    Great painting.
    I think that house design was in a major movie or two.

    Wait, what? I’m really confused now.

    Yep, I thought it was a Hitchcock movie;

    I think James Bond pulled one down... or was it this movie above?

    I believe you that it was in a movie, what I don’t believe is that that is a painting?

    Check the shadowing... Reality won't print like that and at such odd angles for potential light sources.

    I use to take lessons on mechanical drawing. Mostly only home drawings. I know a sketch, mock up when I see one. But being a Hitchcock production in that period of his career, ONLY THE BEST mock-ups were painted and models of great construction were presented in the pre-production phase..I'm SURE.

    My weeding rig....

    I'll bet my erstwhile Klipsch Cornwalls woulda killed weeds.
    I know they could make paint peel.

    Does bad/BAD mean good in this case?

    Not in this case, no. ;)

    The Cornwalls and their ilk are fun, but fatally flawed (IMO, of course).
    I lived with a pair for a decade.

    If you peruse Klipsch forums, you'll notice that there are myriad folks who love their heritage Klipsches, after replacing drivers, horns, wiring and crossovers.

    Sometimes they modify the enclosures, too.

    Draw your own conclusions ;)

    I will say that the big boys, the Klipschorns, are pretty good -- although (again, perhaps not surprisingly) the best sounding pair I ever heard had been extensively modified. Still, Col. Klipsch's folded bass horn design works pretty well.

    I believe It was built at a university in an auditorium and finished. There's a ton of info on it. Pictures documenting every step. I just picked one to show the Bass head.

    It was designed on the wavelength of a 20Hz wavelength I believe.
