One of my favorite pieces of music. The subwoofers I built I burned them in with this. You rattle some windows.Dude these Epos 12.2 kick butt. They are perfect for this little room. This is making my ears tired from listening to so many different sounds at once. LOL Plus I'm a little over the weather. LOL Taking some pretty big hits on the market today. I wonder why? Do I want to really test the Bellari? I got solder to stick on the bottom. Have a feeling if it doesn't work. It may never work. LMBO This has been one of my better days. Just put the Travelling Willburys on. Here are pics of what I'm doing.

A very good day. That is my mantle clock I bought a long time ago. Giant Clock computer table. LOL Watching the markets and crying. LOL

 

[Fairchild]

I see a Kiss album on the floor.

[speakerman1]

No record in it. Don't think I own any. lol Now i have to break out the planer.

 

[speakerman1]

Yes Steven I remember. To the person who I promised a tape. It is half done. LOL Oh if you are waiting me to ship. They have left. Will be on the left coast Friday. LOL Listening to the tape I made. Haven't done this in awhile. This is about the time I started this thread in another forum. Many years gone by. Which is sad in a way. You know who I own none of? Bruce Springsteen can't stand the guy. Lost a lot of money yesterday. Not smiling at all. Heard a Brit yesterday ask. We are running away from a Socialist form of Govt. You guys are enacting it. Why? Little toasty this AM. Think I will bring the BL in here to record off of. Let me think about it. Have a good day. I'm going to try

 

[speakerman1]

Listening to some Van Halen. Last side of the tape

 

[speakerman1]

Just put some Floyd on. Had the fireplace on. This is the immersion box set. It is sort of funny. Women don't hold guns like men. LOL Some good tunes. Been crying for the last few days. Yea Germany is making my stock take a big hit. Very bad movie on TV. LMBO Very very bad. LOL A very good morning. Sometimes I forget the little things. Being able to sit in my living room listening to Floyd at 6 AM. In this state of mind. God is good. Starting to get light out and so am I. LOL That is the cleanest my bench has been in years. LOL Wanna Take A Bath? LOL Think about what I am listening to. LOL Do you remember when THE Wall came out? Right now I'm at the What was I doing and why stage. LOL At this moment in time. I am thinking about music in the garage. Need to insulate my garage door. About to hook up my heater. Will see in a bit if it is working. I wonder if the Pres. is thinking about his legacy. I am hoping so. Trust me he is in my prayers. Start hanging my stash bins. LOL Well gotta go. Have A Good Day I am.

Larry, what's that big monitor with what looks like a ribbon in one of your pics above?

I'm listening to Bill Evans "Explorations". This is on CD and the one that started my interest in his music.
Thinking of Floyd, I also have Roger Waters "Amused to Death". What an amazing album.

 

[speakerman1]

Which pic? Probably a big monitor I had in the garage.

 

[Pure_Brew]

You have 5 pics a couple posts back. Look up. /\

 

[speakerman1]

What ribbon though. I went and looked. I didn't see a ribbon on a monitor?

 

[Pure_Brew]

Maybe it's not a ribbon (tweeter) but it is the speaker closest to the camera in this pic:

id circle it but I'm on the phone here. Looks like a vinyl sleeve on it.

 

[speakerman1]

That is a Norman Lab.

Oh Was wondering if growing up in a one horse hick town. Molded me in any way. Nights like tonight my Dad would take me to the country store. There would be a wood fire going. The men would be setting there swapping stories. I got a bottle of pop and would just sit there and listen. It was an honor just to be included. So I never bothered them or my Dad. As a child you did not talk in adult conversations. Children were to be seen not heard. If you ever forgot your place in life and spoke. First you got a look then you were told in no uncertain terms were you going to be able to sit down. When you got home. LOL My family didn't want to have spoiled kids around. It was cool to hang with your Uncles. They were your role models. Butchering day was just a blast. Every weekend someone was butchering. We butchered 3 hogs a year. The men were outside and the women were in the kitchen cooking. You got fresh liver or pork tenderloin. The next weekend you went and helped someone else. You always have the same head butcher. That was my Uncle Norman. He doesn't buy much of anything from the store. He use to only plow with horses or mules. When you went to visit if he was plowing. You would sit outside and they would talk. You knew you were growing up when he would tell you he was going to sit down and I could plow. A 12 inch bottom plow on the back of some pretty big animals. To do it and plow straight was the chore. Or someone offered you a chaw of tobacco. I started chewing tobacco at 10. I dipped many years. I swallowed it. I kissed many a girl with a dip in my mouth. LOL Just sitting here thinking about achieving goals. Some are met without even you knowing. We all have goals that we ascertain to everyday. If I wake up. I have met my goal for the day. LOL No really! LOL Been a good day I guess. I'm in a pretty good frame of mind. Just put The Who "Live At The Hull" Now the New Aerosmith. I'm liking it better than the new ZZ Top. Different sound. Doing some pretty good jams. Have I ever mentioned I hate headphones. See you later.

 

[speakerman1]

Started listening to the Aerosmith again. found wire for the P2P wiring. I really like the early Aerosmith. Not so much the later stuff. Gotta super glue my solder sucker. Not bad music. Toys In The Attic was a very good Lp. Couple tunes sound like the older stuff. The last few LPs they did. They went commercial. Didn't like them to much. Some good tunes. Don't know if I would buy it.

