    A herd of moose...

    I was working in North Dakota doing FTTH . Went outside to relieve myself because the next neighbor is miles away, find a nice tree to stand by. Start going look over and right next to me was this calf . I started screaming and leaving a yellow stream as I ran. The guy I was working with was at the truck laughing so hard he was crying after he realized what was going on . She was very young but huge ! Much taller than me . In the pic she was several yards behind me and doesn't look that tall.
  2. If you can try swapping the receivers to see if its the speakers, or receivers. Although it could be the room or other components , it's a good starting point. FWIW I've had 3 of the Denon 38xx recievers , I like their sound a lot !
  3. I agree with billybob completely , I would either put firm on your price or raise it a couple hundred since everyone (including myself if I was closer)will be offering less on craigslist. I would probably just put firm and eliminate most of the senseless Emails although even if you put firm you will still get lowball offers , just not as many . I didn't mean I would take less for those but a nonforum member on craigslist , I would definitely try to get a better deal . On the forum I would just pay the price, ignore the ad, or at the most pm with a very fair offer if I thought the price was a little high
  4. RIP. My jaw dropped hearing the first album when it came out , it was like nothing else. I don't know if it was just me but it seemed like Boston made crappy stereo systems sound great and great ones sound just OK
  5. I would think something is wrong . Mine had great bass. I'm stumped as to why yours have never had great bass . I'm with you on the crossover after having checked the drivers, wiring , and cabinet but hard to believe they came with both XO's bad
  6. I almost forgot ! You should PM the gentleman that posted the Specs for the KL-396's . You might be surprised at what they cost . Klipsch Pro stuff is more affordable than you would think.The focus is more on performance than looks. I have not personally heard them but people that are highly respected have and raved about them
  7. God Bless Heresey's They probably saved Klipsch at one time . I have heard I's II's and some super Heresey's , they all sound great and are amazing for their size. I have not heard Heresey III's but I have heard RF-7 II's and I have to believe in a large room along with high levels the RF-7's will be a better fit
  8. If it were me and given your budget , musical taste and width restrictions . I would be looking for Something along the lines of KLF -30'S , KLF-20'S , KLF-10'S , CF-4'S , CF-3'S , RF7'S , RF7 II'S , or KG5.5's . All of them can be bought (Used) somewhere in the range of $1600(pair) and down to probably $350. They would all be much happier with more power than you're using but of course you would have plenty left over in your budget. I have not heard the RP-280'S but if new and hassle free is your thing , I am sure they will do a very nice job as well .
  9. Agreed sometimes alcohol makes me stupid and apparently hard of hearing

    Man if they are mechanically correct , that is a screaming deal !
  11. I'm pretty sure they are talking about a guy whose screen name was Indyklipschfan or something very similar. Was very active for a long time but has not been around much for the last several years.
  12. You can ask him (Youthman) but don't ! He gets deals that very few can match. LaScala's are great for everything but low bass. I have a System with 5 LaScala's and I would highly recommend them.
  13. I would also go with the KLF-30
  14. Sure you can You can still chisel words onto stone tablets if you want as well. The only reason to use 98 is if you had Millenium . I would rather bang my head against a stone tablet than use Millenium
  15. I'm about 35 miles west of Chicago . I can help if needed
  16. I'm with Jason .That set looks like fun .
  17. That's Awesome Congratulations !
  18. I'm not positive But I believe it goes something like MCM = magnificent concert machine MWM = magnificent woofing machine MSSM= magnificent sub squawking machine MSM = magnificent squawking machine MTM =magnificent tweeting machine
  19. Thanks I appreciate you sharing your impressions , I don't know if I'll ever get to hear a set of Jubilee's so having input from an experienced and valued forum member helps me figure out which direction I want to go. Jason you are very close to me, you should swing by for a listen some time. I'm about 5 mins from Seth's house
  20. dwilawyer Thanks for the reply. I really was curious as I have not heard the Jub bass bin . I do have 3 MCM 1900's (4Way) which I use now but they came with 2 extra MWM bins and ever since I heard Claudes 402's I have set my sights on getting a pair of 402's to pair with them. They truly are special ! But if a Jub bass bin can out perform or even keep up with a MWM then that is certainly something to consider because the MWM's which I love , made all the friends who helped me move them , inform me Not to call when I want to move them again The 2 bass bins I haven't heard and really want to are the jub bin and Claudes 1/4 pies. I do however keep hearing there is no replacement for displacement and as I have gone through the Klipsch lineup it has held true . That being said the Jub is a much newer design than the MWM so I certainly have to consider it's possible.
  21. Have you heard MCM's ? Have you heard MWM's with a K-402 ? I'm not saying you're wrong as I have seen Jubilee's in Person but they were not hooked up and unfortunately I did not get a chance to listen I have heard the other 2 systems and I honestly have a hard time believing that the Jubilee bass bin will out perform a MWM .But I don't know that for sure . Which is why I ask, it would save me alot of floor space I will say the K-402 is amazing and I want a pair . I'm sitting on a pair of MWM's which I hope to someday mate with 402's
