  1. Funny stories, I am sitting here laughing because I did it last week to my wife and couldn't stop laughing which made it worse ! [:$] It scared me too. I wanted her to sit and listen to something, she sits on the sofa while I get it ready then I turn it on and sit, after a few seconds I hear nothing ? I turn up the volume a couple of times, I can't read the number on the front of the receiver from where I sit, then I realize I never had it set to CD. I press the CD button and about 25 WPC rushes to the MWM's [] from 15' away thats a whole lot of power for them, we both jumped and as I look over at her she had bounced off the sofa then was going up the back of it when I finally was able to hit mute. I could not stop laughing, she looked at me and screamed something I can't repeat here ! A few minutes later she was laughing, I think I jumped as high as her.
  2. Yes there working and sound great. I need to make a post. If I were you I would just use the two and listen to that for a while while you look or build another pair, you may decide you don't even want another pair depending on how much bass you want. What I like about the four bins is if you listen a low volume you still get nice bass. I will try to send you those pics in a few minutes and see if they go thru today.
  3. Wait till you can hear them ! They sound as big as they look, it does not sound like the sound is from a horn, just wait. [Y] And on top of a jube or MWM's I have not heard better even for many times the price. []
  4. I have a Yamaha RX-V730 and it has a 4 or 8 ohm switch on the back and it's far from the top of the line so i would think it's common ?
  5. Great story, started reading and couldn't stop, 3500 mph is hard to imagine.
  6. Now thats different, no computer needed, if you wanted to make CD's from your old LP's that's not a bad price really.
  7. No it's one of the original models, the little flat style, looking at the box it must be the original. Yes I do want to replace it, I was looking at the one at parts express with a rounded top is that the newer model ? If you have one you would like to sell just let me know how much. I really like these little things, I use it in the workshop connected to a little FM / CD player with the headphone jack, they are very convenient.
  8. I tried to use my little T amp today and it's somewhat dead, the headphone jack works but the outputs on the rear does not work at all. I took the top off and can't find the problem, one thing I did notice is the little " chip " gets really hot to the touch when it's on, I guess it's dead ?
  9. Your exactly right, the next thing is they will probably have a advertisement free Internet that you pay extra for. If I start out looking for one thing I usually get side tracked or led into a whole different area. and some of these places that pop up on there own you would never go on intentionally. It's not safe to let kids read on there own without some type of protection on your computer because you can type in almost anything and end up where you would not want a kid looking.
  10. I think your right especially that picture of Amy standing in front of that Khorn in a bikini, thats a great pic ! [] I don't know how I missed this thread, Amy this place would not be the same without you it would probably be shut down by now ! I think it is not said very often but everyone here appreciates what you do, you have heard it said many times how this forum is much better than any of the others, your a big reason for that. Thanks
  11. He bought so old lp's from an antique store to fin out later they were his mothers who died in 1979. http://www.sacbee.com/topstories/story/2071033.html
  12. Just to let you know how it ended up working. OK [] It works like I had hoped. I used the L & R pre-out to go to a 2 ch system which just uses the HTR as a pre-amp , I left my Ht L & R speakers connected to the receiver also. On the front of the receiver there is two buttons, speakers A & B, the Ht speakers are on A when I press that button the Ht works perfect, if I don't press the A button the signal goes to the 2 CH system.........perfect.
  13. Great pictures, and glad you mad it home safe, now it's going to feel strange to drive and sit on anything else for a while, great trip.
  14. Thats rough, 10 pounds in 2 days is really bad especially if you cant drink anything liquid, you were probably on the verge of being admitted in the hospital for a few days.
  15. That would be fun, I like how they leave the car doors open at the gas station like there doing me a favor. I need to put the MWM's in the back of the truck pointing to the side and pull up next to them and see who gives up first, use them like noise canceling headphones.
  16. I must have missed it, what was her opinion ? And what does she think of the sound ?
  17. I would think just 2 would work, just less bass, If I had 2 bass bins and everything else I would sure try it ! I can tell you this when you get the 2 on each side you will NOT want a third set, plenty enough bass with a pair on each side ! Did you get the email back, and if you did could you open that file ? If you couldn't open it, I will find a way to get it into something that can be opened, a few people want it and it would be nice to just email it.
