  1. Scrappy

    I couldn't imagine a better way to go from an advanced member to a forum veteran .Lol

    Keysersoze

    I think Scrappy is right on. I can't imagine an in ceiling center working well. The rears would be "OK"

    Leesburg Monkey

    Just having fun nothing personal. It was good of you to give a fellow forum member some advice BUT FYI mentioning B*S* Will get you some razzing around here :rolleyes:

  2. Warming up the tuber, yet another day of tuning, today is component measure/swap/listen, measure/swap/listen.

    There are worse ways to spend a day !

    Don't be selfish let the neighbor hear those :)

  3. These were beasts to move, especially without any handles. We are aimling for a playback system for the music department.

    They are a bear to move!

    The kids in the music department are going to be spoiled BUT you may have unintentionally cursed them to spend the rest of their life chasing that sound :D Probably get a huge influx of new forum members when they graduate

  4. We picked up a set of the MWM bins from JWC, to be used at our school. At resent they are in storage, until we get some more things to go with them. I can hardly wait. They are all stock, meant of a permanent install, as they have no trim or handles.

    Lucky School !

  5. I really need to hear these!! Someday I will own a MCM set... :D

    You or any forum member are welcome to stop by any time .

    I don't have the knowledge that many of these guys have. Especially the guys that post in the Pro Section but my place is open to any member wanting to hear MCM's or THX Ultra 2's.

    You're pretty tenacious about getting gear so I'm guessing you will get a set :)

  6. However, even with what im about to Dial in (EAWs), I still need to keep that open mind

    Those look massive ! and that is coming from a guy with MCM's :o

    I have been following that and I know your initial impressions are that you are very pleased.

    I'm happy you found those and I'm looking forward to your thoughts !

  7. There is nothing smaller that Klipsch makes that even comes close to the MCM. I know because I have owned almost all of them and/or heard A/B comparsions to the few I haven't owned and it it simply is not even close. The bigger the better..........if implemented properly.

    I will say that I was very surprised how nice these sound at low to moderate listening levels. I was pretty sure going in that they could piss off a few neighbors and do it well. They really do everything well . Years ago I ended up with LaScala's and Belle's and thought this is it ! How could you need anything more ? Well You Don't ! BUT these are just in a different league ,they truly outperform everything else I've heard by a long shot ( With the exception of Claude's 402's )

    Actually there is one thing these don't do well , and that is bad source material !. There are some recordings I've had that were fine before but when played through these its almost painful !

    Mark Thanks for your input ! I know you are very knowledgeable and I hold your opinions in high regard !

    Oh and I know my speakers aren't too big , My room is too small :)

  8. Wow. Lots of stuff jammed in there. I see you didn't paint or stain my old "coffee table sub." But hey, nothing wrong with raw OAK plywood, is there.

    I told you my room was ridiculously small for what I have in there. Talk about overkill but it still sounds great. Remodeled the whole place and waiting to decided if I want to paint it black to match the MCM's but the wood is nice and I hate to ruin it . I figure I would wait and let you decide if you want to paint, stain, or leave it raw when I trade it back on those Danley's LOL

  9. That looks fearesome.......nice livingroom system. :)

    Thanks but actually yours looks fearsome especially with those 684 subs in the middle!

    I haven't heard the KPT-684's yet but I really want to.

    Although I have never met you or dealt with you directly. I have watched you deal with many situations , some entertaining and some flat out difficult, and you have always handled them with grace and class . You will surely be missed ! I appreciate all you have done for this forum and its members. I wish nothing but happiness in your future endeavors.

  11. A long time ago I promised to post pictures of my MCM's after spending some considerable time away from home. I finally got to get these set up and post some pics

  12. I can tell you that the impact and the hammerdrill are beasts !

    This is a good deal but if you don't need the radio, you can find the same kit minus the radio for $200 if you are patient and it comes with the bigger batteries that have the fuel gauge built in which is handy and the batteries out perform these batteries in both runtime and power!

  13. I have twin Danely DTS-10 subs that are 100 db output for a 1W input. I'm running about 300 WPC, but usually less than 1/4 of a watt for music is all I need per bin, since I only have about 32 dB of headroom and would have about 42 db of headroom if I ran the maximum 2,000 Watts per bin. My RTA says they get down to 8 Hz. in my room, and I have NEVER lacked bass on movie LFE tracks even with only about 1/7th their power rating. On the "Flight of the Phoenix" plane crash they rattle the windows, the floor, any loose doors, door knocker AND the couch frame I'm sitting on. I have no need for more.

    Tom Danley is the King of bass and nothing touches his products in terms of performance for home or stadiums, except maybe Klipsch if they were in the stadium market, but they are not.

    I can attest to that. I experienced Claudes Danley's and they rattle the whole house and parts of your body you forgot you had ! I think those things could rupture some Implants :D

  14. You can't go wrong with either ! I prefer Belles but just by a hair over Lascala's and actually would prefer LSI Splits over both. Lascala's will be the easiest to find and give you the best bang for your buck.

    $1500 for Belles is a good price !
