  1. LMAO! And his response is that he is the Chief Bonehead, I have a new respect for the Chief! đź‘Ť
  2. Read the fine print, he is not just a bonehead but the 'Chief' bonehead. Not good enough, how about: Mr. Chief Bonehead? Sir Chief Bonehead? Chief Bonehead P.E.? The Supreme Chief Bonehead?
  3. I just got my CD copy this weekend, $12 on Amazon. Still need to listen to it.
  4. I hate black speakers, but these are really nice: https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649876498-klipsch-cornwall-speakers-ebony-amp-ivory-veneer/
  5. If you buy the Academy, I will take it off of your hands if you happen to come to Las Vegas.
  6. That is impressive. Did they test the AVR 5800 or 5803?
  7. To my surprise I used disposable brushes and they worked great. Put in a plastic bag a little wet and they stayed just fine.
  8. If you have the very basic skills, a light sanding with 220 paper (like 5 strokes), wipe with a dry cloth then follow with tac cloth and apply three coats of semi gloss or high gloss oil based polyurethane and they will look like new. I have a beautiful pair of Chorus that were refinished in matte, I just did this over the weekend and they were taken to the next level. Nice a smooth and shinny.
  9. I bought some heavy 3/4" velcro tape. I will just leave it in the tool bag or case. It will likely get dirty or sawdust on it if it hangs on the cord. I keep my tools looking new and this stuff looks like a dirt magnet. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B8TJNX5?psc=1
  10. I have been searching and cannot find these. I need some velcro type cable wraps that I can use for power tools. I am looking for something heavy enough not to be ruined and with a way to fasten it om one end of the cable so it hangs there when I am using the tools. Anyone find something? Is this a bad ides and should I just use some velcro tape and leave it in the tool's case when I am using the tool?
  11. Beautiful work. Laying it out that neatly takes some time to get it perfect.
  12. I got so much work done I finished early, felt better and had more energy. Seriously, I did start work a little earlier. I thought that the forum was over and done. I figured someone high up heard grumblings and said pull the plug. I have seen decisions like this many times.
  13. I'll keep my day job. As long as it takes me to build these I don't think that the word profit can ever come into play. It is Klipsch's forum, they make the rules, we are guests here. I am on 20 years.
  14. Is this true? I didn't know this. So crossover modifiers, but we can still post our personal mods,right? I just got the last caps for some really pretty x-overs that I am building.
  15. I think everyone here has a room or two, some a warehouse, full of gear bought before the prices went up. I paid $300 for my La Scalas, the guy couldn't sell them so I finally called and got them after a month or so. Didn't want or need them but said oh well, I might use them in the future.
  16. No. Tried it with an eq years ago and it was horrible. Use an X curve if I recall.
  17. Are these still the go to? The RP-600M's are getting huge reviews and are $350 a pair in Walnut. Quite a bargain for such highly regarded speakers. https://www.amazon.com/Klipsch-Reference-Premiere-Bookshelf-Speakers/dp/B07G3D2C8
  18. WHat is the RC5 code? If I recall, the universal remotes list say Denon and have five numbers and you try each until one works.
  19. Here, Phillips SRP9232D/27, looks like it is back ordered. You need the code to program it. Contact Mark for that. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B4P1DK9?psc=1
  20. Really? I guess everything is going through the roof. For $3K I'd expect a mint pair with a beautiful veneer, grills and nice crossovers.
  21. I struggled with a crappy Denon remote from around 2004 and finally bought a $5 Panasonic universal. Controls the power and mute and I am happy. Nice and fast and doesn/t drain batteries every month. Long way of saying that a universal should do it if you can get the codes from Mark.
  22. Over priced (I think) but they sure are nice, La Scalsa are a little rough, especially at this price. https://lasvegas.craigslist.org/ele/d/scottsdale-mcintosh-c22-mc240-mr71/7532556898.html
  23. I did pick up a 20 WPC Class A Luxman recently just for these reasons.
