Thanks Iso.I'm now in Florida living on a lake, 2500 feet from the ocean. Life is good. Fully retired, writing novels.How have you been??? What are you using for a system these days?Larry

Best Speakers You Have Ever Heard In Your Home
This is L. R. Staples, former Director of Marketing for THIEL Audio, and founder of LSA Group.I'm wondering if there's any interest in bookshelf speakers these days. With the flagging of audio product in high end audio, it seems that speakers are ... 
Von Schweikert VR-6 or Wilson Audio Watt/Puppies 5
This thread is funny.Knowing that Albert Von Schweikert has multiple Audiogon pseudonyms and uses them to ask AND answer questions, I'm not sure if these last two, might not be some of his.As a matter of fact, I will assure you that Fplanner2000 i... 
Von Schweikert VR-6 or Wilson Audio Watt/Puppies 5
With Von Schwikert's, keep the deposit and dont deliver the product to the consumer, I'd think that you might want to reevaluate your position.He does, that is Albert Von Schweikert...take deposits and not deliver. I personally collected $30K for ... 
Has anyone had any luck in contacting Dale Pitcher
No, this doctor is in Louisville, Kentucky, did nothing but give the Sub Woofers to Dale Pitcher to have them sold or upgraded...they disappeared, as did he. Typical of his behavior for the past years that I've known him.But the larger issue is th... 
Has anyone had any luck in contacting Dale Pitcher
My current issue is...a doctor, my own physician, who spent thousands with me/Pitcher...Dale collected his $20K Subwoofers some years back, and still has them. No explanation, no contact. He is simply a ghost when he owes the customers a response.... 
Has anyone had any luck in contacting Dale Pitcher
Caveat Emptor....This guy led several of my old customers on a merry chase for 'deposits' collected on a Preamp...for years...YEARS.He is, simply stated, a crook.If you chose to deal with him, you've made a mistake...I know I did, and it WAS a mis... 
Who is the World's Best 'New' Female Vocalist
Mark,You are MORE than welcome...one of the greatest parts of this sometimes insane hobby, is sharing artists and recordings which we find to be spectacular.As a repeat...for anyone who doesn't own Nancy Wilson and Cannonball Adderley...it's a mus... 
Thiel CS 3.7 and Vandersteen 5a, 5a Carbon
Hmmmm,It's odd that the THIEL/Vandersteen debate still goes on...some 30 years after I opened my Audio Store in Louisville. Since we all 'hear' so differently its not surprising that one man's 'dark' is another's smooth, or that one man's bright, ... 
Anyone heard Glenn Frey's New Album, After Hours?
Thanks Mo...Yeah, lots of artists seem to pay homage to the classics at some point.I agree with your assessment. Nobody will ever accuse (in my opinion) Frey of having dulcet tones, or a beautiful voice...but the arrangements make this a good bet,... 
Analytical or Musical Which way to go?
Einstein once said:"Everything that can be counted does not necessarily count; everything that counts cannot necessarily be counted."To my way of thinking this is apropos to this thread...right down to the ground.When designing a loudspeaker, the ... 
I'm on StereoTimes...
Frogman,Thanks so much for reading...as well as the kind words.Funny...at the ripe old age of 34, I took lessons again, after not having done so for 15 years...I took them from a master teacher, world renowned actually.God, I loved to play...made ... 
Floorstanders with a large sweetspot
Great answer Drew eckhardt,As a devotee for years of First Order Crossovers because of the phase correct delivery, I overlooked the directionality that they impart.Its almost as if the Laws of Physics conspire to give us that dogmatic, equal and o... 
I'm on StereoTimes...
Thanks Adam, Corazon, Charles 1 dad.That moment in time was really special. As I said in the article...as a fledgling player, hearing Miles Davis do Chromatic Scales was kind of an epiphany. Who would have thought (at that age) that guys like him ...
