It's OK. Take your time, we are waiting patiently for your review of both. Do I get an "admit one" ticket to the man cave sometime down the road? 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You competing with @jwc now eh? He's not exactly a next door neighbor for me otherwise id be knocking on his door too. Didn't have the time or the space to be able to hear a pair of the grands as you could see when you can over. I would Def like to hear the after you get them dialed in nicely. I can compare to the jubes I heard from @babadono. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had delayed getting the big K-402 for years because I was not sure they would have the correct proportions on the K-horns, but they fit just right. I actually like how the big horn extends wider than the front panel of the K. Like a big beautiful sound mushroom! And with that wood trim around the big horn... I think I am finally looking at the 'trophy" speakers I will ultimately put together and reward myself with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really digging your veneer job on these Cornwall IIs I got from you and these may end up staying in my living room. Eager to see what you think of the KPT 535 3 way setup once it's all dialed in.

He got me as a sucker for the veneer 😏 It's the contrasting dark veins that really make woods like these pop. I've dabbled in creating this contrast by dying wood black then wiping the dye off before staining. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khornukopia Posted November 5, 2019 Author Share Posted November 5, 2019 At the Halloween concert, a guest conductor led the orchestra into the first song. Then Batman rappelled down a rope onto the stage, gently but firmly pushed the conductor aside, pulled out his Bat-on and led the orchestra for an evening of Super-hero movie theme songs. It was great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
