Dandoyen Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Alright, dad comes home from work in a couple of hours. He thinks I'm coming home for the holidays this evening, but I've actually been driving across the country the last two days and got in this morning right as he left for work. I've been working on setting up a little Xmas surprise for him when he gets home this evening. Check it out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandoyen Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 That wall is 13 ft wide, room is deep, but not ideal. Will get rug for the wood floors and treatment panels. Here's the rest of his toys. He's got a couple turntables, Technics/Pioneer, and Sony CD Player along with an Akai and Yamaha receiver.

JJkizak Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I believe he will crap his pants. JJK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandoyen Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 And the li'l Scotty powering the Khorns! That's my phone plugged into it playing mp3s (hardly even close to ideal) and these things are STILL booming! They actually sound AWESOME with the Scott. Was in no way expecting this. Seals in corners are perfect and bass is shaking the walls. Guest bed will be leaving the room after the holidays and it will become dedicated listening room. Meant the wall the speakers is on is 13 ft. I think the room 18 ft deep. Treatment options to follow, but these sound goooood. Can't wait to run the vinyl and cd's through them. Moreso, can't wait to see the look on his face! He has no idea these are waiting for him. He gets home in about 2 hours. This is gonna be AWESOME!! Will try to catch the look on his face and post pics. He's wanted these things longer than I've been alive, so figured I'd get him some [] Marry Christmas POP!

Mallette Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 If you ever need an extra Dad PM me... You are a blessing to your father. Merry Christmas to all of you... Dave PS - Be a great time for some pix of the event. Video cam on one of the speakers facing the door would be ubercool. Him staring at the might Klipschorn, and the mighty Klipschorn staring back...

Chris A Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 He thinks I'm coming home for the holidays this evening, but I've actually been driving across the country the last two days and got in this morning right as he left for work. You think it'll be the speakers that thrills him, however, I'm thinking that you might be wrong. [{][G] Merry Christmas and Happy Reunion!

mikebse2a3 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Thanks for letting us in on the fun....!.....and try the KHorns on the 18' wall when you get a chance if possible cause they often will perform there very best in imaging, clarity and bass for several reasons on the long wall in rectangular rooms similar to your Dad's. mike tn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dandoyen Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 He had a meeting after work. Still about 30 min out. He still doesn't know I'm here so he's not in a rush. Any minute now. Updates to follow soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete H Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I must say that this is GREAT!!!! One of the best gifts you could give because the price really has nothing to do with it, it's the thought regarding the gift and you are in for some tears and a big hug I would suspect.
