MeloManiac Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Our last day in Dinant, Adolphe Sax' birth town. Can't wait to be back home and listen to some nice records. In Dire Straits' live album Alchemy, there's a nice intro with a sax to the song 'Tunnel of Love' . Sincere greetings to the Klipsch Community, from Belgium! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, if you should wonder, it is *not* a statement (Corona Extra is a beer...) about the current pandemic! I like the cooling airflow of a straw hat. That's not saying it makes me look cool, though. 😎😉 But that Fedora hat, I like it! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Corona is a beer 🍺 So we are down for a fur felt Fedora hat ✅ But for everyday use in a light straw hat You get a Fedora style Panama hat ( I have over 50 hats and caps ) It makes the Audiophile man 😎 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MicroMara Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Can´t spin or listen to any kind of musik this weekend , my Marantz integrated , which i used as preamp for my mono tubes , has a problem in its electrical circiut. It keeps shutting down . This safety circuit currently prevents major damage to the device. I have to send the Marantz for service. Beginning of next week, a friend lends me a preamplifier from Camtech ( UK ) then I can listen to music again. Beeing not in a good mood right now .... 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeloManiac Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Back home from excellent holidays in the Belgian Ardennes, Dinant. After a pleasantly short drive of 2 hours, I decided this would be the first album to listen to: Cream's Wheels on Fire. Appropriate title, not? Klipsch Heresy, Leben CS300 and Pro-Ject TT / Ortofon OM10 / iFi Zen Phono amp... Delicious combination. Missed it a lot. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnJ Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Very interesting read about that JIMI release. What "Walterdigstunes" has to say enables me to comprehend why the Hendrix family took such a tight grip on his stuff before I decided I needed his records. I can only imagine what it would have sounded like before douglas put his thumb and asterisk on all that! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
