  1. 20 years and that is up just like it is for the 402. Now with mumps Klipsch is protected even though other companies have done the same basic thing before. I wonder if these new ones are as seriously brittle as the OEM 510's are.
  2. The stuff passed by Congress in 1913 is what happened. Just takes time to make it all work real well for the guys on top.
  3. Have to disagree with this. One 15" woofer in my S-MWM's is WAY more than the 904 bass bins I have in my shop right now. Side by side comparison and the 904's lose and not by just a little. Now 4-15" woofers might get there but the sound is muddier and yes I have some 415 bass bins here that I have compared them to. I think the 415's would have greater db output perhaps but I will never know since I am not turning either all the way up.
  4. This guy from close to New Orleans has been making them for some time. I suspect the workmanship will leave something lacking and the dimensions may be OK. Looks like real Baltic Birch though. I would be curious to talk to a past customer but somehow these people can't be found.
  5. Actually a correctly built cabinet with one 15" woofer will beat these things silly and go down below 30hz full output doing it.
  6. My first year with Chrysler (1972) I was making $9 something an hour. People in Detroit were buying new cars, had nice houses and were taking vacations and saving for their kids college on that hourly wage and the wife did not have to work.
  7. Pro gear is often abused so loose wires, fried drivers, frozen voice coils, burned up parts on crossovers you name it and it could be there. You buy old pro gear you need to open them up and check it all out.
  8. Apparently by the time it got to Putnam county where 19 died it was an F4.
  9. Hi Claude, There is a reason that same basic bass bin has been around for 30 years.
  10. The difference between the two is not trivial. 904 wins in a big way.
  11. The 904 beats up that 396. Not even in the same league though both are pro. That 904 bass bin is the entry level to great pro Klipsch and then there are various horns that go on top.
  12. Knew a guy who moved from here because of lung problems. They ended up in New Mexico at higher elevations and last I hear they like the mild climate and lack of humidity. Rural of course.
  13. There is real natural beauty out there. Cross country skiing in Sequoia and the Redwoods and the desert around Ridgecrest going up into the mountains. I have fond memories of that. Funny you said that as today I was at my daughters house in Nashville discussing things and that topic came up. I do not ever want to leave here and wont while I am living is my hope. Spring is starting here and every day is new and different visually. Oh and the new stuff is not the latest graffiti!!
  14. How bout if it was a narcissist club? 😉
  15. I know what you mean. I did not lock my shop up until about seven years ago when just to many new people moved into the area and we started having a few breakins in the area. My immediate neighbors regarded me as the newcomer for some time but after 30 years here this is no longer so. Hunt from my front deck or shoot Tannerite and no one says a thing. Dead end road and if you are back here and we don't recognize the car we watch.
  16. I still play "I'm The Slime" from him on occasion and you are so right. It is the perfect summation of PC mindset indoctrination efforts by the public education system and DNC syncophants like CNN ABC MSBSNBC. Truly way ahead of his time with this song. I was thinking about this thread yesterday and contemplating the concept of the frog in a pan of water with the heat slowly rising does not leave and is cooked. Drop that same frog in a pan of hot water and he does his best to leap out. I am gross and perverted I'm obsessed 'n deranged I have existed for years But very little had changed I am the tool of the Government And Industry too For I am destined to rule And regulate you I may be vile and pernicious But you can't look away I make you think I'm delicious With the stuff that I say I am the best you can get Have you guessed me yet? I am the slime oozing out From your TV set You will obey me while I lead you And eat the garbage that I feed you Until the day that we don't need you Don't go for help, no one will heed you Your mind is totally controlled It has been stuffed into my mold And you will do as you are told Until the rights to you are sold "That's right, folks.. Don't touch that dial!" Well, I am the slime from your video Oozin' along on your livingroom floor I am the slime from your video Can't stop the slime, people, look at me go
  17. Well there are those who know what works based on what societies thrived and flourished and grew throughout history and those that that failed and can tell you why. That is presenting evidence with case studies VS indoctrination which states this thing that has never been proven to work is better. One side teaches critical examination of the evidence and think for yourself and the other side teaches do not look behind the curtain and do what we tell you to do. There is a serious difference between being taught and being tricked.
  18. Great straw man comment. But yes when the contrarian thinks the Venezuala model which has never worked is OK he is indoctrinated. I don't understand why these guys think this time around it will work when it never has. About contrarians. Since conservatives are the real minority out there now are they A, enlightened or B, indoctrinated.
  19. Want me to bring some of my mild hot sauce?
  20. That mid section is only 18" across so you can't fit big horns in there.
  21. Recap those crossovers and use a 68uf Audyn poly cap from Parts Express for the woofer circuit, not the electrolytic ones. Every Chorus I get is recapped and yes all those old mylar caps are no good. Best cheap most dollar effective Chorus upgrade is recapping.
  22. They will take your children from you and make them into strange things. The indoctrination is severe out there unless you can find a good private school which is of course more $$$$$. Good you mention this Bosco and I had thought about doing the same. My two brothers went to UM in Ann Arbor just when the femin----s got rolling. One brother escaped with his mind intact and the other Dad said he did not know after six months. This aberration in my one brother stayed with him all his life and while Dad had much to discuss with my one brother and I the nutso one was so far out there that there was no reasoning. We could talk and debate and be civil about it but nutso would immediately be angry as vitriol poured forth with scorn and sadly he was molded by bad PC teachers and never recovered. Ann Arbor was bad for it's day and I cant imagine what schools are like out there in CA this day and time.
  23. There is no teacher like real experience. You can benefit from that gained by others or indulge in personal research.
  24. Yes indeed and where this lives next to this in sunny LA
