  1. Socially distant? They're only separated by a few inches, and everyone knows condiments are not 100% foolproof!

    I like my porn vintage!
  3. Have a phenomenal day!
  4. Happy Birthday!
  5. Have a fantastic day!
  6. The Cherry is lighter than the speakers, but will darken quickly next to the window. I have a vented front plate coming for the top space. The cooling fan sits in that space, and is really quiet.

    Makes perfect since really... A completely unpredictable system, for a completely unpredictable guy. And yes, he was a nice guy. And he had a right to his opinions. He just didn't want any criticism of those opinions, and that was never going to happen here.
  8. Have a spectacular day!

    I wonder how MAGA rallies sounded on that system?
  10. I did want a Nehru jacket, but never found one. Senior picture. Anyone remember Angels Flight suits?
  11. Like many people here, I use the hospital grade cords... They work great.
  12. Life can be difficult growing up with a "hipness" level far exceeding those around you! 🤪
  13. Around the same time as Joy to the World was first getting airplay. my Mother made me and my two brothers bell bottoms with matching large vests (not unlike the guy to the far left on the album cover). We were the hippest dudes in school. Mine was rainbow stripes, so even before the LGBTQ community adopted the rainbow flag (1978), I was flying the colors!
  14. I was first introduced to Carl Reiner as Alan Brady, on the Dick Van Dyke show. Little did I know then how much joy and laughter he would bring to the world. Certainly one of the greats, R.I.P. Sir.
  15. I'm really wanting some striped bell bottoms.
  16. Second coat of finish. I still have rack rails to install, to hold the gear. The holes are vents, which will get black mesh behind them.
  17. Bohlander-Graebner ribbon super tweeters and Dayton Audio full range drivers, both from Parts Express. Luvdunhill did all the calculations for interior volume, port and he built the crossovers. They sound amazing! I liked the way I grooved the Cherry baffles, so decided to make the new rack a similar look. There's a little more about the speaker build on pages 13 and 14 of this thread.
  18. That's sweet Nate! As for me... I'm planning on getting back into vinyl, so I purchased a Parasound Zphono USB. I can also digitize any albums I might want to. But that left me with a dilemma, as the rack I built for My Parasound Z stack won't fit any more gear. So today I built a new rack to accommodate all seven Z units. It's in the first coat of finish, and I still need to attach the rack mounting hardware, but it might just resemble the speakers I built about 2 years back. Pics within a few days.
  19. Some of those leftovers, plus the addition of some Bourbon/Bacon sausage, made for an amazing lunch!
  20. shouldn't you eat them instead?
  21. You guys are crazy and certainly not trying to help this poor guy. The obvious answer here is the AKG K1000.

    Jim, I was going to argue that it's quite possible that it could belong to a married gay couple. Then I noticed the plywood speaker and component plinths. Not possible!
  23. Electronic or mechanical? If you had to drop the fuel tank, that's a big job!
  24. Have an incredible day!
