  1. nice for somebody to rehab or just listen to as-is.
  2. WTH. This is awful. Dave and I had fun talking about really old 4 and 8-bit computers and associated technology. He knew his stuff. I never got to meet him but was hoping to someday. code
  3. Wow. Looks like the bass port mod too. Ugly, but how do they sound?
  4. For some reason, your photo didn't attach right. Here is is for those interested:
  5. Yikes, those old horns got melted or something. Might be good for new wave music, though, or maybe some laid-back jazz.
  6. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/klipsch-heritage-listening-event-at-the-sound-room-tickets-153851725653 Friday and Saturday, 21st and 22nd in Chesterfield.
  7. I'm gonna put my Heresys on my La Scalas and put those on the Klipschorns. Be right back, gotta raise my living room ceiling.
  8. Just got my 2nd Pfizer shot early this morning. So far, I feel completely fine.
  9. Maybe you'll get to hear another one someday, one that won't break either of our backs.
  10. Looks like I posted that pic once already in this thread and I didn’t remember. Sorry.
  11. Was originally my daughter’s dog, then my wife’s, and now mine. Great dog.
  12. Dr. AIX posted a recent article about MQA: https://www.realhd-audio.com/?p=7258 If you want to just skip to the video he references:
  13. we also heard some norah jones, keb mo, steely dan, daft punk, the omnific, several by the aristocrats (guthrie govan), some steven wilson, and some dire straits. all wonderful, dynamic, and spectrally rich.
  14. It was a great time. The build quality is excellent, though I had one nit with that and we laughed about it - I would have used SpeakOn connectors. So for the indoor listening test, I have to be honest, I was pretty astounded at how well @MookieStl's subs performed. They held up the bottom end really well, easily on par with the THTLP at the volumes we were listening to, which was moderate to quite loud (tough to have a conversation at 30' back). Those LAB-15's were barely moving. Way way less than I thought they would in a ported-box design... even given that the xmax is low, I still expected more travel in that design topology than what I saw for the output we were hearing. We didn't get a chance to flip everything around and aim it out the dock door and crank it way up, and I even told @MookieStl that that would be the real test - to see how well they can hold up when really tasked with lots of power outside. He agreed and is planning to do that test soon enough. code
  15. Yes. If you have the room, I think the THTLP is *fantastic* with La Scalas. I’m building a T45, also by Bill Fitzmaurice, but don’t have listening opinions on that pairing yet.
  16. I sound like a broken record but a horn-loaded sub is what you want.
