The internet cable comes in on the front of the house but the router and wife boxes are about in the middle, I would need something (?) to connect to that cable like the router is inside, if I tied into that cable before the router, I guess.

RickFL Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 My goal is to sell the leftovers in my AV collection and add some Kallax shelves for my growing record collection. Recap my Chorus II speakers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC39693 Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 Just getting closer... Luxman R-117 is in with tech for a full refresh, can’t wait to get it back. Got an Outlaw 5000. 5 channel power amp for the rest of the channels and just picked up a Sony 55 inch OLED tv to finish things off. Now we have to do wiring, wall mount(s), furniture, painting and decorating. Budget is nearly depleted! Oh, and build Heresy clones with son-in-law to be. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockhound Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 I want to test the "Active Speaker" market this year. I have owned pretty much every Klipsch consumer and pro speakers along with various amps. pre's and DACS. I like the simplicity and and lack of "noise" in the signal chain an all active setup offers. So I would say my goal for this year is to find an active speaker I can live with and sell pretty much everything else. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently working on different drivers and amps for my system in the basement. Once that is done, I will hopefully finish the sound panels and fine tuning the system. I would say sound treatment and fine tuning my system to get the most out of it would be my top priorities at this time. If I win the lottery Jubilees Cornwall IV Heresy IV 4k projector New pre/pro 4k player Maybe Forte IVs Maybe a bigger house. Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk Well it has been an interesting first half of the year, though I didn't win the lottery, I did get a decent bonus that allowed the following New Marantz AVR for the living to go with the new Cornwall IVs. I did replace the amps in the basement with 1 more to go. Not sure if that will happen yet this year as I really want to finish the sound panels and fine tune the system. We still have 5 months to go, so who knows what happens next...come on lotto numbers, daddy needs more speakers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssh Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 I'll soon reoccupy the music room in my house next door. The walls have two layers of 1/2" sheetrock covered with two layers of 1/2" commercial soundboard, with carpeting and acoustical ceiling tile. I've been waiting for a roofer for almost six months, and finally, the nail gun is popping in the background. We've had to wait to finish putting down the hardwood floor in the living room and to paint the walls and retile spots in the music room ceiling due to leaks. I still haven't even hooked-up the 396s, 362s and sub that I got about a year ago. I'll use either my 201s or 250s in the center. The Khorns will go over there for two channel. I'm still a couple of months of work away, but a lot less frustrated than I have been. SSH 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJkizak Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Well I could afford to install about four 8K HDMI cables in my 2K TV/audio system. It is wishful thinking. JJK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schu Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 I already achieved my AV/HT goals for 2021... a stand alone 5+ channel class D amp 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStewMan Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 was very tempted last week, saw on craigslist (Portland) someone selling KHorns for $1200. Ad claimed they worked perfectly; but there were some water marks on the top (pictures showed potted plants on top of speakers). if they indeed worked perfectly, that would be a nice deal.

richieb Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 I thought it was de rigueur that pre-owned Klipsch Heritage came with water stained tops. So much so that value decreases when no stains are present. The previous owner had to have been up to no good - 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The previous owner had to have been up to no good - I had to pass because I have NO plants in my house so I couldn't cover up those stains by putting my own potted plants over the stains. and I used to be man of the people -- I've lost touch.

Bubo Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 I usually pick up around 100 CDs a year to listen to then rip onto my server In the past 6 months I had to collections fall into my lap 500 rock, mowtown, 80-90s CDs from a professional singer who looked like the singer from Journey 3-400 CDs from a DJ in the new age genre, lots of harp, piano, acoustic etc, all good. Throw in a few boxes of new vinyl Doubt I can list to all of them in 2-3 years then I will need a place to file Perhaps a bigger house for more audio gear and storage 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
