Sadly, our friend and longtime forum member, Larry Clare passed away yesterday. Larry was 88 and his health had been deteriorating steadily over the past several years. Those of us who have been around this forum since the early days remember Larry for his classical music expertise and his willingness and enthusiasm in sharing his knowledge and lifelong passion with others. Larry hosted a number of forum gatherings that would begin at his house in Bethesda, MD and end in an evening of classical music at Strathmore Music Center. The most memorable of these was an evening with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra performing Holst’s “The Planets.” The concert was fantastic and our large forum group caused somewhat of a scene at the end, cheering as though Led Zeppelin just walked off stage. Larry also enjoyed hosting classical music workshops at the early pilgrimages in Indy. There will be a memorial service sometime in the next couple of weeks. If any local MD/DC area forum members are interested, please shoot me a pm. Gary

I didn't know Long Green was an actual town. I drive by there often. I'm just a few minutes north if someone needs me to check these out.

What sad and terrible news. Josh and I swapped records and equipment many times over the years. He was always very kind and generous and my heart goes out to his friends and family. RIP my friend...

So sad to hear. RIP Bob.

Travis!! We need to catch up. Hope all is well.

Hey there Jay! All is well here. Just hanging around getting older and wiser....older at least (turned 60 last week). I was working from home 4 days a week before all this began so that part is easy. Not hanging out with the grand kids has been the toughest adjustment for me. Stay safe my friend.

What's up everyone? Nice to see my old pals posting! Back to the subject at hand... I haven't made any major changes to my main system in probably a decade or longer. I honestly can't remember when I bought any of my gear but it has to be at least 10 years since Craig sold me NBS prototype #2. My room has changed a few times and my Khorns now sit more than 20 ft apart which was a massive improvement.

This is like a reunion....

Hey Allan. Glad you finally have something to play all those crappy records on!

Hahaha...didn't think anyone noticed. I try to post at least once every 3 years, even if I don't have much to say. Thebes actually sent me a link to this thread. These are the only other pair of factory zebrawood I've seen in many years although I haven't paid much attention lately. I hope all my old forum friends are doing well!

Very nice.

Fits mine perfectly....in case you were wondering.

Hey Mark - You have a pm!

Yeah Russ...don't make me feel any worse than I already do!! Yes, I sold them to Dhar along with a bunch of other great stuff way way way too cheap.... I drove 6 hours to Syracuse for those CWs and they were gorgeous!!!

Hey Tom! This is also my first post in ages, maybe just my 2nd or 3rd in the past 3 or 4 years. If these are still available, I might be interested. Just moved into a new house (post-divorce) and looking to set up the HT again. All I need is a center channel to go with my zebrawood cornwalls and there is no longer a need for WAF. I sold a beautiful pair of NM '74 CWO's a couple years ago way too cheap that look exactly like yours..wish I still had them. I'm in MD but not totally opposed to a road trip. Might be a long shot but shoot me a pm or email if you want to discuss. Gary
