Maybe my chainsaw on the left and bench grinder on the right. USNRET, who's this Thad? Steven1963, Subwoofer is already in place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaddeus Smith Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 You could always pull an Earl and just buy a second house that's more conducive to your particular system's shortcomings (ground loop in his case). THAT is dedication to the hobby. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryant0086 Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Since I wasn't a member when I got my Belle's, I thought I would post a photo (if I figure out how) so I do not get persecuted! Awesome !! Ya'll may just have to trust me when I say I have a pair of oiled oak K's and a Belle center. I have a 9 year old Son, and a five year old daughter. I live in a rural area with a long dirt drive. I have four cats and four dogs (though the dogs don'trarely get to go into my living room except for one during thunderstorms) and I have wall to wall toys. I don't really have a Belle center, I actually have a half a Belle mounted on top of my TV and the other half sitting to the left of it. My Belle bass half has a lamp on it and a miniature aquarium with sea monkeys in it. There is no way in hades I am going to take a picture of my cluttered up living room. Ha ha ha....... I can send pix of the speakers close up, I suppose. ^____^ Bryant 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masterflysparklestick Posted March 19, 2015 Author Share Posted March 19, 2015 Quick question about speaker cable hookup. I'm planning on getting some banana/spade adapters to hook up my possible Belles but in the meantime will the banana plugs fit under the speaker connection screws or are the screws too short. No problem removing the bananas but just wondering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Steven1963 Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 (edited) I do not think you will be able to fit a banana plug under the screws. Two-pronged spade is best. Edited March 19, 2015 by Steven1963 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 No problem removing the bananas but just wondering. I'd remove the bananas. Even if you could fit them under the screws, you'd crush them once you tightened the screws down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JL Sargent Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Belles? Not only awesome sounding, but the best looking speaker Paul ever made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MookieStl Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I agree the Belle's are the best looking speakers in the Klipsch line. Some people say Belles are for people that dont have good corners, I say Belle are for people who listen to music with their eyes open. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
