  1. Well try both together ? Maby just you and your wife just jump up on that sub while the music is playing, it would be her favorite new part of the HT. [:|] That system you are putting together should sound great, there should be no reason for it not to. Be careful with that volume knob that's a lot of power for Forte ll's, that amp should barely warm up.
  2. Sounds like a good deal, how old is your dad,and what did he say when he heard it ?
  3. ok maby that didn't sound right................let me say it over.......He was the only person at the pilgrimage that had all silver, white hair like that, and he wore Kipsch t shirts that weekend, he was not in a shirt and tie when I met him or seen him all weekend at the pilgrimage. I did have a chance to talk with him a little, a no BS kind of guy ! Maby a little BS but to the point !
  4. The best way to stop the cat from rubbing up against anything is to put 2 bare wires sticking out the outlet, it will make the kitty lose intrest in rubbing on anything.[] Just kidding, the rubber under the speaker will make it hard to slide.
  5. OK since we are asking , almost afraid to ask but has anyone heard from Horn ED ? Last I heard he had just Married and was working on his " resort " but was not doing so great.
  6. I may try the SACD first I love how SACD's and DVD A's sound and I only have a few right now.
  7. I know it's hard to wait but stick with it, it will be worth the wait. I don't know what the problem is but it will be over soon here is some pic's of how they build the Heritage by hand. http://www.cyclonecj.com/dtel/dtel.htm I hope you wait, I know it's aggravating but try to hold off on changing your mind, you will get a quality product for the patience. There are not many things really " hand made " in this country anymore, and they will last more than a lifetime.
  8. Okay, do we have to start a petition to make sure Roy makes it to Indy???? Just give me an address and we will pass through Hope and kidnap him and bring him to Indy, just don't let him know, he never reads here anyway ! I already know what he looks like, I just have to lure him into the Jeep with some Blueberries and a fishing pole, yea that will work.
  9. I knew who that was even from the back , almost didn't recognize him all dressed up from the front though. [Y] Is that how you go to work ? You looked more comfortable in Hope. That is LOUD !
  10. Thats funny Hwatkins. There is a new DVD that just came out in the last year, would that be better than one of the older ones to try another for her ? What would be a good one to get her past this ? I do also listen when she is not around, so if she don't like the next one I will listen when she is not around.
  11. Got the bill from the Hospital today, want to guess how much ? Just the Hospital not the Doctor. 2 nights 3 days. It goes without saying if you guess correctly you win $ 0.[:|]
  12. That was part of why I had a hard time in the hospital, I never ate anything the whole time I was there, I had cranberry and orange juice twice. I just never felt like eating, and when they bring the food you feel like eating even less. They were not happy i would not eat, Christy wanted to go get me something else, but for once in my life I was not hungry ? All those drugs and no food does strange things, Water and drugs gets rough ! Indy I didn't know about that with those movies, that's the thing now shaved, shows how long it's been since I have seen one.! [:$]
  13. Nice looking setup and house ! One thing nice, your wife knew about you audio habits before she married you, and she must not have a problem with it.[Y]
  14. I am from Louisiana not Mississippi, OK that's not any better , need to find another excuse for " you all ", I would normally say Ya'll. When I type I try to not use some of the words I would if we were talking in person, I try to take some of the accent out. My wife looks at some of the things I type and she just shakes her head, then I know it's time to make some changes. No she never wanted me to listen to Barry Manilow, she knows better. We like the same type of music except she can't stand Pink Floyd ? She don't know why but she can't be in the same room when it's playing, just something about it ? NO I haven't been taken over by aliens, unless the ones in the white nurse uniforms last week count ? [] Those aliens in nurse uniforms had me seeing strange things , the gave me so many serious drugs I felt like " ROCK STAR " like Michael would say. On the last day in the hospital I was asking the nurse please do I have to take that I would rather the pain, she made me take them. They sent me home with 40 Lortab pain pills. I used about 6 over the next 4 nights just to sleep, the rest can stay in the bottle for all I care. Although what ever they gave me a injection of was not bad, felt great for the first 20 minutes, then I don't remember what happened. Maby it was aliens because when I woke up the next day it really did feel like I had been proded in places that did not feel normal ? It's kind of hard to be modest when they knock you out, then you wake up and are sore, and shaved, in places I had to be knocked out to feel comfortable to allow this.[]
