3dzapper Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Yes a wonderful pair.[6] And, a beautiful figure (in the veneer grain you dirty old man!) Thanks for the tour Jay. Give us a good review after you have a few hundred hours on them. What'll that take? A week?[] Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay481985 Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 geez your all sooo god darn horny........ I seen that poster everyday and hence is does not even faze me. It is of my roommate and not mine. If you want to just buy it, goto allposters.com and type brooke burns BTW she is not naked but has gold paint that covers her.

el jopez Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Jay, Congrats on your new beauties! They look good. Let us know how you like them. Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 "It is of my roommate and not mine" Watch your sentence structure young man, you would have us believe that the fine sample of womanhood on the poster would be your roommate??? LOL Who is that girl anyway? I bet like 12 guys here are looking for that poster right now! Anyway, great photos man, and I love the tale of the journey. The bridge photos and tales of peoples reactions are priceless! Those boxes are massive- I'd love to have seen the look on your face as you towed your new beauties home. They sure look massive in your dorm room, I'd suggest that items like the beds and beanbag are helping your concrete room's acoustics. There's probably enough stuff lying around for plenty of diffusion as well. Your room is gonna rock dude, Happy 21st Birthday and don't spill any beer on those 83's. Personally I'd get that top scratch taken care of and then have glass tops made up for them, just in case. That cherry wood is certainly beautiful. I bet most of them sell in the cherry. Congrats on a great purchase! Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ranjith Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 *droooooooooooooool* shes a beaut! Like the others, I await a full review after some extensive listening. Of course, a review after they have been broken in would give a better opinion of the speakers. Man... no dorm room I ever knew had some stunning speakers like those, if you had lived in my residence last year I would've made a new best friend. Our dorm rooms were limited to cheap Altec 2.1s and Cyber Acoustics.. urrgh. You're welcome to be my roomate anyday if it so happens that you move to Canada. Nice pics, love the look of that 8' woofer. I think the 8inch woofer delivers very "smooth" bass, IMO. You're one lucky dude, just make sure any prospective g/f doesn't see them as a jealousy factor Ranjith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the most stupid grin the whole way They sure look massive in your dorm room, I'd suggest that items like the beds and beanbag are helping your concrete room's acoustics. There's probably enough stuff lying around for plenty of diffusion as well. The echo is almost non existant, I would have expected alot worse.

You're one lucky dude, just make sure any prospective g/f doesn't see them as a jealousy factor Ranjith They are getting louder? the more hours I put them on... At first I was doing oh -30 to be moderately loud during the daytime, but at night I was scared to hit -50! I think the speakers is starting to losen up. Actually I think my roommate is going to go nuts when he sees the boxes and speakers.... I mean he was like when I told him I brought it, "Umm so it's going to go on the desk right?" He is the same kid that decides that the promedia ultra I let him borrow should be pushed into the wall (the side of the heatsink and port) due to asthetic reasons. "Then I said you place it against the wall, I break your face []" He is going to totally spaz, before he was happy with just some pair of generic white speakers, actually he thought that the distortion was ok..... Then he goes off to claim that at home my parents have an awesome stereo system..... Bose 1-2-3............................ You get the picture. BTW I think I am unchallenged at my school for speakers now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a very good reason! The RF-83 was calling me all day! BTW it smells like wood in my room heh like cherry and gloss. It sorta is nice but it does make me a bit nausiated.........

Moderators Amy Posted April 17, 2006 Moderators Share Posted April 17, 2006 Jay, So glad everything worked out. Sounds like they were worth the effort [] --they sure look purdy, if I do say so myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Adams Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Congrats Jay and thanks for the photos. Speaking of photos....anyone else notice that optical illusion that Jay's pics show as well as the ones on the Klipsch website? You know, the one where it looks like the woofer is poking out like.......uh......er......uhhhhhh.....a woman on a cold day?? [] Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garymd Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 I bought my Cornwalls the summer before my Junior year. I lived off campus so they never saw a dorm room. They did survive 4 different college houses and multiple roommates. And yes, big Klipsch speakers are chick magnets at college.[] Go get em tiger!

Cal Blacksmith Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 WAY TO GO!! Those look fantastic! I have been in a few dorm rooms and I am sure those look HUGE (though they are not all that small either[]) You are off to a great start with well spent money. Take care of those bad boys and they may out live you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
