Hey K.....tt, Do you even have speakers??


If so, please enlighten us all as to your current system!  My guess is casio clock radio, on isolation platforms in a tuned room of course!

  I was just reflecting on 9 years of this hobby, and every pair of my 50+ speakers has brought me immense satisfaction.  Why are you so sad and disgruntled but more importantly, if you hate hifi, mainly speakers, why do you come here?

*S* Any speaker that you like/love is Valid..if only to yourself.  Ultimately, that's what counts, right?  To paraphrase, different gears for different ears. (Oh, stop groaning...you come up with better..)

A recent OP claimed 30 different amps with 12 different speakers over 5.5 years...querying that claim, he has somewhat rational explanation for such behaviour.  Fine...takes a lot of souls to fill a highway...*shrug*

Personally, I've 12 pairs, 3 subs...2/3rds of which are in line currently. This doesn't include 2 pairs 'under construction', and a motley group of this 'n that which face some sort of cruel and ghastly fate at my hands....

And that doesn't include the materials I have, on hand, to create (OMG!) 2 pairs of DML's....just because I feel the need to do so....

"WTF, Why?!"  You may ask...

I could threaten to hook them all up, @ once, play them at ungodly levels, and attempt to create a sonic singularity....or some other muddy secret for y'all to behold...."A tale, told by an idiot..."  Or, looking outside..."It's the Dark side of the moon...."

No, it's just me, wasting your eyes and semi-conscious reading this nonsense..*L*

Carry on, kenjit...Someone's got to be the devil's advocate. *G* ;)
(...post #801....*hmph*)
I think when I get to #901, I'll do it ALL CAPS....seems appropo...
Personally I don't use MDF all that much....makes great countertops, though.

I'd like to think that most of what's occurring here is 'relatively' good-natured teasing over each other's foibles...hopefully, preferably...

I mean,  Everyone has a pair...

(Speakers...stop that...)

Own as many as you want...in any flavour, size, response, cost.  If a Casio cuts the cadence for you, Kewl.
Hire a hall, and invite 50 of them....someone on eBay was selling an enormous 'wall full' of JBL's that would need a ton of amps...and that potentially could be all class D's....

If K has 'mystery' units, fine.  If they curl his toes, wonderful.
But, it does answer the 'original query': Yes, he does.
All gawds' chilllin' gots speakers.

Ok, settled.  Now, let's argue about....cables! Yeah! That's always good for about....*mmmm*....30 odd pages...and I do mean odd....;)

(I'll stop ranting now....) 
Actually...as little as possible....radical, Yes. *G*

And what there is of it...is PVC....foamed sheet, aka Sintra.

Yes, I can hear you snicker....but, then again...I'm Not building boxes....;)
