Boxx Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Welcome to the forum... It sounds (and looks) like you've got some nice gear. There are some great folks here, on this forum, that can give you good advice, answer questions, recommend music and sometimes make you laugh. Come over to the "Right This Minute" thread sometime....

BigStewMan Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 welcome aboard. this place can get a little crazy; but, it's mostly a good place with decent people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chisoxpurdue Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Get away while you can. This place is BAD. People here share your ideas of hoarding speakers. If you have a choice between two sets, people here will tell you to buy both and compare for yourself. They push this addiction further. That is how a poor kid like me can have Chorus IIs, Quartets, Academy, Tangent 500s, and fortes while enjoying my father's system of La Scalas, 3 Heresys, and 2 CornScalas. (All Heritage or relatives). Well, if you are still reading, welcome to this place. And when you want to sell some khorns, don't call me as I am out of money. I even passed on $550 Cornwall Decorators that looked nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted August 3, 2011 Moderators Share Posted August 3, 2011 Welcome [Y] Haven't seen that many CV speakers in one place before, very nice. I have to ask, is that a pic of you ? Wild beard you got going on, how long it takes to grow like that, need some dark glasses to go with it. [H] [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groomlakearea51 Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Welcome to the Forum! Some survival tips! Many crazy things here. Many, many things... If in doubt consult with a mystic or read the leaves Always take your pills before signing on... It's probably best not to get your hair or beard cut as it gives you an aura of great power which, when you clean out the CV's and get a coupla' pairs of K'horns, you will be able to project mind control powers in the Garage Sale section of the Forum. Gotta' run..... "Big Nurse" is headed down the hallway with the electrodes again!!! [H] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 OK everybody, all together now........Hiiiiiii Kellllllly. Welcome to the forum. Tell me the truth, can you even hear little that sub with all those big CV's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta' run..... "Big Nurse" is headed down the hallway with the electrodes again!!! well, my friend, i have been keeping my eyes peeled for a nice vintage set of LS in my area. i would also go for some belle's. hence why i'm here, plus i just really like audio in the first place. unfortunately, i can't afford the 3k-6k it would take to get a couple sets of k-horns, but i do accept donations.. you could even write them off on your taxes! educational donations!

pimpmaynard Posted August 3, 2011 Author Share Posted August 3, 2011 OK everybody, all together now........Hiiiiiii Kellllllly. Welcome to the forum. Tell me the truth, can you even hear little that sub with all those big CV's? you'd be surprised at just how powerful that little sub is. it makes quite an impact in my 10 x 12 bedroom. i keep the volumes reasonably low (max of -20 on my receiver, while i think it ranges to 0 or beyond.) it's only temporary, as i'm selling the athena micra 6 set it came from locally on craigslist. --but, that little sub pounds. i also have a KLH 12'' front firing sub downstairs that i don't use. i think it's the SW-12, 100 watts maybe? the athena sub is much better than the KLH.

Ironsave Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 What Up Pimp! As mentioned; Welcome! This place is addictive; because it fuels the speaker addiction. That setup looks killer. Klipsch is my #1 love; but there are lots of great speakers and gear out there. When you get them Belles or LaScalas; post some pics! (I also concur; do not shave the beard).....
