  1. What do you mean "what do I mean"? Put brown grills in sunlight for 25 years and they fade to a grayish green color. Never had UV protection on that style cloth. They all do this when exposed to direct sunlight. Also those woofer surrounds have something funky going on. At least that is what I see. What do you know about them?

    This has happened to me on more than one occasion. It is happening to me again at this very moment. What should I do?

     

    I have tried to buy this (insert item here) immediately.

    Told the is was on vacation.

     

    I offered to paypay to secure the sale.

    Told the seller does not have the capability or preference to do so at the present time.

     

    Offered to make an appointment at the sellers earliest convenience.

    Told a day and time and we finalized the price. Commitment was made verbally by both parties.

     

    Since then, I have received (2/3) phone calls from the seller.

    Both times were his attempt to extort more money from me above our commitment set on previous phone calls, due to unprecedented demand and offers from various sell sites.

     

    What should I do?

    How do I prevent this from happening to me again in the future?

    If you are the seller, how would you protect your buyers from this kind of experience from your sale?

    OK. You store it. I will let you know when I need to strip it down. You can swing by then. 👅

  4. Undervalued for the past 15 years. Exceptional product for the price. Prices are only just beginning to catch up. Expect them to continue to appreciate over the next several years. $750 is only average. $500 in parts alone. Add $50-$100 for walnut. Condition and location are important factors in current pricing trends.

  5. Criterion collection 

    Especially happy about getting Bruce Lee's Greatest Hits on release day. Includes all 5 films w/4k restorations.  First time since 1993 laserdisk the 99 minute original theatrical version of Enter the Dragon has been seen on home video with original soundtrack.

    did wider shelves on my samson rack using the same birch solid wood............Now need to oil the shelves

    I love what you did with the place. That 1.75" will have zero deflection and  proportions nicely with your hardware. Don't use the food safe mineral oil here. Non-Drying with zero build.

     

    Drying oil (BLO or Tung) schedule:

    Oil once each day for 1 week

    Oil once each week for 1 month

    Oil once each year for life

    Thanks for the feedback guys. Be great to have one of these, or one for each channel!

     

    Understood. Sure wish we lived closer to each other. Good luck with your sale.

     

     

    @314carpenter, are you still driving around the country? 

    Nope. Came home empty too. I had a few options, and missed one sale I really wanted. My wife was happy the way everything went so that is a blessing.

     

    Those subs look like they could rattle the nails loose from the studs in the walls. Are they in stock configuration from Klipsch or partial diy? What are the specs on them when given proper amplification?
