    I would really like to see an updated CF-4. I would buy a pair of those long before a Chorus 3, Cornwall 4.  Even better a CF-5 with duel 15's and k-691 would be incredible and sell like hotcakes.

     

    I have 2 pairs of Crites Cornscala's and they are nice, I don't think a Cornwall 4 or Chorus 3 could beat them but an updated  CF-4 or duel 15's probably could.

    Interesting thought. I am not familiar with CF line.

    I am looking forward to see what is next.

    I've just acquired a pair of Quartets and a pair of Fortes and have been reading about cabinet cleaning, maintenance, etc.  These don't need to be refinished but I just want to clean them up and take care of them.  Is it OK to use Old English lemon oil on them to preserve them or is there a better product?

    Most use Watco rejuvenating oil ....I'm not saying Old English lemon oil won't work ....never tried it

    Police Inquiry

    I have great respect for the police...When I was growing up my father was a part time village cop.

    Only problem I ever had was......many years ago while driving home at 1:00 am getting pulled over and the officer asked if I was drinking and I said only coffee. Then I was asked for my license. Then I was asked what I was doing in his town at 1:00 am when I lived some where else....My answer was "What is this Russia"....wrong question.

    Guess what ....now I live in that town....go figure.

    Good ones. "Band of Brothers" gets me a bit too.

    That series really makes me feel that was truly our greatest generation.

    I realize nowadays we have many differences......but back then everyone went (over there) and truly allowed the rest of the world to see how great we are.

    Arash,

       That looks fantastic. It is really coming together.

    If you don't mind me asking. What method do you plan on using for wire tension.....weight /regulated cylinder/felt drag system?

    I am really looking forward to seeing it finished.

    Please keep the pics coming.

    Windows 10 Creators Update - Good or Bad?

    Microsoft now tracks virtually everything you do via Windows 10.  You have two choices, you can have generic ads shown to you or you can choose targeted ads, but you can't opt out. In addition when Win10 Creators came up the first time it bragged that Cortana can "save you money" by suggesting where you can buy products.

     

    I don't like being tracked, but it's the way of the internet these days.  What else can you do?

    Yes .....they track everything.........I always wondered why Windows 10 upgrade was free....now I know why. It may take be less taxing to your PC . But I would never call it an upgrade to Windows 7. Only after installing Classic Shell...is it to me even tolerable.
