Viruses have been intentionally released into the world by humans before, for the purpose of population control. Here you can see an image taken in Australia in 1950 during such an exercise to control rabbit populations. For this reason, I do support those who are anti-vaxers. If you don't want your covid-19 vaccine that is just fine with me, cause I know that the Covid-19 virus still works great. I am glad I got my vax though.

My kids are taught about this in school. Humbling to be sure.
Post directly above yours is a perfect example of the exact kind of thought pattern that lead us to how we all got to this point. We all could have benefited from the kind of education our younger generations are only now beginning to get. Most of us completely missed the boat.

The largest economic bubble of all time is the one that NOBODY wants to talk about.

Remember the housing market crash and subsequent economic fallout out of 2008? Of course you do. Guess what then. This chart shows that the current housing market is even more overheated than the one that preceeded that crash. So what happens now? Here is some food for thought.

it's already done with the latest software update , go into Your attachments on the top right -----and you'll see 200MB
You mean this? Still waiting on that upgrade. I post many things that are meant to help others. Photos help. All of my posts are all still here. Like an archive. Tired of having to go back and delete my helpful content. Sorry, not interested in offline hosting that deletes everything they host after they close down, or insist on payment later.

Second hand speakers just got another price increase then too. Don't believe me? Just wait. I will bet you the price difference. Make your wagers now.

The poster I got was damaged along the bottom edge. I emailed Klipsch for a replacement. They said it would take 2 - 3 weeks. They did a quality check on the poster inventory and found they all had been damaged from the vendor. They had to order replacements. So, I imagine it will be relisted for sale when they get the replacement stock.
And the vendor sent them all out anyway? WAFJ
Guess we will never be getting the Limited edition signed books released before the standard book goes OOS. 😨

Not trying to change the subject, but I just got these in. I know some of you remember the days of record collecting and getting those cool album covers. Well today I got 20 Blu-ray slipcovers, all pressed and mostly mint condition, 12 of them came in plastic sleeve protectors too...
11 Disney
3 lenticular
1 gold foil
So if you got any slipcovers you want gone, DM some pics to me.

Too bad for Klipsch. SA had the worst set up two years ago. Weren't even set up until almost noon. Worst sounding room by a huge margin. Everytime I returned they were playing tracks with terrible recordings. Even Chinese brand HSU had them beat with a single 12" sub and a pair of coaxial bookshelf speakers for less than 2K ready to go out the door. I hope they bring their A-game and some new model larger speakers.
This year SA also has

Maby if it was not so far away.
It is literally held within a huge hotel and convention center. The venders rent the rooms there and you just hop from one hotel room to the next to see what the next place has set up. Chicago is kind of a big city, ya know. I am sure there is a room available to your liking. Not too far down the road from a direct flight either, JIC you weren't driving.

MIT Predicted in 1972 That Society Will Collapse This Century. New Research Shows We’re on Schedule.
Ok so maybe this isn't the stock market in the next 6 months, but this new research solidifies and vindicates my own independent thoughts and opinions that have remained with me since I was in the sixth grade. Something that some of you may want to talk to your adult children about. Or simply revert back to the standard issue choices that allow us to live at peace, for at least a little while ...

I'm still not sold on the vinyl wrap. Durability is my concern. This is a far more durable product made specifically for this type of work. I have a roll of it here right now! Grab an edge band trimmer while your shopping.

Otherwise, I would need better pics of the speaker cabinet.

Remove the vinyl and replace with oak cove molding painted with black lacquer. Trimmed to an exact fit. That's what I would do. Best wishes on your repair.

My post was only intended as a disparagement. I figured nobody would get it. You would have to read between the lines. Of course I don't really feel that any of this is a good idea.
