  1. Guys this is for anyone but more so for members in the Arkansas area. I hope the sale will be local to avoid shipping cost and the possibility of damage. This a favor for a great friend who has decided to change directions. This gear is at my house so additional pictures will be sent quickly and other info can be collected PDQ. Fluance SX-HTB full 5 channel system color is a light cherry. I have hooked this up to an AVR, there are a couple surprising things to this budget friendly system. 1. (Small footprint) This system could be setup in a bedroom or for someone that is just starting out, that doesn't want to start out throwing money in a fire that won’t go out. 2. (Sound) Sound is great I really like the soft dome tweeter on the floor standings was really pleased with the amount of sound and quality for the money. Now If you have a friend in mind that is truly hesitant, In my honest opinion all that will be required mid line AVR that can produce 100 watts. That is very open most anything will work with this setup. Buy used and work your way up to that Flagship AVR
  2. Carl your reference the push pull type would be like the M&K Mx series subs? I think they used a push pull config.
  3. Mustang that drawing is awesome that was the idea!!!!!
  4. members and peope that use their subs or make the reference as an end table has always made me think. Hmmm why can't we? There are all types of items that are made to look like other things. Now are sub beautiful? LOL yes carl has one of the coolest setups I have ever seen. But how can we make the sub which in fact is needed in HT or to fully enjoy must music hide itself? I guess how can you make the console a swiss army knife? What orther than you sub takes up the most room with your setup? In my case it's my TV stand, as I looked there is an incredible amount of wasted space everywhere. That's what started this. Thank you gentlemen all responses are appriecated. Now trying to think outside the box has use thinking about building another box...LOL...
  5. LOL no sir not off the edge just close. Well I think it great. I am was thinking about several mods to the idea the other night. A dual sub using two drivers 12's ported? A single 18's fmounted on the back of the cab? Or how about 4 10inch along the orginal idea firing toward the floor? Now continuing with the orginal idea just using the console as the sub enclosure and TV stand. Floorstanding speaker will still need to be used. This idea came from thinking how could we reduce the amount of space or footprint we use for our systems? Ok here is another this is something I have only read about but still find very interesting. Could you build a horn or tuba sub that would or could be used as the TV cosole? That seems like a better idea. Gentleman thank you. Keep this going Who knows we might think of something really cool or just figure out we took the long way back to where we are. But it's really about the journey. Thanks guys!!!!
  6. I was looking back at the klipsch console for the lack of better words dreaming. I was kinda no I was admiring Scrap’s DIY sub build and it started me thinking. Could you pay tribute to the console and merge the DIY sub? So this idea started to come to life on a lot of paper with all the questions I am sure you have all had. Front mounted drivers? Bottom mounted drivers? Ported ? sealed? So I am going to toss out the idea I have thus far and would like others to comment on it. The back story I love the console….Period. .. But we all spend so much money on our amps it just seems crazy to put all your eggs in one basket. So my idea will still use your floor standing speakers and integrate the RC64 or RC7. No hard feelings to klipsch but really how many of these yacht air play systems did they think they were going to sell? A passive version would have been so cool. Sorry now to the idea. Why can’t we have 2 18’s mounted down firing from the bottom of a console in separate sealed 4 cubic feet enclosures? My idea is one on each end of the console. With av gear space on each side of the center channel and storage or more av space between the sub enclosures. There would have to be feet on the bottom if you opted to mount the 18’s on the bottom. Or some type of grill if you front mounted but right now it seems like a cool idea. Get a really awesome TV console for people that do not hang their TV on the wall. And also a great sub system without taking up any extra floor space. I would love to hear feedback and ideas to make this better or ways to proceed past just an idea. Thank you, Jeff
  7. My 4 day shifts end on Sunday afternoon it is a time honored tradition to sit on the back porch look at the woods and have a smoke. And think about the marvel that is the BES or bulk electric system of North America. Hope all of you have a great weekend and those of us in Klipsch country, the snow has been beautiful but it's time to go.
  8. Guys I didn't' realize how much I miss reading this one. My current and longtime favorite smoke. Cigar factory of New Orleans Tres Hermonos. Full body smoke. It just reminds me of being on bourbon street with my wife just enjoying a family vacation and great food. Also I have to also vote for Bulitt Burboun, just a great smooth whiskey. Going to try an Opus X one day.
  9. Ironic let me apologize for not wrapping the amp in a bag to prevent that from happening. I had a very busy week and my first priority was to get your amp to you as soon as possible. I tried to double box the NAD but the depth of the amp would not work with any of the materials I had. And I wanted to honor the email I sent you concerning when it would be shipped. I will also be happy to send you a can of compressed air and a Phillips head screwdriver to help you with my mistake. Also this could have been handled in the messenger instead slinging mud in the garage sale forum. I appreciate your diplomacy and you pointing out that mistake for everyone to see. I hope the amp serves you for many years. Now that I have apologized and we are doing this in the garage sale forum. If you feel that you did not get a good deal or you are not happy with the amp. I will be happy to refund your money through Paypal and wait there's more I will pay the expenses to ship it back here. When I get it, I will drive to my nearest Salvation Army store and use as a deduction for my 2014 taxes. Please let me know if you require the compressed air or the screwdriver so I can get the in the mail on Monday.
  10. Wuzzer that's awesome how noticeable was it from stock to tuned? Would you ever go back to stock?
  11. The picture of the remote is setting on a copy of cigar aficionado. I do like a good cigar from time to time. But I do not smoke in my home. Outside only. So no worries about buying equipment and having cigar smell.
  12. Final Reduction 450.00 includes paypale and shipping. That less than one hundred per channel.
  13. Take your time and I will be happy to answer all the questions you can come up with.
  14. LOL sorry I posted the wrong remote. I will be happy to answer any questions.
  15. NIce Schu. I have kinda changed to the CAO Brazilia as one of my Favorites
  16. If you some someone you know looking for a budget friendly way to get into home theater or a great unit for the garage this might be an option. This AVR boast almost all the features of the newer units.I also would like to mention that this unit includes all the 5.1 channel rca inputs that you would expect plus multiple optical inputs for digital audio signals. If you have any questions please just email me.This could be an option for a man cave or anywhere don't want to spend a lot of money but still want good sound.I will add a better picture of the back panel in just a few mins. Blu ray palyer not included.
  17. For sale is a Pioneer VSX-1019 7.1 AVR. This AVR is full of options including HDMI switching and usb connectivity on the front panel. Cnet gave it 4 stars for the sound quality. This unit will run just about any speaker out there with ease. This AVR would be perfect for someone looking to upgrade from a non HDMI unit to HDMI and the convenience that comes along with it.I posted this here in case a forum member might be interested or know someone that would like to take the plunge into our never ending journey. All questions will be replied and thank you.I will retake all of the pictures because they are too large for the forum.
