  1. I am using three 60.OWBs with RC7s.One of them is for sale.They are very strong & attractive mounts. SSH
  2. John Kennedy Toole wrote one very good book.Only one copy before his death.Does that count? SSH
  3. Dee, If you hear a better 2A3 than the AVVT,please share the info. SSH
  4. Add It's A Beautiful Day_."White Bird" was a defining song for it's era.What a great list of music.I just ordered four remastered CD's by Moody Blues. SSH
  5. I use a Marantz 300 CD file that I am very happy with.It sounds much better to me than my two Pioneer 100 CD files that I ran through a controller.It does not have the detail of my SACD player,but I would characterize it as very good. SSH
  6. Rick, If you can put a LaScala under your set,it will raise it about 24".I'm taking my stand out from under mine & inserting a LaS this weekend.It will raise my set a net 3". SSH
  7. I enjoy the humor in some of her cuts like "Wet Match" from The Right Time_. SSH
  8. P.S. I am 100% satisfied with two purchases of used equipment from this forum:a NOS Valves restored Scott 299A,& a pr of Jeff Lessard-built SET 2A3 monoblocks.You might do well to watch for HT equipment here,or list your needs & budget for specific suggestions.Welcome to the Forum. SSH
  9. My experiences have been mostly good on ebay,Audiogon,& internet sources.I've had more problems with internet vendors.I've saved buying new & used wire on ebay,& I've bought used wire & a preamp on Audiogon.I just listed a Klipsch RC7 in almost perfect condition on Audiogon. SSH
  10. I had hoped that this might benefit a Forum member.I have listed it on Audiogon. SSH
  11. You got a real bargain,Frzninvt.I'm picking up a pair from Dee this weekend for $800.One may have a crossover problem.The squawker doesn't respond,and the speaker does work.They have been modified with volume controls for the tweeter & squawker,which I'll take out or disable. SSH
  12. synthfreek, I don't know your music,but I care enough to check it out.I'll be on BMG's site looking almost now. SSH
  13. Allan, I am reminded of Etta James by her soulful voice several times weekly. Forget about her? I feel much better,too,after a little Etta. SSH ,
  14. John, I'm going to lay it on its' side & put my TV on top of it. SSH
  15. Gary, Their albums were solid,start to finish.I usually liked every song on them. SSH
  16. Frzninvt, I've been very happy with the RC7 (between Khorns)for movies,but for multichannel SACD,I've missed the full range.You're right about the improvement in detail, & it will provide a more seamless soundstage. SSH
  17. I'm getting another LaScala to use as a center channel, so I have a black RC7 & its' Omnimount for sale.Excellent condition.Omnimount (black) will hold a 60 lb.speaker.You may choose from my center channel,which is broken-in with about 120-140 hours of use,or one of my rear centers,which have less than 10 hours of use.$475 plus shipping from 71730. SSH
  18. Clapton-"Layla"-different versions back-to-back Elton-"Crocodile Rock" Iron Butterfly-"Inagodadavida" Jimi Hendricks-"The Star Spangled Banner" The Allman Bros-"Whipping Post" Jeff Beck-"Guitar Shop" Moody Blues-"The Afternoon" (Tuesday Afternoon) Doobie Brothers-"Black Water" Crosby, Stills,& Nash-"Wooden Ships" Pink Floyd-"Speak To Me/Breathe" SSH
  19. Gary, Great find.Jeff suggested it to me & it sounds fine on my Khorns through the monoblocks he built. SSH
  20. m00n, Yes-SiFi.Great soundtrack.It awed one of my friends & he made a comment that broke us all up. SSH
  21. m00n, While watching the Titans movie you've said was a great "showoff" soundtrack,one of my buddies commented,"Wow,I wonder if there's an x rated soundtrack that sounds this good?".Belly laughter and crude commentary involving space travel insued. You were right-on about the soundtrack,m00n.Great listening fun. Colin, "Bolero" may be the most sensual,and certainly is one of the most sensual,pieces of music ever composed. SSH
  22. So,what is the best X-rated soundtrack to show-off your system,LOL?I expect to hear more about spine-tingling trebel than basso's profundo's. SSH
  23. KJ, Many great cuts,yes.As Allan suggests,the fidelity does not represent the best of jazz sounds.Many of us enjoy the detail we hear in jazz recordings.There are many suggested on an earlier thread that will introduce you to that aspect of the genre. SSH
