    I bought PHT-409 / Monacor MHD-190 to mount a B&C DE120 and replace the K107Ti of my CWIII, because the horn is the same

     

    Note : Here in Europe we don't have DaveA 😪 and his superb Mahl 😍 so we tinker 😜

    are you saying that a PHT-409 / Monacor  horn can mount a B&C DE120  with ease , or is there any further  fitting needed --- tx

    @RandyH  Thank you for your video, it also shows the famous castle Neuschwarnstein of King Ludwig II. My father-in-law has reproduced the model by handwork true to the original. It was shown on many exhibitions in Germany. Here´s a picture which I had taken up.

    I would say they are in very good shape. They have a small blemish on the front of one but if I polished them up and did not tell you I don't think most would notice.99291144_542642339719218_4958847606487777280_n.thumb.jpg.56213183461d07ae887b7cbb3b8ce8dd.jpg

    great shape ----------buy them ---is all I say  ----what is the asking price -------------are you under 1500$

  4. both midrange drivers  were replaced at one time ---

     

    These mids are the K55M by Electrovoice  , the R  stamped at the rear is indicative of this ------

     

    -the Tweeters are odd for a 1983 speaker as the picture shown are round magnet Alnico k77  which were only used until  the late seventies and the Serial no  appears to be 1973 Belle speakers and not 1983 -----the letter L  is for 1973 -

     

    -the crossover AB-2  could be an upgrade done in 1983 or later ,   but at the same time as the K55M as both were introduced together in 1983  , the 1973  original crossover was the AA and the midrange drivers  were the K55V -

     

    - the badges  are not the original 73 badges ------but are the 1979  klipsch factory copper badge which is an original klipsch badge - 1 badge is missing -

    Jim Hunter was the transducer engineer they poached from Rolla,

    Jim Hunter

    Way back in 1978, Paul W. Klipsch hired Jim Hunter as a transducer engineer in Hope, Arkansas. Never one to stay still, Hunter has since served as a design engineer, production engineer, engineering manager, director of design engineering, VP of design engineering and company historian who is also in charge of The Klipsch Museum of Audio History.

    His audio career began in 1974, working for the Rola Company, an OEM driver manufacturing company. He and PWK co-authored U.S. Patent #4,387,786, an anechoic chamber featuring a multi-functional revolving door. Throughout his career at Klipsch, Hunter has been a key contributor to more than 150 Klipsch loudspeakers sold in specialty audio retail stores around the world.

    Hunter has been a member of the Audio Engineering Society since 1979 and a member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers since 1974. To put it simply - when Jim speaks, you’ll want to listen.

    What do you think a pair of black 1978 lascalas should be going for nowadays?

    you'll have to swing closer to 1500$ for a decent pair -with covid 19-----everything is selling fast  -------and even with that 1500$ is a great deal for such  speakers -- -

    There's some things I hadn't heard about in those... thanks

    my grandmother had lots of "folk" cures around. Eucalyptus was among the pine tar and others. She tended to put stuff in an atomizer and spritz it in her mouth.

    instant breath freshener ------cool ---

    There are many plants that have been used for a long time.

    yes , you can find a store with Chinese herbal  Medecine in every China Town , what sets them apart , is that a lot of these plants only grow in China ,  the way I do it is I have a Chinese person write me the note  in Chinese  , before  I go to such a store looking for the remedy -
