Hey Waz,
I think you are right and the bigger mags have even more wire and the latest mmgs have 2 more tweeter traces, so yes, HUNDREDS of feet.
Thanks for the music tips. If I had to pick, I think I like him better in Amarok, but what do I know. I envy you and your $5k music spree, but for the life of me I cant think of how I would ever find 5k worth of titles I even wanted. Sad I know, but we all have to play the cards we are dealt...
What is that line, "its all been said before". Well for me after the 80s it really is true YMMV. Even if it isnt, I cant find my way past all that compression in todays new music.

I lob one up to the net and you didn't smash it back in my face. I only gave the length of wire on the panels, which is what applies to you and the active crowd. Those of us still living in the dark ages have inductors in the path - that mid/woofer wire length is in the hundreds of feet for us!
Amarok - gee, and I thought that was just the name of a Mike Oldfield album. I kept thinking, "What singing?"

Hey Waz,
I am trying to be nicer this year :) But yeah most people have hundreds and hundreds of feet.
And fwiw the active crowd wont have me. Sadly I am still stuck in the dark ages with you. It is a cabling thing at this point and a lazy thing and a wife missing me and getting the same day off as I have.
Who the hell is Mike Oldfield??

sry, couldn't help it.
Who the hell is General Failure? and why is he reading my disk???
Are you going to tell me that you never saw The Exorcist? Mike Oldfield is the guy who has recorded Tubular Bells about a dozen times - his last being orchestral, and I think the best. Anyway, he also did this album:

When I looked up Amarok in the context of Mariusz Duda, I discovered the album about which you were speaking. Mariusz did the vocals on six tracks. I guess I need to get my hands on Metonia. According to what I read, they took their name from the Oldfield album (out of reverence for it). There aren't many singers with voices that I really like - his is one of them.
So, you invested in those two nice Parasound amps and you're only using one of them? I thought you were doing active with your Lynx card. Come to think of it, I don't remember seeing any posts about your completed framing project. It sounds like you're getting as slow and lazy as I am. Since going into semi-retirement, I'm really getting bad.

Hey Waz,
Nothing wrong with living under a rock...
I THINK I saw the exorcist but man I was a kid or teenager. I get it confused with the Omen I think. The exorcist had that girl who did the neck gymnastics right. And the Omen had the dobermans??
I should quit while I am ahead...tubular bells?? man I am so lost.
There is a sample between songs on an album I love and I think it is from the exorcist. it is some old guy saying "where we'll share our dissensions" or something like that. There that is the extent of my exorcist knowledge.
And I was really posing about Amarok. I checked out riverside on you tube and well it lead me to Amarok. I swear I had heard of them somehow. Years ago I got some mp3 samples and I think that was one of them.
I was passive bi-amping and decided to go active and make some hybrid stands. In the interim I decided to redo my music computer and have to make cabling for the active route. I also am thinking about some other mods including transformers for the lynx output. and then there is some delam that needs to be treated like 10 other things I can come up with.
Sadly my days off like today, are the same. I find myself just on the asylum and not doing anything useful... Have to get going.

Hey Look what I found from a review of my favorite bands latest album:
“Mourning Sun” brings the album to a close. There’s a slight feeling that this is what “Into The Fire” (from the Fallen album) should have sounded like. There are the same surging guitars, but this time they are mixed with more movie samples. There’s a slight Mike Oldfield/Exorcist theme through the early stages of the song.
Sadly that album is really compressed (thanks studio a holes) and I dont listen to it much.
