  1. Looking to move a pair of Fortes from anywhere near central Florida to anywhere remotely close to Dallas. In other words, both sender and recipient will meet you where it is convenient.
  2. I will take some close-ups showing any flaws later today.
  3. I have the Fortes you want. Since billybob and I are practically neighbors, I should sell them to him at an attractive price and he can trade them for your Chorus.
  4. Not exactly what he said...(macro) inflation did not exist before corrupt government. [EDIT: Political propaganda removed, we have enough trouble as it is]
  5. Occasionally, when I see a topic go over ten pages that I am not particularly interested in and consider to likely be a pretty mundane discussion, I drop in on the last page to see how far the game of telephone has wandered from the title of the original post. I must say, you guys have outdone yourselves on this one. Bravo.
  6. Those are Zu Omen Dirty Weekend. So far, they do not appear to be very finicky about placement, which is quite a change from the Fortes that normally occupy that space. Nice strong center image. I know of the show only from the album. The bands around the Khorns are ratchet straps holding false corners in place on the side next to the window. This will suffice until I make something more permanent. I may build fully enclosed backs but will not permanently attach them, as these are nearly perfect and I want to preserve them for the owner that follows me.

    I suggest you find an optometrist who is less prone to hyperbole. If she is startled by those numbers, you would do well to get another exam by someone more professional. If you can pass the eyesight exam at the DMV, you can see well enough to drive.
  8. Double check your fire insurance policy and get that Phase Linear gear.
  9. Thanks. Actually, anyone who responds to this in the affirmative, I would like to know what they were listening to. I am always on the lookout for interesting tracks.
  10. Nice. I will be looking for this amp in the Garage Sale forum next week. If I may inquire, what were you listening to when you experienced this magic?
  11. One local to me but he probably wants to sell everything together. https://tampa.craigslist.org/hil/ele/d/riverview-klipsch-carver-ps-audio/7319130282.html
  12. The field of tube amps at or below $5k must number in the hundreds. It would be difficult to convince me to let go of that kind of spare change on a particular piece if I couldn't find a single person on the planet who owns one. But I may be using a different set of criteria to make my buying decisions.
  13. Roon ROCK up and running.
  14. Why was this thread moved from 2-Channel Home Audio? The subtitle to that forum area is "Talk about stereo amp and speaker matching here." It would appear that the question at hand here is exactly that.
  15. From what I can see in those shadowy photos, this stuff does not appear to be up to the standard I would expect from BDI.
  16. I have that beat. The guy I bought my turntable from showed me the L100s he had re-veneered. The guy he had do the work covered up the original veneer with walnut...Formica. And he made matters worse by easing the edges so much that I would have to do considerable work to fix it.
