coincident speakers do you have troubadors

Wow, I feel sort of bad since I am the one who sold Horsnit the Coincident Troubadors. I also attempted to get Mr. Blume to build me a set of Trubass subs. He simply told me he would not build them and aimed me at a more expensive set of Coincident speakers for sale on Audiogon.

While I understand his reasoning for not supporting an aged set of speakers no longer in production, I could not afford to go out and spend $2800 on another set of speakers when I had just purchased the Troubadors. I had hoped that he could have steered me in a direction to someone who might build a pair for me or maybe given schematics on how to build a set (maybe he has them archived).

Either way, the Troubadors are excellent speakers and I have no doubt that Horsnit will enjoy them over several bottle of wine, cases of beer, glasses of gin, etc... you get the picture.

Maybe in the future, if I am financially capabable, I will entertain the idea of purchasing another set of Coincident speakers but for now I am bound by the economic chains of Democracy.

Horsnit, great post and sorry to see it get so out of hand over a simple question.

Trelja, I am sure you meant well as did Mr. Blume. It is easy to misinterpret what people type online since you cannot read what they may have meant to say. Good luck to you and I look forward to reading more posts from you.

Mr. Blume, thanks for a great pair of speakers. I enjoyed them for the time I owned them.

Horsnit, good luck finding someone to build you a set of Troubass subs. I am sure you will find someone who is willing to do so without costing an arm and a leg.

"Asking anyone to give you the blueprints for something he designed as part of what he does to put food on the table is pretty silly."

You know... I was trying to be polite and nice and all and I get a freakin' sarcastic, and rude response. I believe I explained why I didn't want to purchase an extremely more expensive pair since I HAD JUST BOUGHT A PAIR. I also explained that I wasn't upset with Mr. Blume.

As for your comment, which appears to be an attempt to continue a negative posting procession, Mr. Blume explained that he NO LONGER MAKES THESE SUBS. So how in the world would that be taking ANY food off of his table.

You are comparing Mr. Blume to GM but I doubt you go to a GM dealer to get your repairs done due to the fact that they charge more than most auto shops. Nor do you go the the GM Facility where your vehicle was made since they will refuse to do it there. Mr. Blume DOES do repairs on his speakers and DOES attempt to help albeit not necessarily the way we may want him to.

You have given an inept attempt to compare apples and oranges here. Your lack of ability to "read into" a post, and the use of preconceived notions as to what you already plan to say, show your lack of neutrality on this topic.

" There is plenty to criticise in the audio industry, but this isn't one of them."

Thanks for the criticisim on my post and I couldn't agree with you more.

Hey Horsnit, sure don't have one anymore... they closed it over a year ago and put hundreds of people out of work.

Maybe Jimaxp knows a good speaker company you can take your Ford to to get it fixed?

I'm sorry was that my outside voice?

What I meant was "no ma'am there isn't but you're welcome to come on by and say howdy anytime".

I am setting my new speakers up to "Bi-Amp" but that's another topic for another time I suppose. Don't let me accidentally "Hijack" this topic.

"I for one,appreciated your well written and thoughtful response.It made perfect sense."

Montjay you Butt Kisser...lmao...just kiddin'

Ok Ok I am outta this thread before I start having too much fun.
