Old Posts and Threads


Recommended Posts

How can I dig up old threads and posts from 10 years ago?

 

It used to be you could easily view a list of every post you had made, now you can only "see" a very abbreviated page of relatively current posts

 

Am I just too stupid and am missing it?

 

Thank you

I found my original post on the Klipsch forums:

 

Posted 12 March 2011 - 06:23 PM

 

I have a very large gathering room. The ceilings are 20', and the room dimensions are 50' X 50'. I currently have an Integra Receiver with 110 watts/ channel, and Paradigm Cinema 220's and a Paradign 12" powered sub and a 55" flat panel TV on the wall. This setup is OK when a group just wants to sit and watch a show or a movie, but when we want to turn the volume up, the system just doesn't hit hard enough.

 

I want to be able to turn on some AC/DC, Aerosmith, or Stones, and wake up the 70's in a big way. I also LOVE the blues if that matters in your advice(s).
I am willing to just get a CD player, amp/preamp (tubetype if needed), and a couple big *** speakers, and have them separate from the 5.1 system.
What setup do you recommend I buy to fill this room? What should I spend? ( I do have money, but I don't like throwing it away needlessly.)

Looking at this post brings me back. What a welcome reception. This has been my experience ever since.
 
Thank you all for all of your help over the years. You are the greatest forum this in the known universe.   :emotion-21:

If I check "my content" I see 14 pages of my posts.  From my very first post when I joined in 2010.

 

As for old topics you can enter some key words,  search,   and all sorts of old posts with that word pop up.

 

I find all sorts of info in the old stuff,  but I am not the one that "bumps"  the old posts.  :mellow:

Thank you

 

That was the ticket

I went and read that thread, how great. What happened to Speakerdritz? Guess he is one listed as "guest."

What speakers are you running in the shop now?

Well, I took the advice of the dtel and many of the follow up responders. 

 

 

Welcome

There are some bigger models that would work but are a little harder to come by. So I would say a pair of LaScalas and a sub better than the 12" you have now. The sub can be DIY for something big enough for that size room and a pair of LaScalas would sound great in a room that size.

Both together could easily play OVER 30-50 people being loud much less sitting and watching a show or a movie.

If you want to go nut's 5 LaScalas and a sub with your receiver would make a big room come alive with movies and music, I have heard one like that and it's tough to beat.

Have you heard the Lascalas or other Klipsch ?

That's one opinion. [Y]

 
 

In that size room, several subs and Lascalas, or if you have some corners available, Klipschorns would likely fill better with a Lascala if you want 5 channel.

You should be looking at Heritage type Klipsch, older Cornwalls and Chorus speakers would also do. Klipsch does sell new Cornwall III's, LaScalas, and K-horns that would fit the bill without any problem. Normal speakers like Paradigm are not up to the task of such a large room unless you have a bunch of them. BTW, you might even look for quality Pro speakers.

 

 

The consensus was LaScalas, although there was discussion about Jubes. I am running 6 LaScalas, 2 Heresy wides, and 2 DIY THT subs.  I upgraded the Integra AVR to an Integra pre-pro. 

 

See, I do listen.   :)

 

It was all great advice.
