Thanks all. I'm around seldom, as life has changed, but miss it. I shall go in search of the wank thread.

Soundstagedirect.com I think I did it right, and the rest of you didn't. ;)

I love the "what's the resale value of your porcelain cat collection" (or whatever) line. I get to use that if the issue ever comes up, since this hobby (just like poker) has been a net profit (I've got spreadsheets to prove it), and with not a single penny invested right now, the reasonable...

Yeah, I know. But I rarely look at BIN prices. Just like I don't figure my stereo gear is worth what Oak Tree (or whatever they're called) is asking for them. I mostly pay attention to what they actually sold for. And I've sold a few records on ebay - usually when I accidentally notice...

Thought I'd briefly mention how nice this move is. But the stacking is awkward. I swapped my main active setup out today after thinking about it for way too long, and wow. I've had my freaking huge and blue Pioneer receiver (SX-D7000) running my ARs and ADS for about two years now. I...

Just think - when you get done, you can have stereo! I'm planning to do this to my Mitsubishi power amp with really horrible screw down clamps.

Amen.

Precisely. :D

Sweet. I'll be installing that in five minutes.

I started to get irrationally angry just from reading this. I mean, malice aforethought and shit. Man, that sucks.

On topic: I think that review is demonstrably false. Seriously? One size fits all is only remarkable for Sofa No.2? Inca Roads, for god's sake. There are layers upon layers of inspiration and creativity. It wasn't until I listened to that song a couple months ago imagining each voice as a...

More of a German speaker, to my mind.

Baby or Baby II, I can't remember which had the cone tweeter. Likely the original Baby, since it says 1979. Legacy is a floorstander with 10" woofer, dome tweet, and a wood "kickpanel" at the bottom. Pecan top and bottom. Prodigy is floorstanding with 8" woofer and kickplate - a smaller...

For what it's worth, they're larger than they look (I think), both in actual size and sound. They don't sound like small speakers. Also, I just sold my bedroom Marantz 2238 and replaced it with my 2270 on L420s and they're, um, better.

Nice speakers! I've had two pair and use the pair I've kept (in beautiful shape) as my bedroom speakers. The sound nice on anything. The grills you can smooth out by applying even pressure between two padded surfaces: like a towel wrapped block from the top against a towel on the floor. It...
