J.4knee Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 If you know the engineers and employees of a speaker company by their first names and you haven't bought a new product in years. If you ask yourself...hmmm...what would PWK do? Or cite "PWK would not do that" in an arguement on a internet forum. If you can build a crossover and can't/won't fix a broken board in your fence.

Ray Garrison Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 ...no matter what your friend wants to borrow, you've got a spare one lying around somewhere.... (Patch cord? Oh sure, wait a sec, here's a box of them... Yeah, I can lend you one of my other CD players until yours comes back from the shop... Power cord? Uh, look behind the box of patch cords... Amp? Oh, I've got an old TEAC on the top shelf over there, under the Vibraplane I swapped out - no, not that, that's a tape deck, to left there next to the VCR - no, that's the NAD preamp, the TEAC is under that, sitting on the laserdisc player... COAX cable? Look in the patch cord box...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommyboy Posted March 10, 2007 Author Share Posted March 10, 2007 When your boss has a $5,000 speaker system, but he REFUSES to set it up properly, and it drives you absolutely insane when you go to his house because it defy's the whole purpose of having it in the first place. Then you go out of your way to set it up for him, free of charge, just to settle your own "audioitis". (that's a real disease you know!)

', and you refuse to step foot in his pad ever again ...if you have a spare parts department in your garage containing nearly every woofer, driver and tweeter used in all Heritage speakers. ...if you would fly to Miami at the last minute, undergo a near complete strip search because you paid cash for a one-way ticket and had no luggage, rent a van and drive 1200 miles back home, after hearing some little old lady talk about her late husband playing the music SOOOO LOOOOUUUUDDDD just to pickup a pair of 1963 Vertical Cornwalls ...if your gang stops using your real name and just refers to you as 'Rock and Roll' [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunburnwilly Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 If your system is worth more than sixteen 1993 Subaru Legacy's . If you removed the dining room table because it interfered with your setup . If your sister gave you tv trays for Christmas because you removed said table . If you dropped 3k on a subwoofer and still feel that you got a deal . If said subwoofer can open the cabinets in your kitchen . If you haven't taken a vacation in years because your still upgrading .

JetJockey Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 When you are on the road for 4 days and all you want to do is get home, sit down, fire up the gear, get that hot transformer smell happening, put on one of your fav discs, crank her up and sit back, relax and enjoy the Klipsch!
