Over 24 years on this forum

I've been a member since January, 2002-- 22+ years and counting. But I was a lurker for a couple of years before I joined. In the beginning I was just soaking up the knowledge here. I didn't start posting until I thought I could contribute something helpful. To date only 653 posts, but I'm not trying to get into the record books. I'm happy to still be here and happier to have met some really great folks along the way. Here's to the Klipsch Forum!

Trey, you certainly are right there! I know you put your heart and soul into the only Pilgrimage I've attended: Hope in 2006. You and the whole Klipsch team, plus some great volunteers and forum members really made that an amazing event for everyone. Many thanks to all those on the Forum who help make this place such a great resource. Maybe I'll make it to another event someday!

20 years and 8500 posts. Not much lately,  been bogged down with caring for an ex wife (it was a perfect marriage-five states apart!)

 

Learned tons and had a lot of fun.

Many wonderful people here and too many sadly departed.

 

PS

I'd have a higher post count but my thread "Sex Sells!" got deleted.

March 2003, it's all kind of A blur, kind of taking a break for now except for the museum.

 

Met MANY good people here and in person, to many to count.

I've been wasting time here for over 20 years LOL!  Not so much lately, just the occasional pop in.

 

My first Pilgrimage was the 2004 gathering in Indy. Here are a few photos from the hotel meeting room:

Wow! Thanks for visiting and conjuring up good memories. 😊 I went to one of my first Klipsch 'Get-togethers' at your house and enjoyed several Klipsch pilgrimages with you...Excellent times and hope you're doing well. 🤓

I agree and even though we had our differences hope you and Christy are doing well.

Ha! I just saw I beat you by 5 days back in July 2000. 😮 I also remember meeting you in Hope and appreciate the advice and clarifications you've given on the Forum throughout the years. Thank you. 😊

I wouldn't remember either but it's on the top of the page when you click profile, unless account was changed and restarted.

I don't even remember, either way it's no big deal. There was only one subject/person who ever got me fired up and it was not you or Mark D.

I am still a young chick here, since December 2019. Initially I was mainly interested in the technical content, but I gave up because it's pointless to give anyone technical advice. In the end, everyone does what they think is right anyway.

 

Since then I've kept a low profile and have found friends in the Lounge from America, Australia and Europe with whom I exchange , especially in the Vinyl Record Spinning thread from @Full Range   

 

Still makes fun .......

I have been a member since 2013 and as @MicroMara mentioned - I initially joined for technical content 

 

Posting many of my DIY projects over the years 

Finally settled down and posting the music I enjoy and love in 3 formats - vinyl, CD , digital / video - discovering new music every day, many like minded members (to many to mention) joined in.

Along the way making friends and friendships all over the world and have become an ambassador for OSU football that @Dave1291 introduced me to 


Yes it’s still fun

Looks like 10 years for me I was a lurker for 5 before that looking for tech advice repairing / restoring Craigslist finds. Really liked the DIY scene that was here and got into it myself and have had lots of fun in the process. As of now really enjoying my Chorus II / ki-396 II hybrids but seriously considering getting rid of all my "stuff" and just getting a set of Cornwall IV's 😱 Hope we all enjoy many more years of KIipsch entertainment!

Yup, and you have turned me on to rugby as well.  Two great games, both brutal!  One w/helmets and pads, the other w/nada but grit and determination!  Insanity at it's finest!  I'm IN!  😂

 

Who know how long w/two diff nicks?  13-14 years prolly.  Too long for some or maybe not.  lol  It's life.  Friendships, knowledge and the laffs?  Great bunch in here and you'll find your niche once you settle in.  It always sorts.  :)
