Two great dogs !
The pit was around a year old and the Shepard was 16 at the time . I knew the youngster was a good one because they hung out together and followed each other everywhere but he knew the Shepard was old and nearly blind so he never tried to ruffhouse with him

My Pit Mixes The Male (Black Collar) was a beast weighing in around 110lbs and the largest Pit I've seen in person . He was the smartest and best dog I've ever had , never thought my Shepard would be outdone but this guy was special ! My best friend ever but unfortunately lost him to bone cancer (awful) a year ago April. The Female ( Pink Collar) was around 60lbs and the sweetest dog ever ! She was also deaf. Got her to keep the big guy company . I was able to have the male at my shop when I first got him so he was able to play with 40 plus people a day. When I shut down I was not able to have him with me all day so I got the female to keep him company. They were great together and as usual she ruled the roost unless it was time to eat, she would let him eat first . Lost her to bladder cancer (very sad but not as bad as the bone cancer) in March of this year.

They look well cared for
The first Klipsch I ever owned and in my opinion the most underrated Klipsch speaker .
GLWS !

As you knw, there will be more.
For the ones who hasn't been able to check the MCM out: the difference in Khorn and Heresy is about the same difference in MCM to Khorn.
I once explained to a friend the MCM's made his LaScala's (which I sold him) and my LSI's sound like a clock radio

WOW
I'm in awe !

I cannot help you with in wall speakers but the Klipsch THX Ultra II system is fairly compact and can overcome a lot of placement issues. I have some and I'm amazed every time I play movies on them. There is a forum member @opusk2k9 with a set for sale at around 1/3 of the retail price

Uh, is there some photoshop involved here? Claude, did the MWM come up that high on your waist? Your right hand looks small.
No doubt, I've heard MWMs side by side compared to Jubes with same track going......MWMs were awesome. BIG foot print.
Granted, When I heard the Jubes at Hope this past year in a barn and not in corners, they sound even better than I remembered.
Gotta be photo shopped . No way that that MWM comes up that high, more likely comes up to where your butt and thigh meet .
His right hand is that small but he likes it because it makes other body parts look bigger

Happy Birthday Dtel !
You must be a pretty special guy when the people you love actually refer to themselves as Dtelswife and Dtelsdaughter
When my kids are asked if they are mine , the first thing they do is apologize

FWIW
I have 3 Home Theater/Music systems and I really like them all but when I have more room(and money) my 2 Channel Music Only System will be a pair of MWM Double bin's(which I already have) with K402's on top and most likely the KPT- 1802 (haven't heard/felt one yet) if not probably a Danley DTS-10. Then I'm done I swear
-
Yes , before Pyle bought Klipsch
They really did buy Jamo though .

Actually I think I need to replace Massive with Magnificent It's your fault you got me started with Massive

Just now, dtr20 said:
Also, if MWM is massive woofer machine, what does MCM stand for?
I'm going from memory but I think
MCM = Massive Concert Machine
MWM = Massive Woofing Machine
MSSM = Massive Sub Squalking Machine
MSM= Massive Squalking Machine
MTM = Massive Tweeting Macine

What would someone value these at?
3 MCM's ....Priceless
The sound you will get easily exceeds the asking price of $4500
3 MCM's $3600? $1200 a Stack
3 Active Xovers $600? $200 each
2 Hip's ( I think ) $500? $250 each
I would value a working stack of MCM's around $1500 a stack FWIW these appear to be in pretty good shape. Just my opinion and based on what I believe I could recoup if I needed to sell. Sound wise they are worth way more. The funny thing with these is they are hard to find if you want them and just as hard to sell when you don't
Be warned they are HUGE
-
From the pictures it appears to be 3 full stacks with a pair of HIP's , talk about your instant Hometheater/2Channel rig all in one
I can't really tell but it looks like 2 active crossovers with maybe another 1 underneath . If you have the room ... like Woofers and Tweeters said your search will be over !

You're right he does not really care for them, they are in a wide but shallow room, I don't think he really ever set them up as they should be, plus had buzzing problems with a turntable at one time which I don't think was ever fixed ? The room is about 20' wide and 10-12' deep and the jubes were in front side of khorns in the corner along the long wall, it's a really tough room for speakers. I tried to get him to move them into the bigger room but he really likes what he has in there now.
We were there for almost a week recently and he is thinking about selling them, I told him figure out he wanted for them, someone may be interested? I really wish he would give them a try in another room, but he is sentimental about his old favorites which is fine, it's really whatever makes him happy. I do love giving him a hard time and he expects it by now, we have traveled together many places and always have a good time even when it got crazy and dangerous at times, but always fun.
You are right and if I remember correctly Hardwood floors facing a bunch of windows.
I bet he's a riot to travel with ! He really had a passion for Klipsch , it saddens me that he doesn't come on the forum much anymore
. I don't know him very well but I really enjoyed my visit and the couple of conversations we've had.

I was thinking the 4080 was like $3500 retail? Which DSP are you referring to at that price? The 4080 sure has some great specs
You can get the XP on amazon for $1210 but I would certainly go with Cory as he has the presets and from what I can tell superior support

Some people love them, some people do not…
20 hours ago, dtel's wife said:I haven't heard a single person that purchased them say they don't love them! Please correct me if I'm wrong.
I think I know who Jim is referring to.
This gentleman has or has had just about every Heritage and Pro speaker made (Including the 600's and MCM's) He had a set of Jubs when I visited and I wanted to hear them but he did not have them set up which is when I found out he did not "love them" , he will probably never say it on the forum but he did mention it in person.
FWIW I did hear Claudes K402's and his Danley DTS10's I was blown away by both . I have since acquired a Danley and I have a spare set of MWM's that are waiting for some K402's. I would love to hear some Jubs and I'm pretty sure I would love them but there are 2 forum members I know that don't love them. 1 owns a pair and 1 doesn't.

Covering the cable with the caulk is no problem. As far as burying it underground you would want underground /flooded RG6 cable and definitely not RG59 .Problem is the sat guys don't usually carry underground cable, also you want them to terminate the underground where it will enter the house as you don't want it running inside the house . They can then barrel it with in house cable . The part about no breaks in the line is BS but many installers are told this because each connection is another possible point of failure . The only real disadvantage is insertion loss (signal Strength)but that should be minimal .
FWIW
many installers are contractors and get a flat/piece rate regardless of how much work is required , so they have little incentive to spend extra time at an install. Be warned many will feed you a line of complete BS to make their job easier but there are many good ones as well.
If you have any questions PM me . I would be happy to help or even speak with your installer directly.
I have not installed sat systems but I have Contracted for all the large Cable companies(what a nightmare) and I moved on to Fiber about 4 years ago

Two mean dogs
actually best buds . The Rott was a friends, beautiful dog about a year old here and the Pit was a few months younger . They played really ruff but they both loved it , however if either one yelped they both stopped immediately and the offender always apologized . Unfortunately the Rott just keeled over a few months later and the Vet claimed he had a heart attack and that it wasn't uncommon for that breed
