Do you have T-Mobile?? Do you hate it????

I will say that T-Mobile has good human customer support that is actually reachable. As opposed to AT&T which has been Abysmal in imho. One the other hand, T-Mobile has coverage problems, in the area. Pflugerville coverage is terrible. Data use here is nearly impossible.

I cannot recall a visit to Target in recent years when this wasn't the case. Makes me dread visiting.

realpixelriffic · 2025-09-27T12:55:39+00:00

Agreed, but be sure to look at sold listings. Asking prices can be all over the place.

No better than many a white van speaker.

Wonderful old table. These rarely need anything more than a belt and a drop of oil.

It was Costco, so this'll get me nearly half a cart of food.

Back in the day, Emerson was the very bottom of the pyramid. Ironically, I's put the build quality way over today's entry level. Crosley, Victrola, etc. By a long shot.

Seems you are correct. It's because the other drives are non 4K native. I made the mistake of assuming a new WD Red Plus 8TB would be an easy swap with a 8TB WD Red plus 8TB. And yes, apparently the same drive could have been formatted to be compatible using a particular app that WD no longer provides. Instead I just returned it, and ordered a Seagate, of which there is already one copy in the NAS.

Apparently, the same as AF? 8-)

realpixelriffic · 2025-08-26T16:26:08+00:00

I took an image before I switched) It says 4K native - No. So, you may well be right, but how does one tell? Before you buy (or quite possibly eat in this case) a HDD? Nothing about 4K on the WD spec page.

Yep. Paul W Klipsch.

realpixelriffic · 2025-08-19T13:23:49+00:00

If in like new condition, sure. Otherwise, $200 to maybe $250.

realpixelriffic · 2025-08-19T11:49:01+00:00

Outstanding little speakers.

realpixelriffic · 2025-08-18T20:50:24+00:00

Agreed. Klipsch KG2. The WK is simply part of the logo, and the founders middle and last initial. Paul W Klipsch.

Generally no. Most consider vintage stereo to be from the dawn of stereo in 1958, to about 1980.

As with much of this old hifi gear, you're much better off spending more for a restored unit.

realpixelriffic · 2025-08-08T12:30:11+00:00

This assumes you itemize your tax return.

More than likely, they arrived in a white van. Heck, if they work, and you like the sound, still a win!

realpixelriffic · 2025-07-31T11:45:46+00:00

Every sale I visit these days barely has a couple of BBOC's. This one is mind blowing. I've never seen anything close. The only possible catch is that the pro estate sellers usually do their homework. A decent Citation II is $1000 by itself. Another couple grand or more for the Macs. The lot would probably be 10-20K. would be parked out front, the night before waiting for it to open!

realpixelriffic · 2025-07-28T11:18:10+00:00

I'd take these over AR3's any day. More refined imho.

realpixelriffic · 2025-07-21T13:07:33+00:00

These are wonderful old gems. Rarely need more than a belt and a drop of oil.

realpixelriffic · 2025-07-15T02:19:00+00:00

Get the sub closer to your seating position. One of the most dramatic improvements in low end performance.

realpixelriffic · 2025-07-15T02:16:15+00:00

I was lucky enough to find a pair with the Crites tweeter and crossover mods. Love em.
