His car was totaled by an uninsured driver that ran a red light at 50 MPH and T-Boned the passenger door. Long day, at Omaha NE. airport at 0400 arriving Corpus at 1100 then home, then Corpus to San Antonio...deal with car salesman, pay, paper, paper, paper, eat then back to Corpus. 19 hours today. So sick of salesman. I am not financing not buying extended warranty. I have $100 USD bills to pay you. SHUT UP and take my money. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEH Synergy Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 @usnret sorry to hear that. The leeches are always out for blood. You boy is alive and not injured (it seems). This is a blessing in disguise. I wish you the best with the rest of your ventures strangled off by the blood sucking insurance companies 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baron167 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Oooo Nice... What did you have before..... Any initial impressions of the Velodyne...???I run Klipsch SW-8's (one L, one R) on my main 2-ch system (Klipschorns, Cornwalls, and Heresys). I plugged the HGS-18 into the L for testing. Impressions: Good Lord this thing goes LOW. It integrates nicely and with a little adjustment I was able to make it merge with the music becoming an extension versus just having boomy bass. I hope that makes sense? I have not decided if it's going to remain with my 2-ch system (replacing both SW-8's) or if it is going with my newly configured home theater system (in process of reconfiguring). I need more time with it, but so far it seems very musical.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
