  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

    Nothing wrong with a little Road Kill for dinner. Ate a lot of venison as a child. Just need to be sure there is no antifreeze in it.

    I once ran a buck out of the brush that got hit running across the highway. Driver tagged it and took it with him.

     Mmmmmm. Mmmmmm. Thumper onna bumper. Or the urban variety: poodles wit noodles.

    Could be truth in labeling. The melamine additives Could make yer lips edematous and erythematous, thus the "Red Labial"

    When I use cream, I just go all out with heavy whipping cream. Gotta warn you, once you try it you'll never go back to half and half.

    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.

    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.

  12. Not Affiliated

     

    Got home from a brutal 12 hr shift at the factory. Running on about 22 hrs awake (fairly normal for a Wed/Thurs).See my wife off to work, decide to check Craigslist for some Forte's (cheap ones fit my budget). Find the following post:

     

    http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/ele/6045363894.html

     

    WHOA!!! Looks like Cornwall I for $450!!!! Slightly distressed, but right in my wheelhouse! Send an e- mail and get ready for bed. I pad dings, look at e- mail, and seller says may be seen before 1300 today, and there has been lots of interest. (Sorry, retired military) Call Muldoon and say I'm of my way. (Hope they fit in the Pimpmobile ((2000 Volvo S-700)))

      Hit the ATM. BOOGIE.   Hit traffic onna 101. Schvitzin'. Get to Indian School Rd and 82nd street. Realize I don't have the address. Call Muldoon and ask for address. No answer. Turn on street on Google maps and park.

     

        Wait.

     

        Wait.

     

    Call again. No answer. Grind teeth.

     

    Wait.

     

     Guy walks up to car and sez "Are you the guy from Chandler? I just sold them. So many people called I didn't know who was who."

     

        Le Wah!!!!

     

        Oh, well I still have a lovely wife of > 30 yrs, who puts up with my varied manias and five children who are good citizens and six grandchildren who think that I'm OK.

     

        And a line on some Forte's I can afford.

     

        Le Wah.

     

         Any how there are still many components for any in the Phoenix metro area who may be interested, and if the price on the Cornwall speakers is an indication, there are bargains to be had.

     

      Happy Hunting
