  1. With patience and research Forte I; Forte II; or even a set of Chorus speakers may be had in that price zone. I even recently just missed (by 15 min, boo hoo) a set of Cornwalls for $450 here in Phoenix. E-Bay, Craigslist and Letgo are sources to consider, but with local pick up, as shipping is difficult to arrange and quite expensive. Also local allows for auditioning the product, to avoid mis-representation of performance and condition. There are also deals to be had from forum members, who can be relied upon for accurate descriptions of performance and appearance of items. Some, even most, are offered at below Craigslist or E Bay market value and have performance enhancing updates/upgrades. Welcome to the forum, and good luck with your search! JBCODD P. S. I have only mentioned heritage models because I have no experience with newer Klipsch issues. Others will have more suggestions regarding newer models.
  2. Pix of garden artwork. Various termaters, peppers and black mission figs. All locally grown. Real local. My backyard, even.
  3. Welcome to the forum. I'm rather new to this action myself, but the site is replete with opinions and expert advice. You will undoubtedly receive lots of both soon.

    What I Got Today!

    I saw these guys (ELP) in Madison Square Garden and at Roosevelt Field back inna 70's. Awesome shows.
  5. Matt: Thanks for your interest. I found a complete set from an enthusiast on Audiokarma for $30.00, delivered. How is the hot rod? JBCODD
  6. I recently moved two la Scalas in an old (1997) Isuzu Rodeo. JBCODD
  7. I'll go for it if Datacom doesn't "Seal de Deal".

    What I Got Today!

    A nice pair of 1978 la scala's with Crites crossovers and updated tweeters. While they are not the Forte I's I was looking for, I think I'll be able to soldier on.
  9. At the current exchange rate the price is $1500 US dollars. Plus delivery (food for the dog sled.) Not sure how long this method of commerce takes, but I know they can get from Settler's Bay to Nome in under nine days.
  10. C'mon. I know you've heard of wi-if. If you go get all Kerouac on uss there had better be some pictures.
  11. Holy belladonna alkaloids, Batman!
  12. Mmmmmm. Mmmmmm. Thumper onna bumper. Or the urban variety: poodles wit noodles.

  14. Prime" BTDubs: Mirror Man; Clear Spot; Trout Mask Replica and The Spotlight Kid are just as good.
  15. "All The Young Dudes"
  16. Don't know what the reserve Was, but they are up to $1500 and above the reserve.
  17. Have these been on here before? http://www.ebay.com/itm/KLIPSCH-KLIPSCHORN-SPEAKERS-/112343106022?hash=item1a282bc1e6:g:-J0AAOSw4CFY0Yok Jbcodd
  18. I usually go with some F Zappa: " G-Spot Tornado " from the Yellow Shark , played by the Ensemble Modern of Frankfurt or " Big Swifty " from Wazoo, disc one.
  19. "Everybody's rockin JBL's and Polks, Some are ampin' wit Yamaha's; Others are kicking wit Douks. Everybody's in despair, Every girl and boy. But when P dub's Klipschorns get here Everybody jump for joy."
  20. Could be truth in labeling. The melamine additives Could make yer lips edematous and erythematous, thus the "Red Labial"
  21. Gotta agree wit da satellite man. On both posts. I don't have an Aeropress, just a regular French press. Used with freshly ground arabica beans it can't be beat. I favor Colombian Supremo, or Guatemalan beans. Most tasty.
  22. Hey, Senor Baron: How is the crabbing down there? Was stationed at Walter Reed back in the day (86-91) and loved to take the kids to Solomons Island to fish and catch Maryland blues from the dock. But the last time I was there (2015) the pickings were pretty slim. JBCODD
