  1. derp? Even I can learn new words.. things too hahahahah About “Derp is an expression sometimes used online to signify stupidity, much like the earlier forms of “duh” and “dur.” One of the first recorded instances of the term “derp” comes from a short-lived South Park character, Mr. Derp. Mr. Derp In the 34th episode of South Park entitled “The Succubus,” (original airdate April 21st, 1999) the character of Chef has quit his job as the school cafeteria worker, and has been replaced by a new character named Mr. Derp. The character performs slapstick cliche’s, strikes himself on the head with a hammer, and exclaims “Derp!” So on we go.... ==================================================================== LOL.. The Belle was a better "furniture piece" to fill in the gap for MUSIC between two k horns that "looked better" than a La Scala. Named after Belle, Pauls wife. This was done by Paul, long before Home Theater. Think today how important a HT Dialog- discrete Center Channel is in movies in a 5.1/ 7.1 format? It's Very Important. And, at that time, the music recordings were not as good as well. (my opinion here LOL) So it was not as critical. Also, ask yourself, what type of music did Paul listen to, and made these speakers for, to re create that too? That third channel at that time was a mono mix of the left n right Channel too. If TIMBRE matters in the mids and highs (I say it does, Across the three up front) think of a car moving left to center to right.. sound wise... And k horn is NOT really possible here... The BEST speaker is the La Scala.. a close second is the Belle... But side by side... A vs B in that situation.. Audio wise.. not visually... But what speaker sounds the best? Your gonna want the La Scala. Is the Belle prettier ?? Yes... Confused? Or did that help?
  2. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_Stevens Why not just go there, and read all about him and the controversies too? That said.... "Morning Has Broken" and "Peace Train" awesome songs.... Especially live! my 2 cents
  3. A La Scala center... It has the same top end, horn size wise that your K horns have, NOT the Belle. Timbre matters here in HT. Sorry to be so blunt. So do it right the first time and be DONE with it.. In HT, always match or over buy better the Center Channel... Never under buy here. Some type of sub, Yes, I know... U still need it... FYI, most all discs are in 5.1 into 7.1 processing.. dont panic... Blu Ray is awesome.. Go this route... (most will also upscale older discs too) You mention nothing of your video out, and to what? HDMI is a standard cord to give you 1080P (the top standard for video) Also Blu Ray--- from the Pre Amp/ Receiver to the projector or TV. Yes, you need this. The Pre amp or Receiver should have all of the regular sound formats, and you can go from mid priced here, to just crazy too. (And u do not need to go super crazy IMO) Take a deep breath... ask better questions after you do some looking and we will continue to help you.. So... What do you need??? 1 La Scala Center.. make it work! 2 Sub - yes u need one.. But you can add this later... 3 Buy something 5.1/ 7.1 HDMI w sound formats too.. Don't "over buy" here... Unless u feel a need! You will thank yourself...and me later... PS Have fun, too.. It's gonna sound awesome!!!!!!!!!!
  4. Get the bigger horn in the La Scala. (It is the same as a Klipschorn.) You will thank yourself, and me, later.
  5. LOL sorry neo 33.. Colterphoto1 came over to watch the movie "This Is It!" Sunday night. I will let him comment..

Will u cut a deal with Fellow Klipsch a holics? The MX 150 looks incredible!! Drooooooool!
  7. Do yourself a favor.. Use another Cornwall as the center. (PLEASE!!!)
  8. Michael came over last night... We cranked it some.... I will let him say what he thinks... (hehehe It was awesome!!!)
  9. It's OK Gary... You never know anything for sure about anyone without walking in their shoes too. In this case, I was celebrating the man and his music.. Not his crazy personal life.
  10. get it.. but enjoy the music cd's if it moved you then...... There are just some songs... that will not die in you... ya know?
  11. WalMart had it on sale same price in Blu Ray as regular special set.. At 24.99
  12. Lots of full songs.... YES Rehersals..dancers musicians crews directors just grasp all of it... Trying to bring to the masses the biggest journey so far! Seriously it's a 10. Please come back and say what you think after you see it too. I've seen it twice now.
  13. Ok just a thought... you might try it....to see sound wise... I am sure you can get a putty knife under it.. and re glue it if needed..LOL
  14. cyclonecjDid you ever try to flip the la scala upside down, and tilt it down just a little?
  15. Amazing in Blue Ray. He didn't seem creepy at all. The film is amazing, so is the sound too. You can just see his creativity running, with his hand on everything setting up this tour. Say what you want, This guy was AMAZING, and we lost something big, music wise, when he died. It's my opinion, but all Michael wanted to do was to fit in, (Nearly impossible) and be accepted, (OK Michael was a little odd, but then again so is everyone) and to entertain us too (Which he always, and I mean ALWAYS did) taking us on a journey with him too. It would of been cool if Michael had gone full circle, and he was considered "cool again" for all of us old and new fans. Buy the Blue Ray, you will not be dissapopinted.