  15. Michael even fishing gets old. Hwatkins anything she says but please no Barry Manilow, please !
  16. When Michael came down here for a week his plane left to go back home like at 6 am so not to take any chance on getting him to the airport late we went out to the French Quarter the night before, gotta be safe ya know.[] That way we could watch the time without any chance of falling asleep. [] After a night in the French Quarter we took him to Cafe Du Monde for New Orleans coffee and Beignets, I don't know about him but I needed it ! That coffee just taste better with beignets, I don't know what if any effect the chicory has ? I think it's just a filler, but when it's what you are used too ! Found a recipe for beignets, but never tried it yet. http://neworleanscuisine.blogspot.com/2005/05/new-orleans-cuisine-beignet-recipe.html
  17. I have Crossroads I haven't watched it in a good while, forgot about Joe Walsh with James Taylor. I remember I liked everything on it except that guy playing some ? India music ? Sounds like I have some to watch over again, I don't buy movies but I can watch concert DVD's over and over. That's a sure sign your old when all your favorite concert DVD's are reunion tours !
  18. I didn't know Folgers made ( hazelnut ) will have to try that ! I love Frangelico liqueur over a little ice.
  19. Never seen him with James taylor. I do have the James Taylor " Pull Over " DVD and it has many good songs, and is a good recording also. Love those yellow sneakers though.
  20. Wow moon that takes um................... nerve ! Now you are not just talking home video with the wife ? [] Is that where you got the name Moon ?
  21. I feel comfortable here because I know about dysfunctional family's, ask Michael he was here for a week, I never claimed to be normal !
  22. OK OB, I won't do it , I really didn't want to. I will go take a walk and then listen to some more music. My daughter came over with my 8 month granddaughter yesterday and I picked her up and they all screamed at me at the same time. It's hard to remember to not pick up anything. But they are right, the plan is to heal completely so the old horse can be put back into full service before he becomes permanently useless and has to be shot, makes sense.
  23. I also heard them last year in Hope. They let us listen to all the new Heritage in Hope. they all impressed us, but when they got to the Heresy lll I was thinking I was going to be a little let down after hearing it's bigger brothers. It looks like a baby on the side of the others, but when the music started playing my wife and I both turned to each other at the same time surprised ! It's hard to belive the amount, and quality of sound that comes out of these relatively small boxes ! When you first hook them up, give them, or your ears a little time to adjust, it will sound different than what you have. But it won't take long before you have that permanent Heritage smile on your face. You will be happy, and good choice !
  24. You guy's are nuts, I laugh every time I read on this forum ! I feel much better, to the point of I am bored. I listen to music, watch TV, walk outside, fish in our pond, I am getting desperate, I may have to go straighten out my workshop, that is how bored I am. [] They wouldn't let me even cook last night, and I love to cook. I don't know about you but when I can't work or much of anything else I tend to eat everything in the house ! I feel great though, thanks . My sister who thinks my wife and I are nuts with all this speaker stuff sat down the other night and read the 9 pages of people wishing us well and was shocked that a group of audio nuts would actually care , she was also laughing alot at some of the replies , but still thinks were nuts.[Y]
  25. They need to play a few more of Joe Walsh songs he likes to rock. On the 2 DVD's I have HFO and Farewell 1 Tour there are a few songs that rock but many more pop songs. I think it's the second disc from the Farewell 1 Tour that they pick it up a little. Joe walsh is also good on the Eric Claptons Crossroads DVD.
