ebradfordrich 0 Posted January 21 Really sad for sure. I was just emailing back/forth with him back in December. I have a set of new crossovers for my Heresy project sitting here in my office. My condolences to his family. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's the way I see it, just like it was at the Hope gathering in 2005, Bob sitting with Dee, and Bob checking out crossovers in his spare time. RIP Bob and Dee. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gregg, that was one of my favorite audio gatherings ever. It was my first trip to Hope, and obviously, the first time to visit the Museum and the Klipsch factory. We can never repeat with the same group of great guys, but I certainly hope you can make it again to a future gathering of Forum members. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One could never recreate my initial delight of finding an electroshock therapy machine in the museum basement. It ended up really improving my attitude. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EMRR 42 Posted January 29 RIP. Glad I had at least one phone conversation about some crossover design questions. Very straight no nonsense answers. Thanks Bob! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