Just put some Joe Walsh "Ordinary Average Guy" Joe is pretty funny at times. One of my favorite songs. The acoustic version of Hotel California. He does very well. It seems he doesn't take himself very serious. LOL

I'm learning lessons. LOL Never read a schematic while in certain frames of mind. LOL I changed the wrong resistors. LMBO Maybe not. LOL I think I'm losing what little thought process I had left. LMBO I'm on another tangent on the plane of life. Started building the garage system. See what I can do with a Denon 6 disc CDP. Now the little HK amp. I'll bring the 1200 out here for playback. Bring the CVs out here. I bought the CVs for 15.00. The surrounds were rotted so I had them refoamed. Nope they didn't have any red/orange what ever color they are.

Here is a flawed finish. LOL

 

[speakerman1]

Just put Joe Cocker "Mad Dogs & Englishmen" Now I have a garage system. Lee thank you so much for undertaking this project. Listening to some Dead. Not to bad for a garage system. A friend gave me the little HK amp. May try some little tricks to better the CDP. Just put some Gov't Mule on. Oh Live at The Roseland Some pretty good tunes. Sounds like a lot of synergy there. LOL Wonder if having the SP 12 in the line up helps it? Checking my mail at my other address. The lights are on but no one is home. And I Like It! Very good tuneage as they use to say back in the cave man day. LOL This is some very good music. I took a pic. I had to remove the cord to hook up the little Behringer inline USB DAC and Phonoamp. I use it to do all my measurements on the decks. I may have to get this CD. Has anyone ever did a SCUD run? Your flying 300 feet off the deck. One person flying and one looking for power lines on the Jeppsen. If they are 1000 feet or higher you go under. If lower you go over. You are flying lower than radar. LOL I haven't drank in 10 years. Lately I can taste good Vodka. Good Vodka you can drink like water. Some of you guys like Crown. I never cared for it at all. As much beer as I drank the Beast. Some very good morning jams. It is Sunday. So to do my thing today. I try very hard not to have any ill will in my heart. So far so good. If I can do it one day then why can't I do it every day. I see no reason why I should not be able to do it. I'm not a happy person when my alter ego is sitting on my shoulder planting the snide remarks. I may not say them. I sure think them. That is why I took some time off. Don't like having animosity in life. In no shape form or any other way. The Bassist is doing some jamming. May get a garage door with windows one day. Very well rounded sound. Nothing is more pronounced than anything else.. Gotta love good music. I know it is doing some jamming when you get goose bumps. Need to get a die grinder. Working with resin you need one. Warren is bending some strings.

Carly had to go on a business trip. Sitting in the garage. Mood lighting on. Life may be to good. If you can put a system together in a matter of minutes. Just put the new BCC "Afterglow" on. I figure if I haven't used something in a few years. I don't need it. Someone needs it more than I do. Found a pound of Kester 48 for 20.00 so I bought it. I think Chickenfoot died. Haven't heard much about them in a little while now. Got the swivel neck going at the moment. The confusion of everyday life is sitting among us. Really I try very hard not to have confusion. That doesn't mean I can't be proven wrong. I like being wrong. Means I am still learning. The 48 has copper in it also plus the 4% silver. I had to buy a pound of solder for 20.00. See what happens here. Says it has a low melting point. I found it on Amazon. Joe Bonamassa can play. He has a work ethic that is killer. I have found a lot of music in Europe.

 

[speakerman1]

Listening to BCC "Live Over Europe" Trying to equate it to someone they sound like. Can't think of anyone. They do have their own sound. Quit watching the news except to go to sleep. LOL So which is better. 1/2 speed or doing it at 45? Gotta go take some cough medicine. I have a wicked cough this AM. LOL Just about to level off into level flight. Going no where fast. Thanks to me. I heard a TT hum this morning. I hate when that happens. Always something to pique your ears. Guess I could kick back and continue on my Floyd journey. See ya later gator.

 

[speakerman1]

Listening to America. Something I observed today. Today I listened to two systems with the same music. The living room and garage. While in the garage it sounds good. Then I went to the living room. Sometimes I wonder if I heard was right. Well as soon as I turned it up and went to do something. As soon as I stood still I could hear a difference. The LR was more defined and more well rounded. One instrument or voice didn't stand out. I can here every instrument equally. I hate when the lead singer drowns everyone else out. I like all the sounds even. So I can pick out what I want to listen to. Just hit Thin Lizzy "Live At The High Voltage Festival" I really like the "Cowboy Song" Just went looking for some Joe Walsh. Just went to one playlist. 367 tracks 1 day is what it says. The very 1st song is Heart "Barracuda" LOL Thought I would throw out a chuckle. Just for GP. LOL You sure smile a lot. If I didn't I would be crying. LOL Welp it is good night for me. Much a do about nothing. LOL

As we meander towards out light. What ever it may be

 

[speakerman1]

Finally turned my heat on. I like the 85.00 electric bills. LOL Still listening to the play list. I do like Fleetwood Mac.

 

[speakerman1]

I really like this band. Porcupine Tree. Listening to all they have on Spotify. Ordered a bunch of Black dye. Some bendable wood and going to get some oak so when making frames it doesn't split. Suppose to get the Kester today.It went from RI to NC now it is coming to me. LOL 5 days. Great service. LOL We are jammin at the moment. Now I can quit waiting on some projects. Need to clean up the Nikko. Got a hum on the phono side. Think I may hook the laptop up to the sound room. It is used as a very nice bedroom when people come over. It is a good unemotional day. LOL

I Am The Jester I Am The Clown LMBO
Have a good day I am.
