    Shorting speaker terminals

    Okay, for the life of me I can not find a single entry addressing this topic on google. No matter how I word it, the same results come up. I didn't want to pester you people about something as mundane as this but it looks like I have to. We all know if you place a piece of wire across the...

    Kappa 9 crossover connections

    So I need some help re-connecting the crossovers after receiving them back from being rebuilt. I left short leads on the board with a piece of masking tape on each to number them. I also numbered the other side before I cut them. After hooking them back up all I get is some mid range sound from...

    Kappa 9 cabs leaky

    Just interested in opinions on the carpet style covering on the baffles. I don't see how the cabs won't have serious issues with leaking. No way you can tighten any of the drivers enough to seal them, especially the Emits. This can't help but have impedance issues as well

    Hanging for your shoulders...remedy

    So now that I've got your attention, google that title. If your shoulders are giving in or so it seems, this might be the cure. Why my son just mentioned it to me I have no idea. I'm a 62 year old drywaller/taper whose shoulders are just about kaput. Apparently, this exercise will not cause injury.

    6HB5 compactron testing

    I have about 50 of these I want to test and match up. What exactly is the procedure? I've read conflicting opinions on methodology. Some say they must be installed in the amp to test them. TIA

    62 goin' on 22

    Okay, so I know we all want to declare how young we are at heart. But which of us is brave enough to admit just how young we are in mind. No one here can identify me so I'm okay telling you all that I haven't changed a bit. My son and daughter are accomplished professionals with credentials and...

    Jimi Hendrix...in search of humility

    Winterland is a great example. Can we get a list of live performances where he's just into the music and not his ego? TIA

    Elvis impossible to find 'portrait' Spinout album

    This is the all white album with his portrait, only his face taking up the whole cover. There's an identical poster copy included inside. This is different from the sound track version widely available. Does anyone know of it?

    Giant killer (including naim)

    Some of you may remember the early Boothroyd Stuart Meridian line. The 105 monos at 100w@8ohm were considered high power back then. And they were quite capable, rivaling the top dog. But when all was said and done, it was power that limited the performance of both. The Meridians were faster...

    Tubes best with Kappa 9s?

    I came across a thread here some time ago that suggests tubes don't present the amp killer issues that ss does on these. I was wondering if anyone has corroborated this yet? Also that quite low, like 20wpch tubes will work?

    Why bother when you have internet FM?

    Honest question guys n' gals. I'm seriously considering a vintage tuner but wondering if it's just redundant. How does internet radio compare? Reception is obviously not an issue but what about overall sq?

    How old are you

    I mean how old are you really. I'm gonna be 61 in January. But I can tell you I'm still 24. I'm a drywaller/finisher my whole life since 5yrs old(my dad was). I run my own show and nothing has changed so far physically. I'll still compete with anyone at any age. I know it's coming but that's the...

    CDs sound better heated up

    Crazy but I'm convinced. I've tried this numerous times before and after, heated up with a blow dryer. I was curious. If you try it and call me nuts I'll stop, I promise.:)

    Do real men like the Supremes?

    I love Diana Ross, can't help it. I've been questioned if you know what I mean. I just need some validation before I fade away.:) Come on, be counted.

    Live albums when it's just music, no ego

    SRV are good examples as are many blues concerts. The Pretenders Isle Of View is very good. I just don't want to hear how full of themselves they are in celebration of themselves rather than the music.
