  1. Things are still okay. Still no water or power. we just got a load of supplies from folks at our church. They are working on getting us a generator as well.
  2. Yep, we are known for our quartz mining operations. we have a working stoplight near the house so power is on its way into town. Supplies are being brought in so things are okay. there are still lots(hundreds maybe) of people unaccounted for after the flooding in our county alone. lots of people doing a lot of good in the area, and a few bad actors looting and trying to steal stuff. overall we are doing fine all things considered. i spent most of the day cutting a friends camper out from under a large poplar that came down in the storm. I’ll check in when I can.
  3. Yep, my phone got the flash flood and landslide warning a few minutes ago. I also discovered I have a little leak at one end of my living room. I was able to climb up in the attic and get a large cooler under it now so at least it will stop dripping through the ceiling.
  4. It’s already raining cats and dogs here in Western NC. Some reports are saying we could be in for 20” of rain. I hope everyone stays safe and dry.
  5. He sounds like somebody who has never tried to build anything out of the plywoods mentioned. If weight isn’t an issue I would much rather build using Baltic Birch. I could be wrong but I think the internal resonant frequency of the Baltic Birch is higher as well which helps make the individual cabinet panels less sympathetic to frequencies coming from the woofer. oh, and I think the front baffle on my KP-250s is 1” thick.
  6. Oh yeah, the amp I was playing through was a little Ampeg PF-20T, two 6v6 tubes at 20 watts into the portaflex 210 cab. It sounded great and would make the perfect studio amp.
  7. I think originally they were from closer to Toledo but nowadays he lives in Columbus. I called the number for the clerk of court this afternoon and their automated message said we were dismissed. Time to get back to the music.
  8. The guy that lives across from me called me up and invited me over to play bass on some songs he and his buddy from Ohio were recording. We stayed up way too late last night and I had jury duty this morning but it was a fun time.
  9. Over time the density balance between the wax and the liquid can get off and they won’t work right. i had one that had gone “dead” on me but I was able to revive it by slowly adding a tiny bit of dissolved salt to the liquid which increased its relative density enough to cause the heated wax to start floating again. The cap on mine was the same size as a standard beer bottle and I got a friend with a home brewing setup to seal it up with a new cap when I was done.
  10. It’s the other way around in Roy’s settings. The low pass for the woofer is at 420 and the high pass for the compression driver(k69) is at 470. Don’t forget that there is also a +2dB (Q:5) boost at 380Hz applied to the woofer which affects the shape of the curve through the low pass region around 400Hz. My guess is that the boost at 380Hz is needed to help flatten things out but since the signal is now being boosted in that region, the crossover frequency for the woofer has to be lower than the frequency designated for the compression driver so that both drivers will sum correctly and still hit -6dB at the same frequency to maintain a flat(ish) phase response that the 24dB/oct Linkwitz-Riley crossover is known for.
  11. Example 1 creates his own brand and approaches Roy/Klipsch about doing a collaboration. Example 2(or 3 or 4) tries to use the Klipsch owned forum to market their mods/company/etc while talking about how inferior the stock Klipsch products are. This is a simplification of the situation but surely you can understand the difference.
  12. No dogs, no mojo, just a regular customer. The Kona itself is fine but doesn’t wow me. I might buy a small bag and try brewing some at home as I suspect the shops drip pot isn’t getting the best out of their beans.
  13. Because the K510 is ugly and takes a 2” driver. Since it’s a CD type of horn it probably needs extra EQ to maintain a flat response in the higher frequencies.
  14. The girls at my local coffee shop have started upgrading me to Kona free of charge.
