:frown: Bummer, 10/1 is the Woodstock tribute show in Ft Worth. Sunday would be better, but I am obviously too late to this party.
So what did you find to replace this beast? Are you happy with the replacement? Or do just rotate all your gear every year or so?
Russ,
I should be back in town Monday night. Too busy this weekend to help or show up unfortunately. Pick up daughter at UT Austin on Saturday. Pick up son up at Austin college on Sunday. Isn't it...
No- my 10's are virgins. I don't have the skills to do the upgrade, though Tracy & Jim have offered their assistance. Just afraid to cut into a perfectly good speaker:cool: Kinda like jumping out of...
I think it was media monkey
I currently own the classic Monitor 10's with the Peerless tweeter. All original. Locally, someone is selling SDA-1B's with interconnect cable. SL2000 Silver coil tweeters. Looks like in good shape....
Very funny:biggrin: Not humped, just used as an end table & it got spilled on by someone's drink... good catch though.
Jim- Great time had by all! excellent job hosting. Plenty of room to hook up lots of gear and do swapping. Great job on the burgers & dogs. Great bunch of guys that showed up, great new music...
U missed it, but I already said I will Bring a pasta salad. BTW... I'm bringing speakers & a sub. Should I bring connecting wires? Or U set up for Plug & play? Same for the WD TV, U have an open...
Jim- is there a list of products people are bringing? As I have said, I have original Monitor 10's w/Peerless tweeter & Mon 5Jr+, but don't want to bring them if others are already planning to bring...
I'm in. Though I may already be counted as one of THSMITH's (+2). I can bring a pasta salad if U want. Or cash for a donation, or beer....
Also have available to bring: Polk Monitor 10's(BIG), Mon...
THe LS90's are rated at 90db from 1 watt... shouldn't be too tough to drive them.
I'm in! That weekend is good for me too. Let me know what to bring. Usher tour sounds like it could be interesting. I thought they were made in Taiwan though?
Sorry I haven't been back here in a while. Choosing between aiff & flac is just a matter of what you are able to store & decode. Flac is a lossless format that sounds WAAAAAAY better than standard...
U looking for movies with BASS, since that is something Bose systems lack? How about these for starters:
5 Star
Cloverfield
The Haunting
Flight of the Phoenix
Hot Fuzz
The Incredible Hulk...
Can't think of all the ones I've been to, but going to see Robert Cray & Jonny Lang on 4/29/11 at Winstar Casino in Oklahoma... can't wait! Really mad I couldn't get off work to see the...
I'm interested. I can bring Original monitor 10s, or 5jr+, maybe HSU 2.3 Subwoofer. Can certainly bring music & the most important item to have at a GTG- BEER! Can we get a final date & location?
how about a media server for $100 or less? Try the WD TV at your local Best but, or try: http://www.wdc.com/en/products/homeentertainment/mediaplayers/
try hdtracks.com for quality legal downloads. go to the HD section, or you are getting the standard CD quality tunes. plenty of 96/24 to choose from.
If U don't mind a factory refurb with full warranty, try:

Mainly Marantz & Onkyo. I bought Onkyo 606 w/90wpc for...
Check out WDTV. It's cheap. It does lossless. It's easy. 2 ways to go:
1) original $99 + $99 for external hard dive
2) New networked $150 + $99 for external hard dive
If you choose 1- you have to...
I have a pair of the original Polk 10's, purchased in 1981. Why not get the best of both worlds. Keep your 7's, & supplement with a good subwoofer. I have a 12" HSU filling the bottom end, and it...
I thought it would be useful to have a new sticky thread here that lists the upgrade path for all models. Could be in spreadsheet format. It would list the Model. Under the model, All the drivers, &...
Found an SDA-2B local to me for under $300. I currently have Polk Monitor 10s... the originals, not a or b's. Driving with an Onkyo 606 with 90w/c. 80/20 split mostly movies. Room is 12x20x9 open...
