Has anyone ever used "stacked" Heresy's
Regarding bass and the other Klipsch products Mechans mentions: I'd agree that you'd get more bass from the Belles and especially from Forte II's, but it has not been my experience that LaScala's product low bass (and I have owned two pairs). To b... 
Has anyone ever used "stacked" Heresy's
I think the Heresy makes for a great rock speaker as well. It also serves the rest of the musical spectrum quite well. If you do by a second pair, and your aim is to suplement the bass, you may want to put them side by side instead of stacking the... 
Wiring a Center Channel
Thank you. Has anyone ever tried this? What then would be an effective means of wiring a true center channel without benefit of a third amplifier? Would one just pull both hot leads to a common hot on the center, and both grounds to the common gro... 
Funniest sales pitch
Y'don't need no stinkin' blue LED's! Just tits and ass. You could sell pickled farts with T&A! Oh, and if I ever request my wife bend over that way, you can bet it ain't gonna be about reduction of standing waves. If you can get your wife to a... 
Your favorite recent discovery
Rosie Thomas, "When we were Small". Wonderful folksy earthy voice. Lament and romance with a spark of hope. Great lyrics. Beautiful voice. Marco 
Wiring a Center Channel
Kr4 - Can you explain that further...to a layperson? I'm not understanding quite how that works with two hots running to the "difference" channel. How does it differ from a 'true' center channel?Thanks for the input!Marco 
Funniest sales pitch
Â…The theory being the very best cables come from the bodies of the most scantily clad women. They grow'em right outt'a their breasts and derriers! Based on the same theory those automotive tool manufacturers use in creating those wonderful calenda... 
A little assistance please on a SS Integrated Amp
At that price point you may be able to find a used Unico Unison, which is actually a tube hybrid (uses a single tube). I've listened to one through Soliloquy 5.3's which are 90db and the combination was very satisfying. I'd bet they'd go nicely wi... 
Cars R OK, but what kind of motorcycle do you have

Musical Family Trees...
There's some very amusing references to how an obsessive collector arranges his collection in the hilarious Nick Hornby novel "High Fidelity". Stephen Frears managed to get a pretty good film from that one too, with some great comic performances b... 
Looking for an acoustic guitar recording..
You should try a search on "acoustic guitar" here as this question has been asked before. I'll add Rory Block (pretty much anything - When a Woman gets the Blues is great), Tim Reynolds and Dave Matthews if you like Dave - there's a great live alb... 
Who u gots da most uv???

Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ?
This thread should have simply been titled, "what amp do you own"...it would likely share about as much useful information as this one.Marco 
Should there only be one company making gear?
Are you suggesting that the moderator should be yankin' a boner that's not his own? You have sunk to a new low David99!Marco 
Should there only be one company making gear?
Ah, I don't think I got that far in the rulebook. I'll have to bone-up on my Agon etiquette I guess. It's thick...that rulebook. And its hard...to remember all those rules. MarcoPS...I think you meant to write; "...those poor Boners", and NOT "......
