I can dig it.

So, in the end, Trebek wins? 94 movie credits on IMDB. So many movies I'd forgotten Connery was even in. Maybe time to check some of em out.

I have that Callaway WarBird. Never could hit it very well, 9 degrees loft is too flat for my swing. Key thing to check on these old drivers is the shaft; any serious nicks or damage and I'd steer clear.

I'm kinda glad that someone else came here to cover that show. I often feel like I was the only one watching it. I don't have bad vibes about the wrap-up; so many times networks would just ignore fan input and not bother with an encore. At least they "tried". Firefly gets a lot of love.... I...

I received a similar reply on CL for a couple items; neither vintage nor special. It's just a hook to get someone to kick off a funds transfer. Delete the replies and move on.

Love the wood parts... I wonder how heat-stable that polycarbonate is. Having worked in a CD factory, I can still smell the hot plastic being formed into discs. Ugh.

I can confirm that those are not the original woofers. They look like some cheapo GRS woofers I bought from PE to try before I put in the Dayton Audio drivers (and the GRS weren't very good). Tweeter and mid look original. Yes, it's veneer, and fairly tough; I moved mine all over the place and...

I saw ZZ Top in 82 when video made them a big deal. There was a nondescript guy (roadie?) playing rhythm guitar in the side/back of the stage, mostly out of view; no intro or acknowledgement. Who else does that to their fellow musicians? Haven't read through the entire thread yet... but must...

I ditched Netflix a few years ago. Hated their online interface, had watched everything I wanted to watch (including all of the Trailer Park Boys ;) ... now it's the occasional watch on Amazon Prime. Wish they'd give me an employee discount.

Well I didn't think this thread would ever come back to life... I have a pair of these '885' things as well. A clue to their use can be found on the sticker shown in one of the pics; these were part of a set with a 25" TV (cabinetted in the same veneer-over-particle board), thus the 'Video...

I do, in the black finish. I had a pair of Monitor 40 - II that went with it. It's not currently hooked up (I sold the Monitor 40s); while I ran it I found it a bit shouty in the mids, which in some ways might work for a voice-first audio channel but I didn't find it pleasant. I briefly had a...

The IL10, with same body type but one less driver, must be quite different from my IL40s to conclude that they're short on bass, but that seems to be a popular opinion. ASR is an odd bunch imo. Let em have their food fight.

Glass cutter? Missing a wheel, I think.

Quarantine, I wish. Been working the 'essential' job nonstop for the past few months, haven't made time to do much audio stuff. So one day went to the local MicroCenter and sprung for an audio card for my most recent PC build (good performance but which had some really meh sound). ASUS Xonar...

I have a pair that was given to me a couple years ago; haven't played them a lot but after some minor repair (they were abandoned in a rental), they sound pretty good. Gotta keep em away from the wall though; the rear port delivers an unusual amount of bass, especially if not given space. In...

My job is deemed 'essential' so I've been listening to America's Truckin Network on the way home at night, same schedule as always, with modest free/quiet time at home. Maybe one of these days...

I was not prepared for that second pic. I mean.... why??

Rectified spirits... so it goes down but doesn't come back up, right? (Which at 96% would be a miracle) Am working for a very large, well-known company who delivers packages in a very short time. Corporate ppl working from home already. For the peons, no changes to policy except if you're sick...

Late to this thread... I see the buy has been made. Just wanted to note Allen organ stuff has been hanging out on my local CL for quite awhile now; here's one listing for much less cash but I don't know if the parts are comparable (there are also speakers out there too). No affiliation...

Currently I can receive (with what I would call a usable signal) about 17-18 stations, out of 44 listed on Radio Locator (https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/locate?select=city&city=43221&state=OH) ... I wish I could get WOSA (101.1) which is the only classical in the area but it's either modest...

As I've probably demonstrated in earlier posts, I know very little of the vinyl industry, but this doesn't look good. https://consequenceofsound.net/2020/02/vinyl-supply-threatened-fire-lacquer-manufacturer/ Company website: https://www.apollomasters.com/

Been offline a bit, so missed the start of this thread. Would've been some good info to have, as last week I took my 10-year old Visio (40") off the wall, and bought a new LG 50" 4K thing. Picture's fine (and the audio's plenty strong. 20W probably means 10 per channel, but still), but I already...

Generally, the pay structure is hourly wage right now (at least $15/hr), but as with many Amazon things, could change anytime. AFAIK the drivers load their own vans, around 150-200 packages in a load, and work 10 hour shifts (edit: I *think* length of shift used to be determined by computed...

Who knows, they might make an interesting sound... when dropped from a tall building...

ok, sometimes I post about cheap crap that nobody wants, it's b/c I rarely see anything high-end on my CL.... all part of my learning about this audio stuff. SO... here's something different. Is $8750 a rational price for these? "Factory serviced". No affiliation, and I'd buy a new car before...
