    Look, just because he humped your dogs doesn't mean you have to have a love affair with him. Russ will do that any day of the week, so tell us..........what's the deal?

    Did he belly buck you or something? Please do not tell.

    He picked up the monitors... :)

    And on topic of the monitors... I threw in no-rez and some dynamat on the woofer baskets and hot damn do they image like a mother. Clarity for days. Not bad for an inexpensive monitor.

    Thanks, man! It was good to meet you.

    ATM the monitors are sitting on two chairs... I still haven't figured out the cat issue. He's deffo gonna knock them off the stands.

    I'm gonna have to tie them down with rope or something lol.... that would be ghetto.

    I'll let you know how they are sounding in a few days when I can work out placement.

    Put pepper around the stands - 1 ft on all sides... He will never go near them again in a matter of a week... lol

    He gets the pepper on his feet - it burns, he licks his paws - it burns his tounge... lol

    You could try some Blue Tack between the speakers and stands too.

    Then do Cayenne pepper [lots], garlic salt and curry. Don't overdo it or you will be forced out of the house and not him.

    Little ****. He's like a troll on this forum. Increase the curry and garlic, tenfold! :biggrin:










    No, I'm not serious. I wouldn't want to hurt the poor fella......

    Cats are persistent... and they don't like being told no. They have no concept of cost, and will do anything to get their way. He was eating my raw chicken off the cutting board, his tail on the stove... the stove was on high. His tail started burning... he freaked out and ran away. It only burned the fur off... but it still hasn't grown back completely and he was just eating my chicken while I was typing the last message. Chicken is obviously more important than his fur

    His brother stayed here for the week, and I locked him out of my room, so he ate the carpet around the door.

    Cats sucks.

    Dogs rule!

    Your crossovers are almost done - waiting on them blasted resistors!

    And I am going to light that "tweeter" on fire.

    Dogs smell :eek:

    Currently, I have the monitors on the floor, .5 inch from the wall, facing the wall... the cat is going from one to the other, standing on top of them trying to see if there is any way for him to find out what the drivers taste like.

    You let me have the tweeter, remember? I was gonna put it in the thing for the look of it... I suppose I could shoot it if it would make you feel better :biggrin:

    I think we should refer to that "tweeter" as a "twee" - they forgot the TER
