Voted Best Joke in Ireland 2006
John O'Reilly hoisted his beer and said, "Here's to spending the rest of me life, between the legs of me wife!"
That won him the top prize at the pub for the best toast of the night!
He went home and told his wife, Mary, "I won the prize for the Best toast of the night."She said, "Aye, did ye now. And what was your toast?"
John said, "Here's to spending the rest of me life, sitting in church beside me wife."
"Oh, that is very nice indeed, John!" Mary said.
The next day, Mary ran into one of John's drinking buddies on the street corner.
The man chuckled leeringly and said, "John won the prize the other night at the pub with a toast about you, Mary."She said, "Aye, he told me, and I was a bit surprised myself. You know, he's only been there twice in the last four years. Once he fell asleep, and the other time I had to pull him by the ears to make him come."

You are diabolical. Good job.

And think about it...how often have you ever
read a marketing brochure that told you that this or that product is
most likely not necessary in your particular application? 'Nough said.
Not often. But there is Rega, who tells buyers of its turntables not to use record cleaning machines.

You make a good point. More precisely, the listener is going to suffer because the sound waves are not being allowed to frolic and cavort the way the original Intelligent Designer intended because some clown has blocked the port with a towel.

You guys fit right in with some of the audiogon ads I've seen, where there will be a perfect unit except for a 1cm scratch at the back by the power cord, and the guy will knock the condition down to 8/10.
It's not much different than cars. Some people wash them every week. I used to wash mine only if I was ready to paint it, but now I wash it once or maybe even twice a year.

Obviously if a speaker is designed with a port, and then you plug up the port, the sound is going to suffer.

Heckuva webpage, Greg.
Not Klipsch related, but that must be very handy having a pit in your garage.

ya cant make a better looking horn than the 402. I'm just in for a smaller one!
Bill,
I know I can't make a better looking horn than the 402, but I'm confident you can.

Did this thread go down the tubes or what?

I think if you hit its resonant frequency it'll start vibrating like there's no tomorrow, develop fractures, and break apart. Now you could put it back together again with 200 mile per hour tape, but that would be tacky.

hey michael,
are you going to build a pair of lf bins? COOOOOOOL BEANS!!
now whatever will you do for a top horn........hmmmmmmmmm......know anybody with horns.......
have a blessed day,

How about Michael trades you 6 pairs of Cornwalls for a pair of Jubilees?
-
Heck yes. Very high frequencies (out to 20KHz and beyond) are far far over rated in importance.
Bill, you have some work to do to make a horn prettier than the K-402. [

Can't say it makes any sense to use blue jeans material for speaker wires but, as Mike likes to say, WTFDIK?

That description was lifted from the Forum. It was originally from "Jim" 5/1/01.
A pair of these was offered on eBay in January of 2006, and the first picture in the current auction is IDENTICAL to the one that was up for auction back then. So, it's either the same guy offering them up for sale again with the same photos, or, for the more scam-careful people among us, it could be someone saved the original photos and is using them illegitimately now.
We certainly don't have enough evidence to accuse anyone of anything. But with only one feedback, I'd want to pay for these at pickup only.

Maybe it's because the whole factory has to stop everything to try to make sense of those Jubilee drawings for Dean?

I understand now, you just wanted someone to agree with you.

Travis,
I'm thinking lawsuit. What do you think? Maybe mental anguish, suffering, and loss of consortium for starters?

I also ordered a pair of SS Monarchy Monoblocks this week after reading a positive review from Mobile Homeless.
Didn't Kel rave about the Monarchy amps back in 2000 or 2001? Are you that far behind on your Forum reading?
-
You have to, don't you? It always opens up at page one for me and I have to scroll and click hundreds of times to get to the end. Takes roughly an hour.

I agree with you, Canyonman. I'm not sure what Joe is looking for. As a SET owner he must be aware of its qualities, and he's heard others, and several people have already told him in this thread the overall scheme of things.
WHAT IS IT YOU WANT, JOE?
Are you looking for advice on OTL?
-
Okay, my opinion is that no SET amps are worth owning. They have nothing going for them.

Question for Bodcaw Boy (Roy)

mas,
I think what the Bad Cowboy is trying to say is that unless you are willing to buy a theaterful of Klipsch cinema speakers, he's not going to supply you with the info.
Also, keep in mind what Dean said back on page 10:
