jp11801 Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 Nice! Looks like they got your rocks off. Aha ha. magic audiophile rocks were not included I had to pay for them separately
guzziguy Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 John, big congrats on your speakers. I have no doubt that they sound amazing. How many speakers have you gone through since moving to CA? How many months has John been in CA? Just take that number and divide it by 3.
jp11801 Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 just the Klipsch Heresys to see what they were all about and the LSA monitors that while really good did not work for me. I have had my eye on the Alon Lotus series for a few years and if a Lotus Elite Signature came up at a good price I would dump this pair for them of if some Alon Circes came up same thing but for now these are brilliant. Anyone in the area want to hear them just drop me a line
tyrion Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 Nothing new. Jp, congrats on the speakers! I'm glad it worked out for you.
jp11801 Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 you and me to if I had spent 14 hours on the road for a big zero I'd be pissed now just a short wait and this will be in the house
Smeggy Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 Just put in my order for a Y1 DAC from Mister X
Dusty Chalk Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 JPNumbs -- I think I got you beat, I drove 14 hours/day over two days for a pair of speakers once. Of course, your speakers are nicer, I think. I never listen to mine (they're too big).
en480c4 Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 (edited) All the parts to make this: Including this: And I'll be ordering my glass mosaic tile tomorrow for the backsplash... Edit: Unassembled in my den: All to fill this space, which is coming along nicely... Edited January 25, 2009 by en480c4
Sherwood Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 Red lentil patties sound wonderful to me. Recipe? Yay! YGPM.
boomana Posted January 26, 2009 Report Posted January 26, 2009 Ian, love the green glass for a back splash. I keep thinking I need to start spending money on my home, making it look nice, but then I always seem to find other things to spend money on and say "nevermind" to myself again. At least your post got me thinking again.
Voltron Posted January 26, 2009 Report Posted January 26, 2009 Your backsplash is almost the exact mix of colors as ours in glass 1x1 tiles.
en480c4 Posted January 26, 2009 Report Posted January 26, 2009 Thanks everyone. I'm pretty excited. My kitchen wasn't just an apartment kitchen that carried over from the condo conversion. It was a SHITTY apartment kitchen that carried over! So this is a huge change, and I can't wait to have the space to actually cook for a change. And I went back and forth about the backsplash... The place I found that had both the varied sizes and the 1x1, and I decided to go with the one pictured. But it was a tough call, as the 1x1 is very nice looking as well.
en480c4 Posted January 26, 2009 Report Posted January 26, 2009 2 tickets to see Neko Case @ the Berklee Performance Center in Boston, MA on April 11th.
thrice Posted January 26, 2009 Report Posted January 26, 2009 2 tickets to see Neko Case @ the Berklee Performance Center in Boston, MA on April 11th. 2 tickets to see Neko Case in Raleigh on April 7th Thanks for the heads up there.... I figured she would be touring soon since her new album is coming out soon.
Dusty Chalk Posted January 26, 2009 Report Posted January 26, 2009 I just want to "do" her -- is that so wrong?
Hopstretch Posted January 26, 2009 Report Posted January 26, 2009 Depends whether you kill her in the furnace room first.

n_maher Posted January 27, 2009 Report Posted January 27, 2009 Haven't decided which I'll buy yet (have the option of either) but Saturday I picked up a Tek 465 (w/ spare parts scope) and the previously mentioned 7633. Got both working last night and was able to check them with their respective calibration signals.
