"This forum is to blame. It's very outdated. Sorry about the hassle... Safari is the same."
Thanks Amy. The less than p greater than p solution isn't the worst, just inconvenient.
FYI to everyone. A computer expert, whose opinion I respect, STRONGLY discourages the use of IE for banking, credit card purchases, etc. He feels security issues with IE make it too risky. He suggested Chrome or Firefox.

Thanks Bruce
Are you saying that Chrome is to blame?
Your suggestion works.

Why can't I create new paragraphs?
I hit "enter" after the ? and it looked like a new paragraph was created, but after I hit "post," everything gets jammed into one line.
"Enter" was hit twice prior to the start of this sentence. I've recently switched from IE to Chrome; could that be a factor?

Glad to hear you'll be offering surprises.
Thanks to you, I've owned several h/k x30 receivers and put more into the hands of others.

I tried to paste the address in as a link, but, apparently, without success. Copying and pasting will get you to the site. But first dig out that high school Spanish textbook.

You are justifiably proud.
The US military is skimming the cream, only the best are encouraged to re-enlist, or enlist.

Are you getting that reading across the woofer terminals alone or the input terminals to whole speaker? In either case, it's no indication of a problem with the speakers. Do the speakers still work? Have you connected them to another source?
The problems with your amp and pre-amp probably lie elsewhere. Good luck.

As Gary says, you were missed in the earlier thread.
Vonski Spoke . . . now he's silent, but he'll be missed.
On a lighter note, how's the Studebaker?

At least your cereal will be fire retardant.

rennoc442 said, "Come on its only once a year!"
It's "once a year," but when you live here it's all summer. Yesterday afternoon it took me three times as long as usual to get from Birmingham to Berkley because I was foolish to use Woodward. The cars, lawn chairs and gawkers were out in force. It was heavier than the first few official Cruises.
Every nice weekend all summer is a mini Cruise. The muscle cars were lined up to pay >$8/gal. for 100+ octane racing gas at the Citgo last weekend.
I like cars, but you can only enjoy so many Vettes, Cobra (replicas), GTOs (Ferrari or Pontiac) and, yes, even 442s. You can't throw a dead cat without hitting a 57 Chevy, W-30, Hemi 'Cuda, or the like. It's getting so the rat rods and odd ball cars are more interesting than the pristine classics.
Many businesses along Woodward (including the closest branch of my bank) will be closed on Saturday 8/18 rather than fight the Cruise traffic. Now their parking lots are taken over every evening by cruisers and Cruise watchers.
-
That's interesting. Almas carried Klipsch for decades. Then a place up Woodward carried Klipsch, but it closed recently. Perhaps Almas is filling the void.
Did you enjoy drivng among all the Cobras, Vettes, hot rods, etc., as the Woodward Dream Cruise gears up?

I changed my mind, I am going to have Bob build me a new pair and store the originals as is.

They do increase drag and hamper cornering though . . .

And they make for great car audio. Those boomy bass vans don't stand a chance against these.

This photo shows a network in place. The earlier photo shows a network temporarily outside so I could dial in capacitance and other network tweaks to compensate for the slight reduction in efficiency.
As I said earlier, I'd do this to any La Scalas. It's fully reversible, but who'd want to reverse it.
-
They look great. Were you able to clear the networks with the port tubes?
When I did the mod on La Scalas for the high school (see Ported La Scalas?), I had to mount the networks upside down from the tops for tube clearance.
-
PCB. Now I see what you mean by "oops."
-
"OOPS, Pyranol capacitor!!!"
Bob,
Please elaborate. Tom's a good guy.
What would you suggest for these vintage Khorns? I was thinking it might make sense to remove and preserve the original networks, to be replaced by new networks.
-
Have you contacted Klipsch? I'd replace the whole driver before I'd replace a butyl surround with foam.
-
Years ago we rented a car from Hertz with "Never-Lost" by Magellan. We then bought 2 Magellan Roadmates. When I replace those, I'll get Garmin. Don't forget, Magellan died on the way home.

It's good that Babbitt and the rest of the Funk Brothers were recognized while still alive. See Phil Collins's Going Back @

Very glad to read this.
Has your h/k 730 been restored?

Tha Paterno family should please just keep quiet.
The public got a glimpse of Paterno's true character when the University tried to appropriately ease him out a decade ago. He let his "bosses" know that they couldn't fire him.
The charade of Paterno being the "head coach" the last few years should have been embarrassing to PSU, Paterno and the Paterno family. Joe might have been the CEO of the program but he wasn't actually coaching as he strolled the sidelines without as much as a headset. At least twice he was injured because he couldn't get out of the way of his own players.
Now we know how inappropriately concerned Paterno was about the victory record. His coaching was the football equivalent of a comb-over. We know he wasn't really the coach, just as we know that Gene Keady is actually bald.
The victory total meant more to Paterno and Penn State football than the safety of Jerry's victims.

The sanctions are unbelievable. What it looks like is that they are only allowed to even keep the football program open just so that they can pay the fines. They can't compete with the handicaps of the sanctions.
This is worse than shutting the program down.
It will be interesting to see how hard Penn State fights about this. There is controversy about whether the NCAA has the authority to do all this.
If it wasn't for the money (fine), I think Penn State might just take it quietly. But the money issue might make them fight.
PSU signed a consent agreement. If they try to fight it or back out, the deal's off and the NCAA can get really tough.

Our Kenmore front loader is quiet and efficient. It uses less water and spins the clothes nearly dry to cut down on dryer time. We save on detergent, water, electricity & natural gas.
We do leave the door open when not in use to avoid MUSTY smell.
