching bass. I prefer the later. I also prefer the same with subwoofers in 2 channel. When I am jamming I am not interested in a "home theater like" foot massage I want a chest massage. As always just my 2 cents.
  13. Congrats. I am anxious to hear comparisons with your Chorus II's.
  14. Tight? If you wanted tight you bought the wrong speaker. Some folks around here call the ole Cornwall a rumble box and I am one of them. It has alot of great characteristics but tight bass with good pitch definition describes a Chorus II not a Cornwall. IMHO.
  15. I have ran an Audible Illusions L1 for years. I paired it with a McCormack DNA1 rev B+ which everyone claims is the cats meow. To these head banging ears I enjoyed the Audible Illusions paired with the Aragon 4004 MKII much better. I also found the combo to sound much better paired with VMPS over Klipsch. I like the Aragon a little better than the Acurus stuff if your going to rock out because it has a bit of a warmer signature. I agree, buying used can save a boat load of money and some of the gems of years past still sound fantastic. I am still sold on the QSC PLX series and the Crown K series of pro amps. But I like to crack plaster so my needs differ from many. I still say if all I ever listened to was jazz I would only want a pair of Cornwalls paired with a nice tube amp.
  16. Have had the QSC 2402 and the Crown K2 you can hardly distinguish the two. I prefer the K2 for the slightly recessed mids. If anything I find it a tad warmer than the QSC but ever so slightly. I actually preferred the lower frequencies of the QSC. But I use a couple of subs to handle that.
  17. I enjoy a little warmer sound myself. Some call it extended highs and detailed but I call it bright. Adcom comes to mind.
  18. I use a Crown K2 and you could do alot worse. I've used Aragon, Adcom, McCormick, Marantz, Yamaha, QSC and tons of other solid state receivers and amplifiers. Save some money and give pro audio a listen. If you don't like it flip it because someone else will.

    I agree. I like Patricia Barber's "Modern Cool" album.
  20. Well, unless you weren't there and they wanted to break-in and steal whatever you are insinuating you have. I carry the one I use and as far as stealing the others they better have some plastic explosives. It is also best to keep politics and religion out of this forum. It seems to always pop its ugly head by a select few. I didn't bring up politics or religion and what the heck does plastic explosives have to do with anything. Plastic explosives is what it would take to get to the guns that you are insinuating that someone could just walk in and steal.
  21. You are going backwards imho. Sometimes it becomes more about the bargain. But best wishes and good luck on the road you're traveling.
