If he did, he'd be selling one of those pairs of Klipsch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jt1stcav Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 Only one pair of '79 Cornwalls. In need of Klipschorns and an Academy to complete my first HT system. I am flat broke. That's why I only own one pair of Cornwalls! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to move into big-time Heritage. I mean the mighty Klipschorns. In order to do this, you're going to have to sell some stuff. Sell two pairs of Cornwalls and keep your favourite pair. Sell one pair of Fortes and keep your favourite pair. Sell two pairs of Heresys and keep your favourite pair. That should raise enough cash to buy a decent pair of Klipschorns. You will need to wait of course until you get enough money to buy La Scalas and Belles to complete your collection. Maybe you could consolidate your home theatre stuff too. Sell some and focus on a pure Heritage home theatre system. In that way you could afford your La Scala and Belles... maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo33 Posted December 26, 2004 Author Share Posted December 26, 2004 You guys don't understand. I have a job but I don't make enough to spend on speakers. And I can't sell any of my heritage. One pair of Cornwall is used in my main 2-channel system. The other two pairs of Cornwall are used in my new all-heritage home theatre system I am currently building. One pair of Forte and Heresy are used in my backup 2-channel system. Another pair of Heresy is also used in my new home theatre system. The last pair of Forte and Heresy are used in my 2-channel system down here in OC where I am currently working two jobs . So I can't sell any of my heritage and even with two jobs, I don't have enough money to buy KHorns since I am incurring additional expense living in OC (it's expensive as hell living down here) .

edwinr Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 Well, that throws a completely different light on things, Neo. I 've got the same problem, big ideas but limited budget. How do you achieve the impossible on the improbable? I would say you can't do it without increasing your income somehow, or resorting to personal loans or other skullduggery. If you really must upgarde your Heritage collection, then something has to go. You'll have to compromise your sound in one of your systems. Hey, Neo, you're up late. Or early as the case may be in your time zone. It's 7.20pm here in Australia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodger Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 Neo: This is dodger. You know that I won't give you grief. At one point you say that you have a job. Another you say 2 jobs. So I have 2 pair of Coornwall IIs, 1 pair of heresys. I can't help in donating. What would be helpful to you is tell us what you do and how many hours per week that you work. I believe OC means Orange County. Am I correct? We all work within budgets. We can't have all of what we want. So either you need too follow EdwinR's advice or find a very sympathetic reasoning. Good Luck, dodger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo33 Posted December 26, 2004 Author Share Posted December 26, 2004 OC is Orange County in southern California, Edwin. It's only past midnight here. And the parties carry on... . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo33 Posted December 26, 2004 Author Share Posted December 26, 2004 dodger, I am a programmer by day and a photographer by night and weekend. Come to think of it, doesn't matter how much you make, you'll just never make enough to spend on audio gears. It's an expensive hobby and it is addictive more then heroin! . BTW, what you doing up so late, dodger? . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwinr Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 Yeah, Win. What are YOU doing up so late? Neo, I somehow pictured you as being involved with computers someway or other. And a photographer! Excellent. I work in a similar line of work to Win. You obviously stretch yourself to get what you want. Hi-fi IS an expensive hobby, but when you look at the satisfaction it brings to you, friends and family, it's an expense I'm happy to bear. Keep partying, Neo. Hope the new year brings you happiness and maybe some more heritage to add to your collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will also help EdwinR find a set. It's only 03:54 Hours here now. Good Luck Neo, dodger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodger Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 Greetings: Fell asleep with the headphones on, just woke up. Checking in. Edwin: Congratulations on the Reading Lamp.

garymd Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 You can't possibly need all those systems. Settle for 1 good 2-channel system and 1 HT that can also be utilized as 2-channel. That way you can sell off enough speakers and other gear to have 1 REALLY, REALLY good 2-channel system. Either that or move to a more inexpensive area! I doubt you'll get much sympathy around here from those who are after the same things and many who don't have anywhere near the amount of stuff you already have. There's also something to be said for being thankful for what you DO have. You're a lucky man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
