Sweet article, Jim.
Simple language that also goes as deeply into it as you might want. Based on that babe shot you posted in that other thread, I was thinking you had graduated beyond your "in training" grasshoppah, and were a full-blown thread killah. Now, however, you have shown your versatility, and also are a thread stahtah... -------------------- Can't you hear the thunder?

Dennis,
You forgot to mention Jim´s sense of humour.  This place just wouldn´t be the same without him. Jorge |

Yes. And I hear he's a snappy dresser.

The Jackass sez...
"Unbelievable". However, I am a true believer. And I'm a daydream believer. If I didn't already have a great girlfriend, I'd find me one dem homecoming queens. ON the series side, er, the SERIOUS side, I am now prepared to wire some speakers in series for the first time. I'm excited about this, but I'm obviously easily amused... -------------------- Can't you hear the thunder?

I have about 15 pair. I will try all but about 4 pair, perhaps 5.
Without boring with every detail, I have two pair of Polk that seem pretty even in terms of power consumption (Monitor 7s/RTA-8TLs). I'm interested in actually hearing the KEF C-55s do something impressive. I've played my Klipsch Forte IIs in parallel with other speakers, and am not sure what they would mate with that wouldn't detract from their sound. Need to find something that likes as much power as my AR-3As and I have been listening to my Sansui S-815s quite a bit. Unfortunately, I realized I had only one set of 4-ohm (KLH 20s); thought the Scott 17s were 4-ohm, but they are 6-8??? -------------------- Can't you hear the thunder?
