A few images off FB of ranch lands in the panhandle of western Nebraska. The Sandhills extend in this region also. Very scenic in many areas. Quite lonely also.

Re: Borrow Velodyne remote
Hit me up , I have 2 of them. I think I would have to ship one to you as I live in PA and I honestly don't know where DFW is, it would be better to just spell it out for us older folk LOL. This remote I would want back after you are all done but that kinda sucks as what if you need it again? I have 2 DD10 Plus subwoofers.
Hey just adding to my response. I'm a dealer for Universal Remote control. We can discuss a full Programmed Universal remote you can control your DD 12 and anything else in your system that you may not have the factory remote for.
Harmony would have been an option and possibly still is but they closed shop a while ago and the only remote that is DIY that is worth a damn which is a stretch IMO is the Sophia Baton. That is NOT a recommendation from me, it's just what is on the market, I'm not a fan at all.

Re: Monitor 10 tweeter replacement.
You have pinch the two tabs on the plastic standoffs together with needlenose pliers and carefully lift the board up slightly as you do each standoff.
No F1nut there was just the 2 screws to release the board in my case (see original photo), anyway new caps + resistors in one speaker now, just did an AB listening test and while not an astronomical difference the shimmering highs on vocals + cymbals and the fully opened sizzle of snare drum + grandpiano high notes were obviously a bit clearer than in the untreated speaker, very nice indeed!
Bought caps (monacor + audaphon) + mox resistors from lautsprechershop.de as I live in Europe it was a better and cheaper alternative total 38 €.

Re: Picked up a set of 3.1tl's, Here I go again
I am totally in love with these 3.1tl's! Absolutely the best pair of speakers I have ever owned. I don't actually understand why they sound so much better than my 1C's and 2Btl's. The only real difference is that I used Clairity CSA's in both the high and low pass in the 3.1's instead of Sonicap for the highs for the other pairs with Clairty PX for lows on the 2B's and Dayton in the 1C's. The imaging is precise and the soundstage is huge. The SDA effect is there, but not as pronounced. It is more seamless, natural, and blended. I can't hear the separation between stereo and SDA, which was more obvious on the others, especially the 1C's. They just create a wall of believable and engaging sound. The detail is fantastic without being bright, forward or harsh. I could not be happier with the result, can't seem to find any faults, which for me is a miracle.
Just before I finished the build my Hafler DH500 let out the magic smoke and one of the MW''s in my 1C's actually caught on fire. My first listen to the 3.1's was on an Onkyo A9555 integrated amp. I could hear the limitations of the Onkyo which forced me into some obsessive searching for a different rig. I found a Classe Model 30 preamp and CA150 power amp about an hour away, so I picked them up Saturday. They are both in mint condition. I was concerned about going from the Haffler's 225 WPC down to the Classe's 150 WPC, but the Classe has proved to be equally as capable as the Haffler. This current set up has brought me the sound experience that has eluded me since I dove back into this crazy hobby more than a decade ago. I am finally content! We will see if that lasts.
