  2. I was fortunate enough to have met him during the LRC tour. He was very nice to me. I drove him in a nice stretch Lincoln from the private airport in Milwaukee to his performance. I thought it was gracious that when I picked him up he remembered my name.

    Hey guys. I have seen this mentioned a few times but all the links I saw were for 2015 or not available to me. Can someone link me so I can see dates etc? Itch
  5. The single speaker is supposed to be facing towards the listening area allowing the eight drivers to use the back and side walls for reflection (if your room is configured at right angles with no impediments or obstructions.) I use mine mostly for background music or to blow the doors off the house, having mine reversed with the eight drivers pointed toward the listening area. I do use them in conjunction with a powered sub. Makes a world of difference. (No highs, now lows, must be BOSE.) The effect (not for the audio purist) of them configured this way on a track like Wish You Were Here is awesome. Again, how things sound is an individual assessment. I bought a few pairs and reformed them. I then bought a really beat up pair for $50 on CL and sent them to Bose... They will send you a brand new pair with equalizer for $500. S
  6. Yes THANK YOU ... the methadone was not cutting it!
  7. Dennis, I tracked down the previous owner of this and he said that Richard did the mod. Can you tell from the pics above if that looks right? Thanks!
  8. You're not going to lose me... There are two 1.0t amps for sale here in Denver. I have a M&K speaker I may trade in and buy both of them to be mkII mod as I move up the list. I bought the 500t because I love the meters! We'll see if mine was truly a mkII soon.
  9. It may be short lived... see above
  10. An understatement for sure, but you can still clearly see how slanted Fox is. PLEASE, NO POLITICS!
  11. Considering I have not purchased any vinyl since 1985 when began listening to CDs ..... My collection includes Sinatra to Quadrophenia. I don't get the equator joke but I do live closer to the sun than most.
  12. Actually, the audio is a different system for my A/V . I will take some pics and post when I figure out the picture upload on my mac. It's powered by Parasound amps. Steve
  13. I honestly don't remember. My family purchased the AT for me a few months ago and I finally hooked it up. I have been playing a ton of vinyl in the last few hours. (Yes I know the 901's are reversed!)
  14. Ugh... how do edit and flip here? Sorry for any stiff necks.
  15. -Funny Post! But... I am not sure of your affiliation with the mods (please no flames mr rodman.) -The method of payment on Paypal was via my checking account.
  16. -Such a warm reception! -Yes, "itchy" was forced upon me during fraternity hell week. Stuck for 35 years now. -I am not sure if I will pursue anything more than some type of credit for the damage from the seller (he offered $60 ugh.) It looks as if this was the first sale for him. If I return it, it will be back on eBay at a reduced price and more shipping costs. I retained the box, although the foam he used is pretty gross, like from a hospital mattress -Dennis, based upon the number of posts you have I assume you are an expert here. I really don't want to sound like my wife when we ran in to Dennis Rodman and she asked me who is Dennis Rodman. Steve (Itch)
  17. The entire process was a cluster. He didn't insure it (blamed me for not telling him to.) It was packed in some gross old foam in a paper thin box. Not double boxed. No protection for the edges. No returns. Long winded eBay messages with a condescending tone. Overtly stating that if I knew anything about audio equipment this would be an easy fix with some hand tools. When I mentioned that I learned how to etch boards when I was 10 years old he still accused me of not being appreciative of fine electronics nor my purchase. Moving on!
