Nice set of videos from Ortofon, Denmark

Mine is 45 years old and still works perfectly

as does my Dual turn table

 

There was nothing like this at my university. There were just boring lectures and no practice. Then I often searched on Google for check paper, plagiarism, essay, student, and used https://ca.papersowl.com/free-plagiarism-checker for help. The training could be said to be pointless. I didn't take anything away from university.

 

I don’t understand that these videos are shown at the university? If yes, then nothing in heaven.

[PWK's little blue book or am I losing my mind??? :)]

Jim,

 

You're probably the only person that could answer this question I've had for the past year or two.  I've always loved the LS since I was a kid.  I've got my LS now and am totally amazed at what's sitting here today.  I've lugged them in the past and heard them just could never afford them.  We all know you get what you pay for though. 

 

Here ya go.  WHY, as a kid, did I know I wanted Klipsch before I ever heard them?  People from Ohio back in the early 60's NEVER heard of them yet I wanted a pair since they were SOMEhow my "dream" speaker.  So I started thinking about the WHY did I gravitate to Klipsch at such an early age?  HOW did the seed get planted?

 

The only thing I remembered, or "thought" I remembered, was a book report I had to write about 1964-5.  I loved music then so I hit the school library looking for a skinny little book to write a report on.  The smaller the better so I thought speakers would work.  I started looking and found this little, I think it was blue, book written by PWK.  It wasn't a bound book more like most just something stapled together w/his beliefs supported by facts on paper MAYBE 20-30 pages long. Sure I looked at a couple others but this one made sense to me.  Logic supported by fact with his drawings and that has PWK all over it imo.

 

You ever see or know anything about something PWK might have put together and sent to high school libraries or am I totally losing my mind and over-thinking this whole thing?

Perhaps your encounter with PWK as a child played a significant role in shaping your interest in Klipsch and their products. Reading this book could cause you admiration and fascination, as it presented logical arguments and facts confirming the importance of quality sound. As a result, thinking and getting involved in a certain topic from an early age is unusual, but quite natural. My parents read a rose for emily to me as a child, now I found papersowl.com/examples/a-rose-for-emily/ to study it. I mean that all habits are instilled in us. Perhaps it was an innate interest, the influence of the environment, or just a coincidence of circumstances. It is important to value your interests and follow them, especially if they bring you joy and satisfaction. Feel free to explore and deepen your knowledge of Klipsch and their heritage. Maybe you will find even more interesting facts and stories related to PWK and their contribution to the field of acoustics.

Thanks,

Dave

I think you have a special interest in Klipsch and their products, especially after you found a book written by PWK in your school library. Perhaps you want to understand how and why you felt attached to Klipsch from such an early age and how your perception is justified. Regarding your question about the PWK book sent to school libraries, I am not aware of specific details or information about such books, if they existed. However, many authors and professionals sometimes donate their work to schools and libraries to spread knowledge and inspire young people. Perhaps PWK decided to share his knowledge and passion for acoustics and sound with others, including schoolchildren.

["A Christmas Carol" audio book here - a great listen]

For those of you with a penchant for the classic novel Charles Dickens "Christmas Carol" might be interested in this MP3 audio file ~

It's a reading of the book by a man named Doug Brown who read books for WOI radio for years and years. He is really, really good and does a wonderful job. I think kids like this also, tho it's a little long.

It's an unabridged reading, so it's about 3 hours long but it's the PERFECT thing to put on the player while Christmas activities (cooking, present wrapping, zoning out after large meal...) are going on.

You can download the file , here's the link.... then listen on either ipod or PC or burn it to a couple of audio discs and play them while driving. There is no DRM, it is in the public domain, from Iowa Public Radio.

Merry Christmas! (if you're into that sort of thing, Happy Festivus or whatever)[]

REMEMBER TO "RIGHT CLICK, SAVE AS" TO SAVE THE MP3 FILE

RIGHT CLICK, SAVE AS
I heard about this person who voices this book. I'm fond of people like him, you need to have talent to do his job. I also like edgar allan poe author, use https://studymoose.com/literature/edgar-allan-poe-author for information about him. I can name another 100 authors who are really cool. There are also new ones that few people know about, but they have incredible potential.

I've wanted to hear something like this for a long time!
