"Today was the very last time "I'll lift anything heavy, Doc, I swear!"
Having them on wheels makes it easier to finagle wiring, clean, etc in that busy part of the room.
The lifting was to replace metal studs with casters (the grills are getting Neodymiumed, also) as I my back really is shot. Legs have a bad case of the 'slows', too.
Golden Years, my ass!
Oh, you noticed the 4Pis are still on bricks? Those aren't bricks, they're the keystones for my Mausoleum. Thay stay.
While I was at it, I swapped the .625 light gauge coil for a 15 gauge Jantzen, 0.55mH. Steel core for air core. Most of the boominess I had is gone. The remainder is room-related.
For a treat, I'm playing the 2Pi Towers as mains. So far, they've done Tchaikowsky, Bonnie Raitt and Count Basie. It's a Buffet!
You know, it's not just about Eminence not being in the same conference as JBL; as good as the SB-29 Tweeter is, it can't keep up with the 4Pis horn. Before the H290C, I will now reveal, that wasn't true. The SB-29 is still very good, but it's not a horn.
Wayne, you really should buy a room at RMAF just to piss in the industries cornflakes. Maybe a Kickstarter?
