    Wife and Speaker refoam?

    My wife won't try and do it herself, but she is very good at standing next to me telling me how I'm doing it wrong.

    Considering the Forte I. Will my Crown PS-400 be too powerful?

    I turn my gain up to about the 4 o clock position at least or even all the way up if they are very silent and then use the volume control on my Marantz AVR to adjust the level. That way all the power is there if needed for any transients or sudden bursts and I don't have to fiddle with the gain...

    When media speakers just won't do.

    I bet it sounds grand. The speakers look right at home to me.

    Rti12 first impressions

    Wow! How's that? I picked these up yesterday for a fair price I think and boy do they sound really really good. That's just bringing them in, plopping them down and turning them on, no nothing. First impressions, 1. Big and heavy, very solid. Great build quality except the flimsy plastic feet...

    Blasphemy Right?

    I'm guessing that's an Altec horn on a Klipsch cab?

    Get the amp of your dreams, then this happens. Life is fickle.

    I hope your mother gets better quickly. Best wishes and good luck.

    AMC 2100 scrubdown

    Sounded great, the outside was perfectly clean. Inside, not so much. I wonder if the performance will improve?

    RCA tube amp

    I don't know how many watts this is, maybe 4 or 5 I'm guessing but it really sounds just great and that's with FM and AM radio. Country music and light rock is sublime. Wow I am impressed. That's with it cobbled together sitting on the floor with all the original everything. I am getting ready...

    opinions please best small package Speakers?

    Best is only judged by your ears. Budget wise and sound wise,IMHO you just can't go wrong with the 50% off sales Klipsch has on their bookshelf R51. $175 brand new for the pair and you can use anything to drive them. Of course YMMV and this is only my singular opinion.

    RCA tube amp

    I am not conducting any transactions. It is not for sale or I would've used the appropriate forum. I was simply responding to another member showing interest. If it was to go any further before any real discussion took place I of course would go to the right place. Thanks for being so quick on...

    Dynaco a25 woofer blown?

    My A10 voice coil wire came loose from where it was riveted to the fiberboard as stated above on one woofer and it sounded very similar. It was a very easy fix to secure and all is well.

    What have I got here?

    Actually it was installed and working and sou ding very nice when I last saw it. It powered all 3 12 inch 3 way speakers nicely IMHO. That was just a month or so ago, so it works with no static or anything because I was playing with the bass and treble and volume knobs that that time and...

    What have I got here?

    I have the 3 pin to bare wire original connectors, and being the rca is a speaker out, one pair can be left and the out can be right. I think?!?

    What have I got here?

    Wow. Lost already. I have got a lot to learn. I know the tubes say 6v6 but single ended got me. Should I hook up my cd player to the tape input RCA jack with a "y" connector, hook up a speaker and see what happens? Everything's fused so I shouldn't hurt anything. Plus with only one speaker...

    RCA tube amp

    Just wondering if the unit or the tubes may be worth anything before it goes into the great unknown pile of stuff in the basement. All tubes are original and they all work. Pulled from a console (not by me) that was working and sounding great IMHO.

    What have I got here?

    This tuner and amp were pulled from an older console and they both work great. I know less than zero about any of this so please if someone can help me that would be fantastic and greatly appreciated. My questions are: 1. Besides the obvious amp and tuner, what are these specifically? SET or...

    Ideas for this bench vise??

    Always nice to see a fellow Kentuckian taking up a project. I somehow feel an immediate kindredship. Maybe it's the bluegrass and bourbon in our blood that connects all people from Kentucky. The vice is looking great and I'm sure every hour you spend on it is an hour well spent. It doesn't...
