  1. Twenty years of being a landlord has taught me that people treat rental homes the same as rental cars. Appliances and mechanicals are cared for in same fashion one would treat the transmission of a rental Mustang in Las Vegas on a bachelor party weekend. Tenants that respect, maintain, and timely pay rent are a joyful rarity.

  2. Can these possibly sound so good they're worth anything close to $ 8950.00? This dude lives very near and I am tempted to give them a listen but he may need to move the decimal point one position to the left.

    No affilliation blah blah blah

    1965 15" TANNOY DUAL CONCENTRIC RED MONITOR SPEAKERS

    ORIGINAL OWNERS OF THESE WARM, VIVID SOUNDING SPEAKERS.
    PURCHASED THEM IN THE THEN FAMOUS NEW YORK CITY ELECTRONICS DISTRICT.
    THIS CONCENTRATION OF ELECTRONICS STORES LATER BECAME THE SITE OF THE WORLD TRADE CENTER TWIN TOWERS.

    DRIVEN WITH A DYNO STEREO 70 TUBE AMP AND PREAMP---WHICH WE STILL HAVE. (DYNO SYSTEM IS NOW SOLD)
    THE OILED WALNUT FINISH HAS BECOME MORE BEAUTIFUL WITH YEARS OF POLISHING AND CARE.
    HAVE NOT PLAYED THAT MUCH SINCE WE RETIRED THE DYNO STEREO SYSTEM 30 YEARS AGO. .

  3. Warren Buffet and Bill Gates have for some time been soliciting wealthy public figures to pledge the majority of their money to their charitable foundation. I wonder if this was what they discussed. Kudos to Paul for listening if it was.

  4. My perspective had changed after losing my older brother in 2013 at 46. I woke up a few days ago realizing that I have already outlived him. I remind myself often that I have a exceptional wife and wonderful kids and for that I am grateful. If that were not enough I have been lucky enough to be friends with people I respect and admire. Life is a gift so I am going to make it count today by making the folks I love happy. Tomorrow when I wake up I'm going to try to do it again.

  5. I have not yet had the pleasure of listening to the Juicy Music Peach but if it is anything like my Juicy Music Blueberry Xtreme it is an absolute delight. Marks products are gorgeous to boot. Also, where else but here is the builder available to discuss his goods? Good luck with your sale.

  6. Amy has politely and repeatedly asked us to refrain from uninvited comments regarding price in the Garage Sale forum. She is the Moderator and she has weighed in on the matter. Why is that not enough of an answer?

    The notion that a few White Knights are saving us all from getting ripped off with their precious comments is as laughable as it is self serving. Even the most modest research effort by a buyer will result in detailed information regarding value and features. Is there an epidemic of sellers swindling members of the Klipsch forum but it has somehow escaped my notice? This is nothing more than a solution in search of a problem. Folks who have diarrhea of the keyboard just can't help themselves.

  7. that would be one of those... "they cost 9 grand new so 4500 is a great deal" ads.

    what does the price of new, redesigned speakers have to do with 20+ year old speakers????? i just dont get it.

    Many of us bought our Khorns previously used at far less than 20% of their current cost so it is difficult to relate to someone who may have shelled out $ 8000.00+ and can't wrap their mind around the current market.

  8. Welcome to the "Lounge", where just about anything other than religion, politics, and gun control is acceptable.

    HOw about one where we can talk about religion, politics and gun control ?

    The more inflammatory the topic the better. Have at it.

  9. No doubt the Lounge is excellent at kicking the doors open to expression. My hat is off to that venue as I have enjoyed the time I've spent reading the stylings of our learned bretheren. The Out House welcomes the wanton thread crapper with open arms and invites him or her to disrupt and condescend at will.

    We already have an Alerts sub forum for Garage Sale so why not add just one more called Out House? Or if that name is a touch too impolite we could call it the " Reading Room". There seems to be a demand for a forum where all are welcome to come on in and sit down for a spell and ponder aloud whatever comes to mind regardless of the subject posted by the OP. For instance: the OP

    posts a favorite barbeque recipe and someone can begin a side discussion of GM's powerglide transmissions or perhaps a couple other folks can build their post counts discussing luner eclipses.

    Sound good guys?

  11. Mark-

    Your price is not out of line considering the ALK crossovers and the effort you have put into the paint job. I for one appreciate the 'spatter' paint job that gives the LS's a gig ready vibe. Further I dig your crusty sense of humor to ward off time wasting tire kickers.

    I hope you get all fourteen hundred of those dollars for those righteous speakers. Don't let a little hazing from forum vets bother you they are like big brothers - they will grow to love you. As for newbs that thread crap - I'm speachless.