  16. I use 3 La Scala's up front. It really is awesome. I am not just saying it, you need to just experience it and you will never go back. I will go as far to say that just about any three identical speakers up fron should be the rule. Think of a car going left to right... When seamless, it is a beautiful thing... (sound wise) You have come this far already. Don't compromise the dream!
  17. My guess is, another Belle would work nicley for my center. Find a way to make it work. Yep.
  18. Just remeber the THX subs are a system with that KA 1000 amp too. Together it is awesome. THX is a standard, not a sound format too. I use these subs with La Scalas. I am SURE they exceed any THX standard, but the La Scala's are not "THX Ultra 2 certified." What am I getting at? What works best for you, in your room, in your situation is what counts. I am still in awe of my own room. Good luck!
  19. Be sure to use lots of blankets under around and in between them. As had been said take the tops off. Sides too. So face the bottoms together, with blankets in between. Pillows work good here too. Hopefully, you do not have to stop on a dime too? LOL A big piece of cardboard underneath it all makes it easier to slide in and out without scratching. Go Slow..and get another person to help you. Good Luck. Take pics, and enjoy "the journey" too. Congrats!
  20. I think it is just the female reporter, here she is... shoving a mic in your face... seeming to have "empathy" to you with such "hard hitting" questions to the losing side...like "How does it feel?" "Bret, how does it feel to lose a big one like this, and have to go home losers .. disappointed?" This taken from a comedian on the radio this am... Had me laughing too..... Always a bit of truth in rants like this. LOL What Bret or any Quarterback would say if he could too.. hahahahahaha Look you !@^%##&(#@ I just lost my last game, maybe of my career, shut the !@&^!$!* up. Your seriously asking me how I feel? Now? Just let me go to the locker room shower and get out of here! How does it feel? You never played this game, if it wasn't for your big chest, huge teeth, and who you slept with to get this job..... Did you honestly go to college or grad school to come up with a "tough question" like "How does it feel?" Why are you down here anyway on the field? This is a mans game!!!! I mean face it, you never played the football... How would you even have a clue what 11 guys go through on that field to try and win.... Go back home, pop some babies out, and eat chocolate bob bons with Doritos guzzling your diet pepsi while watching Oprah or Jerry Springer... How do I feel? Ask my wife who has already spent my paycheck and the 40 relatives I paid to see the game tonight? How do I feel??? Had me laughing too... Instead it is so sterile.. Something like.... "We gave everything we could tonight. I guess we just came up short. They (insert Saints or any team) played a good game, and will be tough in the Superbowl. I wanna thank the Vikings organization and the Fans too, they are the best too! ((Possible tears or raise your hand)) I will go home with my family and see about next year after I have some time to think about it. " Then Favre walks away.... What do you really want him to say? Who Dat kicked my arse? The Saints did! BTW.... Go COLTS!!! hehehehehe One last thing too....... One thing true in pro sports that ruins everything your taught as a kid... It has nothing to do about "It's not if you win or lose..... It's how you played the game." Or if you gave it your best shot, and came up losing? It IS about winning... period. And were teaching that now to our kids too.. Win, at all costs.The Superbowl win is the only thing that matters. And if the Colts, by resting players this year the last 2 games, did not prove this theory 100%.. well your blind. Winning the Superbowl IS everything .... period! Go COLTS!
  21. So what do we know for sure? Great arm with Manning? YES!!! Great mind to dissmantle a defense? Yes he does... Is he superhuman... No... Does he make mistakes and have a bad day? Yes, on occasion. If he wasn't such a nice guy too all of this accolades coming his way would be worthless. Just wait, next week Elden it will all be about Brees. They probably had it all in their heads that the opponent would be Favre. I am excited for your town... This time next week, you will just feel the rush building it's an amazing thing to happen for the WHO DAT City too. NFL prpoerties are just doing their jobs, protecting the likes of Michael Dwayne Vick (born June 26, 1980) is a professional American football quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles of the National Football League. He played for the Atlanta Falcons for six seasons before serving 18 months in prison for his involvement in an illegal dog fighting ring.. Yeah that guy.... To earn a living. This year we seem to have 2 classy guys at Quarterback. It will depend on the defense to enable the winning team IMO to win. We should see some points scored on both sides. GO COLTS!!!!
  22. Heresey, Cornwalls, and La Scala's all do very well. For just vocals. the heresey is a fantastic speaker. For overall music.. Stay with the Cornwall or La Scala. Best all around, do it all one speaker for Klipsch Karaoke...?? Hands down, the Cornwall. I used to use a set up of the music in the Cornwalls and Just vocals through the Heresey's on top of the Cornwalls. It was/is breathtaking, trust me.. Last but not least, stay with the better recorded Karaoke Discs too. You will appreciate it later, if your song is a copy of.. or VERY close to the original. I hate poorly done background discs.
  23. If paired with the KA 1000 amp...(Which was made to be used with the subs as a system) 2 THX subs are just fantastic. Music or Movies. I love mine.
