    That whole LP is alright!

    I put it in your LP thread a few years ago when I got it through the ultrasound and found it was a good listen!


    I just remembered something 

    My recollection is that he was Jewish and he sang about Jesus

    Had to go into town today, and these guys have been in the ride since before the trip Monday.

    Bluegrass breaking all the rules? Bluegrass tweaked to progressive? Bluegrass on Steroids?

    It's an enjoyable listen to break through the rainy days!


    Even though I liked Punch Brothers the style would be more akin to Bluegrass/ Avantgarde

    Somebody told me that here a couple years ago.

    Think they said it was because of the front page of that now messed up newspaper. Sounds plausible, and it isn't clear on the yt vid so I'll take that as confirmation it was the reason!! 


    ‘Ahh 

    Must have read the same post and recollected it

    Not what I would normally to play first with new equipment.

    It would have been a Pink Floyd LP of course.

    No problem: The Klipsch KP-301 was made to ROCK!!

    Was that cover banned for something?

  8. Wife is at work and I am rocking it up (LOUD) with an album that I is so good and I like every song on it 

    Be dammed the neighbours 🤘

     

    What is your favourite song? 
     

    However this may be my last spin for a while as I have a stubborn blocked ear without any pain

    Doctor said it is a Eustachian tube disfunction and it will pass on its own in a few weeks (I don’t believe him) 

    ‘Anyway to explain how it happened -  while swallowing water it went the wrong way and I had a massive coughing fit and that in turn blocked the ear canal (Yes I have tried several manual clinical methods to pop the ear to no avail)

     

    Artist - Black Sabbath 

    Title - Paranoid

    I heard Marseilles about a year ago on a local FM radio station for first time since I was in high school in the early 80s. I just picked up Face to Face album on ebay for $10. I bet they were awesome live!


    You bet they were awesome live 🤘

    But why would you need to saw the La Scala in half? You just need to remove the bottom and then place that base with bass ports on the bottom, right? As I understand it, this is a mod that can easily be reversed.

    Yes, you are right. 



    Just like this on my La Scala’s 

    Note that the crossovers have been updated since this photo was taken 


    If interested in the massive undertaking to build this crossover go to the thread on the link

    Bought me a box of french cigars

    Bought me a black beret

    Get my french from a girl next door

    Teaching me night and day

    Got me thinking 'bout the south of France

    Vis-a-vis vous

    Pack my suitcase, take a chance

    Got nothing to lose

     

    Gimme the sound of the rolling dice

    Gimme a whiskey, don't think twice

    Deal me the card that takes my blues away

    Take me away to Marseilles

     

    Fast train, jet plane, money to burn

    Don't ask no reasons why

    Drinkin' champagne, playin' cool

    Don't even have to try

    Ha, that's one of the drawings I made and posted before folks shortened the port lengths.


    ‘You did a great job on the drawing 

    I just added the measurement's for others to follow, but I did a few more internal modifications to make them better to my personal preference 

    By the way my LS with the bass reflex mod still rock 🤘

    Foam

    Both versions of the LS benefit from a 2' x 2' x 1" piece of foam behind the woofer. It really smooths out things above 100hz.


    I had a similar modification but with the bass reflex box attached ( noting that I did not read the above information prior to my idea ) 

    Just tinkering with different aerodynamic ideas and I ended up using a cone made of styrofoam and glued it to the magnet of the bass driver 

     

    This may or may not work on a standard LS and as noted it’s in place in conjunction with the bass reflex box

    Heinz,

    Yes, the simple way is to make a box about 10 inches tall with ports.

     

    Four in. diameter x 7 inches seems to be the most popular

     

     

    Are you referring to the bass reflex port? 
    This is the configuration and measurements that I posted of the bass reflex unit on my LS
