Hello Klipschorn lovers From our Club meetings reviews at: *** http://aca.gr/meetings.htm *** I have chosen 3 related to 2 KLIPSCHORN based SYSTEMS: ** http://aca.gr/meet99-5.htm ** ** http://aca.gr/meet01-1.htm#2nd ** ** http://aca.gr/meet01-4.htm#2nd ** Have a good day Christos Skaloumbakas A.C.A.

quote: Originally posted by mobile homeless: I agree 100%. I am surprised the moderators have not stepped in. The posting is absurd as it borders on simple advertising, the profit is just a little more obscured, but there regardless. kh A post with my name, what an honor thanks. (I suppose I deserve a reply, or not??) Maybe, I should start thinking of building a speaker or amplifier to get some profit after all... Sorry, but I think Hi-End is an international Bussiness and so is our web-site content... ************************************** (ATTENTION: Links below are totally irrelevant to "2 CHANNEL AUDIO" FORUM!!!) ************************************** http://aca.gr/event_ista.htm (events from Club's visit to Istanbul) This event is covered as well, by Istanbul HiFi Club at http://www.ihifi.org/PAGES/devam00.htm http://aca.gr/ista_elgiz.htm (system from Istanbul, based on a Wilson Grand Slam X-1 + SUB! speaker) http://aca.gr/ista_haluk.htm (system from Istanbul, based on a Genesis 200 speaker system) ******************************************* http://aca.gr/pop_whittaker.htm (system from N.

I have the feeling though that Klipsch forum got more circulation lately, because I think music bonds people and really many of the true and honest Hi-Enders in this Forum are thirsty to learn from others and not call the FORUM MONITORS or MODERATORS (I do not know what that is) as you are threatening me. (do you think we deserve an apology??) Christos Skaloumbakas A.C.A. President ** http://aca.gr ** ** aca@aca.gr **

With that kind of mentality you think you are promoting Hi-End ???!!! I think with letting you know about our Club, is a good chance for you to see the European way of Hi-End approach. You are wrong to believe that this is a totally Hellenic Club in a sence that only Greek systems are found there. This happens only in: *** http://aca.gr/system_aca.htm *** But if you go to: *** http://aca.gr/system_world.htm *** you will find more than 30 Hi-End systems from all over the world and if you go to: *** http://aca.gr/system_ihifi.htm *** you will find more than 40 Hi-End systems (links) from Istanbul - Turkey (we have ecxellent relations with their Club called iHiFi you know...) I hope some day we will have excellent relations with you too... And now some advertising for the Istanbul Club. You can find it at *** http://www.ihifi.org *** Christos Skaloumbakas A.C.A. President *** http://aca.gr/ *** *** aca@aca.gr ***

Dear Kh, hello You must realise that Audiophile Clubs are non profit organizations. I did not wish to reply to you but I saw that you have reacted (to be honest in a more proper way) in another post, saying the same things. Could you tell me what are we selling - advertising??? Despite all that, I want to offer you a gift though... We are "selling" 140 great turntables. You can find them in http://aca.gr/turntable.htm , web-page included in the official web-site of Audiophile Club of Athens My best regards to you Christos Skaloumbakas

Dear fellow Audiophiles, *** http://aca.gr *** has become one of the best Audio related sites in the world and mainly this is due to the fact that many interesting hi-enders have joined the club having all the privileges a member can have and others have simply shared their profile, their system and their expertise. Since my recent flood of posts in this very popular friendly and hospitable KLIPSCH FORUM, there has been a significant sirculation increase in our web-site. It seems you are too many in this FORUM and I have the feeling they must be very good system set-ups around here. So, I will not miss the chance to propose to you from here ( http://aca.gr/apply.htm ) *********************************************** A. JOIN THE CLUB no matter your nationality... *** http://aca.gr/application.txt *** Entrance fee is $35 (or EUR) and annual fees $35 (or EUR).

To qualify for those pages, photographs and comments according to guidelines in the TEXT FORMS are absolute neccessity. 2. Please, do not bother to apply if you own a Home Cinema system. This is strictly a 2-channel Audio Club. 3. Every couple of months, we collect the counter hits of all profile pages and make a list ( http://aca.gr/system_sort.htm ), just to have an idea about systems' popularity among our selected visiting audience, but really we DO IT JUST FOR FUN, although you can extract interesting statistical conclusions from there...

Hello and thanks for the interest for this post. I think we are all missing the point here. When I opened this post I emphasised (enlarge photos inside) I should 've said study the photos. I can not speak for the other 2 gentlemen but please enlarge the photo that has been taken from above (I am speaking about my Genesis 300/301 based system at http://aca.gr/pop_skal.htm ) which shows the 1/3-1/3-1/3 ratio deviding the room in 3 equals between back wall, speaker, hot spot, behind wall. Also look at the photo showing the tilted roof (no parallel walls that is) Can this set-up and the music reproduction I am experiencing (my humble opinion) be translated into dollars (or euro or yen). Allow me to advise you not to spend anything on hifi harware unless you know where to put it and how to put it. As I mention in another post, there are people out there spending more on equipment than on their listening room itself!!. ENVIRONMENT is the NO 1 ISSUE in getting REALISM from your music reproduction. And another point I want to mention if I may. If we feel we have the experience to comment, we never refer to money in absolute terms but in terms of value for money I would say MUSIC VALUE FOR MONEY. Have a good day to all.

Thanks EAR, Allow me a rule of thumb. "Do not spend more money in your audio gear than the cost of your listening room (believe me, some they do..). It will be waste of money". Implying... According to my humble opinion, room is the no 1 "audio equipment"... Christos

Thanks Ray, because I started to feel a bit guilty about my efforts to gather in http://aca.gr many wonderful systems around the world. Have a look at this one now, found in the world systems directory page: http://aca.gr/system_world.htm "....Roberto Delle Curti, Royal Device designer in royaldevice.com/, reveals how it has been possible to make The BIGGEST SPEAKER in the WORLD for the GREATEST AUDIO ROOM in the WORLD. The two frontal speakers are made of 8 LAURA speakers per channel with a total of 16 floorstanding loudspeakers (click for another view). Together with The NO-CROSSOVER choice makes a BIG MONOWAY speaker that reproduces frequencies from 30 to 6-7 Khz. The range from 10 to 30 Hz is reinforced by the BIGGEST HORN SUBWOOFER of the WORLD (click for top view) while the HIGH FREQUENCY range is integrated by the exclusive wood RD-HORN with no use of ANY FRONTAL PHASER. Total system sensitivity is 110 dB/1 Watt/1 meter with sound levels (6 meters) much higher than live concert pressure levels without distorsion........" Enjoy the music Christos Skaloumbakas A.C.A.

I am not sure what are you driving at with your reply. If you are selling equipment, we fascillitate sales requests in our web-site. You are very much welcomed to apply!!! Christos Skaloumbakas
