  1. I picked up a set of KG 2.5's to refinish to match the 5.5's good price .....good little project. George
  2. I just used Bobs, kit. I wouldn't call your post rambling....More like inspiration....Your explanation was very precise... Thanks again George
  3. One of my favorite set of Klipsch speakers was a set of KG 5.5's my wife bought me when we bought our first house. After years of use I sold them to get into the new Reference line ..... I always wish I never sold them..... well several pair of reference and then extended heritage pairs later .....I decided a nice project would be to do a pair of KG 5.5's I pretty much followed Mazb4z's method with one acceptation...I did not add braces to the cabinet .......The pair I bought locally came in light oak....here was a definite flaw in the stain of the veneer....so I decided to make a change and redo the cabinet color ...I really like how they look as well as sound....Thank to Mazb4z and of course Bob Crites.....A great addition to my collection. George
  4. Don't know it's the best......plan on using to fill my KG 5.5s before re assembly....Menards sells it for 3.99 a roll George
  5. That kind of says it all........just saying George
  6. To all, First let say to Jimbo ...I apologize for not following protocol . The last person I would want to offend or piss off is you. I have enormous respect for you. And have always listened to what you have to say. When I met you years ago.... at a get together.... you came in with a tube amp a Dragonfly DAC and a cell phone...and it blew me away. Before that day I had no interest in anything 2 channel...In a way I have you to thank for me spending all that money and starting my collection. There comes a time in every ones life when none of this really matters anymore or takes a back priority. A week or so ago I had the pleasure of meeting someone from this community and selling him (what I and my friends refer to as my children) (2 wonderful pairs)...something that I put a lot of time and effort in bringing back to beautiful condition. If you guys think I want to sell these things..... think again.... I am doing it now because my life has taken a major change. I have known you guys for 10 years....it's been a great pleasure....I am not going anywhere The only 2 things left are the: PSA V-1800 sub $ 600.00 Sunfire TGA 7201 $ 800.00 Turntables are off the table....got other offers The Anthem ...I think is going to go to SemperFiAG08 if he is still interested ...and yes it is as good as new Later
  7. Jimbo I didn't mean to offend you or anybody else.... I'll just pull the post..... Sorry George
  8. Don't mind at all.....you stated you were interested in one of the Sansui's and you wanted me to meet you half way between here and and South Bend....The person I sold them to wanted both units and was willing to meet me at a p!ace 40 minutes from my location. You later came back and said you would take both. I took the local sale of both units. This is why I don't use garage sale much... George
  9. Hey sorry if it seems like I'm taking so long to get back to anybody. It was a hectic flight home last night. And I'm doing a little driving today. I'll get answers as soon as I can. George
  10. Both Sansui's are sold George,
  11. Me...... Chris....now owns them.....was there other equipment involved......yes...yes and yes. I leave the details up to Chris to post..... George
  12. Sorry for your loss. George
  13. No the tops really only cost me thirty bucks a piece.
  14. Yeah.....I don't think Saturday Audio Exchange...was up to the task in anything they did....They also did the GoldenEar /PrimaLuna room. Both were not impressive. George
  15. Wow.....I would consider selling one of my pairs for that...... consider George
  16. They had Forte III's and Heresy III's....They did not play the Heresy's. Room 1414 George
  17. Well Klipsch speakers were finally demonstrated at Axpona....Saturday Audio Exchange set up I believe 3 rooms. The Klipsch room was unimpressive......The Forte III's were placed too close to the back walls.....The music selection was poor. They had them paired with a McIntosh hybrid tube amp....If it sounds like I'm making excuses....maybe I am....I really wanted to like them....but just didn't.... My Chorus II's definitely sound better.....I just got to say George
  18. My buddy uses a Dialogue Premium integrated amp with his Chorus IIs.....He uses a Vincent phono preamp. Amazing sound.....great investment George
