  1. Bruce nice pics; I still think they are U-G-L-Y, but the ones with factory top grilles are not 2 baggers & the feel (sound) like Miss America with my eyes closed, LoL! ;-) Now I saw a pic of a set with a full grille over at Audiokarma: WoW!
  2. Ported riser? Is that passive &/or reversible? I'd like to get the horns to EAR level, & get more BASS, too. If anyone has a thread to point me to...
  3. John is trying really hard now to "imagine there is no hell". Having said that, there are lots of Beatles & Paul Songs I like.
  4. Glad they are Oiled Oak; it's a LONG drive to Little Rock. Sweet deal though!
  5. I'm in Jackson, Mississippi; about as Southern as they come
  6. Welcome to the Klipsch Forum! Love my Heresy IIs; I think you can get a good deal on IIIs; there are some dealers, I've heard who will work with you on price, if you are in the lower States.
  7. Remember Illinois Audio; buy copy of Stereo Review for ads, call & order by cc
  8. Yeah, clean & tighten spades on the short list; on those Chorus II are nice, too.
  9. someone here can probably help you decode those serial numbers: are they 1977 models #12,150 & #12,159 produced that year????
  10. True Grit, remake just now, Original later:
  11. Gods and Generals on the 151st Anniversary of the 1st battle of Fredericksburg
  12. Cool as t'other side of th' pillow!!! Glad they went to a good home, er shop! A can of Kiwi Black boot polish could work wonders on the finish. How about some pics, once you clean them up? Were any of the tags on the back intact?
  13. P.S. Looks like a previous owner re-wired the Woofer & Mid-range. How hard is it to re-wire the Tweeters??? snailtrax also has some nice CF-3 & Quartets among others for SALE or TRADE.
  14. 2001 Ford Crown Victoria LX Class... 75000 actual miles, still a nice car...& paid for...Thank you.
  15. Thank you! Lee & Jackson are still asleep, so I got to use a real computer; tags aren't possible with iPhone, LoL.
  16. I would not do that again; but Bill strapped it in securely & my Air Force training allowed me to verify; meantime, I want a receiver hitch for my car.
  17. other picture over here: http://www.audiokarma.org/forums/album.php?albumid=3267 I HATE the you have to go through to post pics here!
  18. ***OLD Thread Topped*** 1980 La Scala (THANK YOU to Forum Member snailtrax!!!) Went over to his place, "Down in Louisiana, Louisiana - Land of Creole Sues, Patois, Mardi Gras and romantic blues", Sunday & picked these up, after a nice listen to these & other gear. Serial numbers check out to 1980. Previous owner had stained the original BR finish to a nice dark reddish brown, with clear lacquer and had installed Bob Crites Sonicaps on the Type AA Crossovers. Mid Horns are K-55V & Tweeter K-77M. Have NO plans to change or repair anything working properly, for now, or run them on Tube Amps I don't own, nor play records on a Turntable I lost in 1990 & am not looking for, please don't take offense; it took me somewhere around 30 years to get over the fact that they are butt ugly....but, this set has had some nice make-up, including a Factory Top Grille...wish it were full length (but my wife sez the cats would play hell with that) & CANE (yes, I understand CANE was not a factory option, but I won't get rid of the original). Haven't really cleaned them up or gently tightened screws, although they seem to be pretty clean, have both original SN labels intact. Have, however listened to the Shiite Moslem out of them & when I didn't have JURY Duty, as I did Monday, Tuesday & ALL DAY Wednesday, working them out, even to late & odd hours. They are being driven, by a Denon AVR-3312CI AVR, using Monster Cable from circa 1991, when I bought my original kg1 & Klipsch dealers were pushing this type wire (as was Klipsch, at least in the Owner's Manual, I still have mine) other gear in my sig-tag. I have listened to them with Dolby Pro Logic II Music (5 Heresy II), RW-12d & km-rsw, Direct, Pure Direct, MULTI CHANNEL STEREO, STEREO with and without SWs. Like them best in STEREO, 2.2 & take back all I ever said about 2 channel audio; at least until I get more La Scalas, Klipschorns &/or Belles. For movies, they are wonderful in all forms of Lossless, I hear details on movies I never heard, and the Heresy II Center, circa 2001, keeps up effortlessly (until I can replace it with a La Scala, or similar). Don't have many pics just yet, but will attempt to attach a few. Last 3 are from Bill BEFORE we loaded them in the trunk of my car. First 1 is while they were in my trunk. Have another but can't get it to post.
  19. Barely. May have even watched it, but no clear memory.
  20. Nice beach north Padre Island & a Nat'l Seashore, too!
