    I know a lot of guys using these as LCR behind AT screens in mid to large HT spaces. These are true cinema series. The manufacturer supplies tons of free information on their products, including these. Want free software for you planning and design? Got that. Need tech sheets? Got you covered. Want polar plots? All there.
  2. Finally cash in some of those solid silver bars you've collected? Interested to learn what difference you hear. I just got these today for my rig. Stage worthy stuff from the same manufacturer as Pro-co, Rapco etc.. Getting the associated 95LB amplifier moved into my custom built wood rack is the only real concern. Only 3.5" clearance and not wanting a single scratch on either the rack or the amp. Working alone / without handles.
  3. In which specific frequency was it 10X? Was that before or after you moved your head 6" in relation to your room?
  4. $15,120 for La Scala's. https://www.sothebys.com/en/buy/auction/2021/from-the-vault-property-from-the-grateful-dead-and-friends/hells-angels-party-stereo-system-including-the
  5. That looks like the bottom of my sofa.
  6. 150' Pro co speaker cable
  7. Time has little effect on wood finishing techniques. Resin derived from Indian Lac bugs has been used for 1000's of years. Waxes have been used for many 100's. No need to reinvent the wheel. I understand the desire of audiophiles to always chase the dragon, but wood is wood. When it comes to wood finishing, encouraging others to deviate from the status quo just isn't being very helpful. Highly recommended reading material list below First, from the foremost recommended and prolific author https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08Y5VK3ZG/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tkin_p1_i0 Here are the official publications, in PDF, the OP was referring to.

  8. 47 more added today. I need to put together an accurate count and a full list, but I'm up to about 175 original theatrical posters covering the past 50 years. No fakes, all from solid sources to ensure authenticity. Only started collecting them this month. Pretty good start though.
  9. Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch, Wales Here, let me help you with that http://www.llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.co.uk/soundfiles/llandad4.wav
  10. Wasn't aware my speakers needed an oil change. At what intervals should I change the fluid? I have like 40 speakers. How long would that take?
  11. Window tint. They make all kinds of it. You can keep out as much light as you want, but those birds, those darn BIRDS 🎶 🐦 https://www.amazon.com/stores/VELIMAX/VELIMAX/page/F40D68B7-D765-41DD-8132-06D902B900E9
  12. Maybe,but only if you're not if a Klipsch speaker scratching cat. 😵
  13. Sold 'em for Crypto and plan to use that to buy an Island.
  14. Not allowed to say here anymore. It was an oldie but a goodie. Sorry, I just WOKE up.
  15. Send me a PM with your contact info and where you hang out at. We can still be friends.
  16. Driving age in the state of Wisconsin is 18. Probationary driving is allowed at 16 with restrictions. For most, the way they sound remains the same, unless they are very young or very old. Drivers are usually not good until they have some years of experience, but gradually, they do get better. Age is beneficial for most drivers though.
  17. Water will raise the grain (tiny wood fibers stand up), so stay away from using water-based for cleaning. There's nothing wrong with adding a water-based wood finish product. Non-yellowing. Dries fast and clear. Ultra low sheen. Just prep correctly. Then you can clean them with a damp cloth, murphy oil soap, etc.
  18. What kind of WOKE censorship cancel culture crap did I just witness here now? HERE! Now I can't even talk about the music or movies I use my Klipsch speakers to listen to? Sorry, I thought that's what speakers were made for. What about the names of films? Can I even speak here about some of their tongue-in-cheek titles? Really, I'm on another international forum with over 100,000 members, and there is ample opportunity there for these type of discussions. Cancel culture, censorship, and editing is something discussed on that site daily. There are literally tens of thousands of covers posted for anyone to see and discuss. It's called art. It exists. Stop destroying it.
  19. Depends on where you put it?
  20. Whoa! 👐 You took me all wrong. In my post I was referring to many of my forum friends who posted something that resulted in their sudden and immediate dismissal. 🚫 Not the meaning as you took it, being something in a post causing me to lose friendship. I was talking about real meaningful friendships being stripped away, and what I'm doing to find a cure from suffering more of those kind of losses.
