  1. Hi  😁

    The French are generally chauvinistic, but I like other teams. At the moment in France we have a very good team with exceptional players, Mbappé in particular is very strong and Pogba is brilliant, the rest of the team is also at the top. In my opinion I think the Belgians are among the favorites, I like this team, the other very strong ones are Germany, Italy and France.

    Tonight France - Switzerland: There are 6 of us at home and tonight there are 5 supporters for Switzerland and 1 for France, me

  2. Hi,

    The black label is from 2019, the brown one is from 2010.
    The pairing of the pairs is indicated on the box, but not on the enclosure itself, indicating which enclosure number corresponds to the boxed enclosure.

     

    example of the pairing of my CWIII, Number 15180015 matche with 15180016, and vice versa 15180016 matching with 15180015

  3. Hi,

    I finally received this PAS Audio 2002PCA, I ordered it at the end of April and it was very long, because we had to wait for the craftsman to weld and assemble this beautiful amp by hand, so about 10 weeks of waiting . I think he had difficulties getting electronic components, moreover the amplifier is currently unavailable for three months at Thomman.

     

    For the moment I am discovering the amp, but already I can say that it works very well. It is wonderfully quiet, in the speakers there is no hissing or snoring. The toroidal transformer makes almost no noise, even with the ear glued to the facade the typical sound of toric is very very very low, barely audible. For the sound I wait a bit, but already the bass is formidable and the power impressive. In short, I am happy.

    The only 3-sided album I’m familiar with is the old Johnny Winter one.  The explanation for that album being 3-sided was that there weren’t enough songs for a double album, but if they crammed them all onto a single disc, they would have to compromise the recording level, and the volume would be too low as a result.

     

    Is that why this album of yours is like this?

    I have the QOTSA Villains album with 3 sides. Be careful there are drawings on the D side, so above all, do not put a high-end, fragile cartridge on this kind of engraving, you risk breaking the point.

     

    And in addition there are several versions.

  5. Hi

     

    It seems that the 17 is not part of the date, but of the product code, moreover we find it on the line above and the other AL4 also have this 17.

     

    LSABR17 = LS AL4 BIR RAW 17 and after date 0237 and after serial number 0002

     

    So if we start from this principle your date would be 02 for the year 2002 and 37 for the week.

     

    It remains to be seen what means what is also found on the other AL4s pictured.

     

     

    here is for example a black AL4 from 2005, still with this famous 17

    2424739-b87ab48e-klipsch-la-scala-al4.jp

     

     

     

    we are progressing and as dwilawyer asks what are your desire for a change in this La Scala?

     

  6. Hi @fabien1303

    As @dwilawyer indicated I am French and I can maybe help you if needed.

    It seems to me that dwilawyer gave you a way to find the year of your AL4.

    Good forum 😄

     

    Salut Fabien

    Comme l'a indiqué dwilawyer je suis français et je peux peut-être t'aider si besoin.

    Il me semble que dwilawyer t'a donné un moyen de trouver l'année de tes AL4.

    Bon forum 😄

  7. Sur le second lien il y a les correspondances, et puis il faut surfer sur le net pour trouver des infos avec les parts numbers, car se sont des transistors avec des réfs spécifiques à Mc 😉

     

    For example for 132188 : https://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/replacement-output-transistors-for-mac-4300v.217560/

     

    But the opinion of the pros is to simply put original McIntosh 132188, so the references of the parts list are sufficient to order from Mc

    Hello mustang_flht, just a small remark, it does not seem to have heard that closing some of the vents made it possible to get more bass. It allowed me to further tighten the bass and not to go down lower in these.

    But I will still try what you specified

    Hi

     

    it is not that there is more bass, but that the tuning of the bass-reflex vent is located lower in frequency when a vent is blocked: here for example 44hz in green with the 3 free vents and 36 Hz in red with 1 plugged vent on CWIII (note this is a simulation, the reality may be slightly different). On the other hand, there is less level between around 45Hz and 100Hz and more between 30 and 45Hz, -3db at 50Hz, but around + 6db at 30Hz.

     

     

    En français : ce n'est pas qu'il y a plus de grave, mais que l'accord de l'évent bass-reflex est situé plus bas en fréquence lorsqu'on bouche un évent : ici par exemple 44hz en vert avec les 3 évents libres et 36 Hz en rouge avec 1 évent bouché sur CWIII (attention c'est une simulation, la réalité est peut-être légèrement différente). En revanche il y a moins de niveau entre environ 45Hz et 100Hz et plus entre 30 et 45Hz, -3db à 50Hz, mais environ +6db à 30Hz.

     

    Mieux qu'un long discours, les courbes

  9. Traditionally, here in Europe, cabinetmakers used fish glue ansd other type. For example to make marquetry, bows, violin making ... Often the glue came from Russia where there was a lot of estugeons, they used swim bladders rich in collagen

    Today this high-end glue is manufactured in small quantities and is used for prestige cabinetmaking and for the restoration of antique furniture.
