  1. I dunno, but she looks like she's pretty fond of that character. Even though she can't hear the differences in the various equipment that he claims he can.
  2. Cool, I didn't know you were around here, Edgar. Nice to know there are more STL folks.
  3. I may take you up on that. Gotta hook ‘em up and play Adagio for Strings while they catch fire. So sad but those got me through my wilder days. Which weren’t all that wild, come to think of it. Ugh.
  4. No love for these? I know they are ugly and dirty and all, but you'll keep them out of the dumpster and you know you'll feel good about it for helping a brother out. @MookieStl? @Hornographic? @JustAuBy? @jackrcox? @Terry Palmer? @sheltie dave?
  5. How about the rafters? I’m serious, I’d make room for them up there.
  6. Do you have a garage? La Scalas love garages too.
  7. Speaking of beer, look up Toi Sennhauser’s OPB. I love the label.
  8. Yeast can be dormant for a long time. Fermentable sugars and the right temperature can bring them back. Not sure they can go that long, though.
  9. $780 isn't bad at all if all of the drivers work and you can go pick them up. Not sure how those fronts were done because from the looks of the squawker face depth, it looks like a normal thickness. Also the peak of the bass front looks right, yet there's an overhang seemingly everywhere. If you look closely, there's a horizontal seam just below the squawker like the entire top section front was replaced. Doesn't explain the bottom, though. I'm intrigued! Did you get them, @Mh3pworth?

    Sorry, brother. Lost my mom in August and I know how it feels.
  11. Agreed. In my experimentation, it does not.
  12. Hey @sheltie dave, looks like that was your 3000th post. Congratulations! (and long time no talk)
  13. Interesting, Dave. I think I mentioned it, but my 68’s had Type A.
  14. This is the really concerning photo: That stamping on the plywood, the pencil lines, the weird reworked woofer door (terminals gone and putty added), no stamped numbers. I dunno....
  15. I agree. I’m not an expert but I agree that the bass bin looks rebuilt. Also I think the parts should all be deeply stamped with sn and I don’t see any of that. My 68’s came with type A crossovers. Not sure when a 1R was used.
  16. My Klipschorns have metal feet. Almost flush. They look kind of like quarters if I remember right.
  17. I have some La Scalas with removable casters. I thought they sounded better with the casters off, but I have a buddy that says he can’t tell the difference. When in doubt and it involves floor / wall coupling effects, I’d do what PWK decided was best. No casters.
  18. Way way overkill IMO. Make sure the horns are tightly seated into the corners of the room.
