In Reply to: RE: Brothers Kids destroyed speakers, question posted by bullethead on August 06, 2017 at 11:29:50
This brought to mind an incident in my one-time career in audio.
A customer -- a psychology professor at the local college -- described a problem he was having with the sound of his Bozak speakers. I knew Bozaks well but could not explain it. We were a solidly supportive dealer, so I offered a free house call.
In the late afternoon, we enjoyed a decent Scotch (my fee) as he put on some music. I had never heard any speaker sound like his left channel speaker. I could best describe their sound as "soggy". The right channel was fine.
When the customer left the room, his three- or four year old son walked over to the left channel speaker and urinated on the woofer. Before the customer returned, a male golden retriever entered and lifted his leg in the same spot.
"I think I have a clue," I told him. "Have you smelled your left speaker?"
"No. Why? Did you?"
"I didn't have to. Go smell it."
Follow Ups:
After much much I think it was Absinthe I was drinking, I had a system with Polk floorstanders, I woke up and thought that I was in a club and that the speaker was a urinal. Wormwood drinks can do that to you.
Funny thing is after cleaning them up and after upgrading I gave those LSi-15 speakers to the same friend who had poked a whole in my Realistic speakers many years prior where I mentioned that story in this thread.
There was nothing wrong with the speakers, they cost me $3k, they sounded great and did not smell, aha!
