I think [mention=12530]jimjimbo[/mention] has some.

I like this one. I would enjoy attempting a side-channel attack with an oscilloscope across a series R in the power lead to see if I could see a possible difference in good vs bad digits, then possibly leverage that knowledge. It’d require access to a working model too to gather data. Also, I might try an inductive coupler over the keypad to see if I could learn anything about what the micro is doing while trying digits. Just a thought.

Do you feel like I do?

Beautiful! (Better than pretty,@schu). Lol.

I had to wait 30 years to get mine. @scallywagger77 speaks the truth.

More like 450, NE.

That’s what I meant to say. Lol.

1973 walnut Pretty!

I have a couple if anyone just has to have one. $30 each because that’s what I have in them.

If it isn’t too personal,@Marvel , how old are you (roughly)? Just curious.

Cheap netgear stuff. I cannot find the client ap isolation settings by any name, and frankly, I don’t have time to research it more right now. UPNP is on, but that’s just half the battle. I even enabled the guest network and moved things over to it (both the phone and the chromecasts), but still no luck. Both units behave identically. I turned UPNP off again and disconnected everything and went to bed. I’m too old for this.

PM sent! Thank you!

I want one too and have been unsuccessful so far. My colleagues were at CES and I told them to get me one at the Klipsch booth. They came back to STL and said there were no brochures. I felt like I wasn't getting the truth. Oh well.

I have a couple if anyone wants one. $30 each because that’s what I have in them. They are not compatible with my WiFi and I don’t want to make the changes they suggest to potentially make them work. PM me if interested.

I'm hoping that @Chief bonehead will comment on this.

I think the forum got changed out.

Ya know, when you power this thing up, sure looks like a laser shining out of the 1/8” hole for a bit. I haven’t tried it yet, but I think it is a TOSLINK optical out connector too. If it is, you can use your higher-quality DAC with it for even cleaner audio.

Dave, The thing I'd check for is the presence of microphonics. Lightly flicking a tube with your finger may produce an audible result in the output if the tube is really doing something. I'm hoping that someone with a ton more experience will comment on this.

Be careful. I was excited about this inexpensive amp and told @Hornographic about it, and he pointed me to an online forum warning about potential fakes. Not this model, but apparently someone ordered a tube amp from China, took it apart, and discovered that the output transformer was hollow. Inside was a small solid-state amp board and associated regulators. There was a filament supply to light the tubes up, but no high-voltage supply anywhere. The audio path was wired in some way to use the tubes as path components. The tubes did nothing, other than when you removed a tube, the audio stopped for that channel. I'm now curious to see if anyone has disassembled one of these enough to see the socket wiring, check for high voltage, etc. Mind you, it was not this model (I don't think so, anyway), but if this is true it isn't cool. Edit: One of the sites talking about it is here: http://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/nobsound-fake-hybrid-tube-amp.706645/

Harp guitar... first time I ever saw that, it was Michael Hedges playing it (RIP). He was awesome. His was 10 string, I think.

This seems gray enough that you should probably ask Klipsch directly.

History in the making? Lol. What are you trying to do?

I agree with the above. Maybe there’s a ham club near you; those folks will have many members that can solder properly and help out with checkout of the circuit or that can teach you how to solder.

One of the folks at Klipsch did that.... https://www.klipsch.com/blog/mini-klipsch-la-scala-speakers

Can I tag along?
