el jopez Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 By now we have all seen Picky's Ref 7 HT advertised as a model of inspiration in several print and online magazines. Not sure if this has been posted but Best Buy's "Best" magazine has Glenn's HT included as an example of extreme HT makeovers. Though Klipsch wasn't explicitly plugged in this article, the copper cones beautifully stand out. But there is a one page spread for Klipsch's Synergy flat panel speakers. Check it out: http://images.bestbuy.com/BestBuy_US/en_US/images/global/bestmag/issue-07-09/index.html Picky, did you or your wife ever imagine the notoriety that would ensue with your "extreme makeover"? Kudos nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picky Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 el jopez: Hey, thanks for the head's-up that the article had come out! I began working on it along with the author, Krissy Rushing, back in June and I knew the story was ready, but we didn't know the exact date it would be released. She had contacted me about doing it the day before I drove to Indianapolis for the Klipsch Pilgrimage this year. Thanks for posting the link to it and for the kudos. I'm sure you can imagine that neither my wife nor I had any idea of the amount of attention our room has gotten ever since its first appearance in 'Home Theater Magazine' in its enclosed 'Audio Video Interiors' supplement back in June 2006. It seems to be one thing after another now about every six months or so. It's really a nice feeling to hear such praise from others about your work. We both remain very flattered and it's still hard for us to believe. Thanks again for thinking enough of our theater's mention in 'Best Magazine' to take the time to post his thread! -Glenn & Verna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel's wife Posted September 11, 2007 Moderators Share Posted September 11, 2007 Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Picky.

j-malotky Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Glen Craig has me talked into going to karma next spring. I would LOVE to see your system. I'll get to MI sometime. I have some family living in the Monroe area. May be a good chance to catch up with them too. JM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picky Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 j-malotky: You must know by now that you are always welcome here. Monroe is only 30 minutes south of us (if that far) as we live only 1-1/4 miles from I-75 and less than a mile from I-94 so we are centrally located. Give us a shout if you happen to be coming to our area! -Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLSamuel Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 Congratulations Picky! That's a beautiful room... inviting and fun and a great home theater. Also congratulations on your recent weight loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
