  1. I love big speakers... but I would get the Heresy IV.
  2. The JBL 2360/65 horns have a slot in the throat, which many have said will sound like frying bacon if overloaded. Dennis (DJK) always commented on this, but I am going to make an assumption here, that used in the home, the JBL horn would be ok in that regard, especially since it was designed for P.A. use but you are downsizing the area covered. The K402, is a modern design with more time to make it a better horn all around. You can see the long slot in this pic I pulled off the net.

    Jokes?

    I didn't grow up in Georgia but have lived here for 30 years now.
  4. When the leaves are wet, they are a lot harder to move... Glad u're in your new house.
  5. Our organization had our annual Founders Day affair, celebrating 70 years of supporting folks with disabilities. We probably had around 500 folks here tonight. Many of our clients were here to celebrate... We managed to get our pic with...
  6. Same cable as the Heresy II? Short story... I have my Heresy IIs up on some large speaker cabinets I'm working on. Moved my right channel Heresy one weekend, to work on the large cab. Later, with everything back in place, I had some tunes going to the Heresy IIs, and I notice the right channel is breaking up and not as loud.I turned up the right channel and see the amp clip light is lit up. Hmmm... shut everything down. Looking as the back of the HII, there was a single strand of wire shorting out the connection. They were plugged into a Crown amp, so it did keep working, just didn't like it. Once I cleaned up the termination on the speaker all is well. So... make sure when you got your Heresy IIs hooked back up that the wiring is all good, on both ends.
  7. My piggy bank is rather empty. It is less that 2 1/2 hrs from my house.
  8. Actually doing some mods... adding t-nuts to the mounting baffle for the 12 inches. Modded the throats slightly to better match the 12 inchers instead of the 15s. Got some better terminals... it's getting there. Still happily married, but the the androgen blocker has killed motivation for about everything. Best news is cancer is below detectable levels. How's your year been?
  9. Relatively speaking, those MWM cabinets are a simple build and sound phenomenal. 👌

  13. I only moved far enough away to be in the sweet spot...
  14. And fairly recently, too. They are about 67 inches width at the front and 45 inches deep. I had official ones, DTEL built singles, so they were easier to handle and fit through doorways. They sounded incredible. I used the LS top section with the MWMs for the bass. Scary clean bass.
  15. These are legit ones in my house, but up on their sides (being trapazoids, they tilt back).
  16. People in Dublin joke that if you look at the River Liffey you'll not drink Guinness. Eh, whatever, I've seen it and still like it.
  17. Somewhere I have an opener for this beer: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Griesedieck_Brothers_beer My paternal grandfather drank Schlitz beer, from a can... he would put salt around the rim. He worked in a maintenance shop for the Illinois Central Railroad. When they closed the shop in the small town where they lived, he drove about 30 miles up the Champaign-Urbana five days a week until he retired. In those days, that was considered a long way. Now, people drive the distance and greater every day. When my family moved up to Peoria, we first lived in Peoria Heights. My grade school was across the street from a Pabst Brewery. Bad beer followed me through my youth...
