    pulled schematics from the link that polk audio sent me from the forums on the crossovers and am letting my friend from work build them for me didn't buy completed crossovers and letting my friend build them for me, he has a lot more experience with electronics than i do.the company we work for Delta M is a R and D facility we make high precision measurement equipment for nuclear reactors around the world and make a few items for Nasa burn off sensors to measure the rocket temps as they take off my boss used to tell me we are the only company in the world that does what we do thought it was all BS but me and the newer employees are all learning from the old heads to take over there positions when they retire so it is constant on the job training.but the speakers are discontinued from the site i am going to order them from said they would be back in production this month for making the replica or equivalent speakers as far as the pioneers go there is a guy who has a thread for making them real 4 way speakers.

    As a native Tennessean who lives near Oak Ridge I want everyone to know it is embarrassing to see someone that lives and works in Oak Ridge, one of the most technologically advanced cities in the world, writing and sounding like a 5th grader in a chat room. He is NOT representative of the people who live in this area and he should be ashamed of making us look like fools with his BS.

    I will not read or respond to any more of these childish posts. I hope everyone here will do the same. Maybe that will convince him to start acting like the intelligent person he claims to be or he will go away.

    Good post. Redneck is a moron. End of discussion.

    Come on boys! Give our new friend @Redneck a break! He, after all, shares the same passion as well do!

    I believe we all have our little quirks and idiosyncrasies, some of which on full display here on CP! :)

    In my biz, I deal with partners all over the globe. And yes, the primary language used is English! The folks I deal with have varying levels of skills when it comes to articulating it. It amazes me that even today some of my colleagues get frustrated after all these years dealing with global partners!

    I've found the key to communication is listening. Deciphering through the grammar, syntax, slang, punctuation, and understanding the point of what the person is trying to say.

    Rock on! :smile:

    Damn, Tennman that was harsh this is the one reason I don't post on the net very often. I try to keep **** comments to myself I was taught if you have nothing nice to say keep it to yourself.

    After thinking about it I agree that it was harsh. Maybe too harsh and I apologize for that. You said you are here seeking speaker advice. Since the advice you're getting is free I don't think it's asking too much for you to add punctuation to your posts so we can read them. You just demonstrated in your last two posts that you are perfectly capable of doing it when you want to so why not do it?

    Hey @BlueFox, it’s Friday! Why are you even wasting time when you could be downing beers 🍻 in front of those beautiful Magico’s?

    I am in the hospital since last Wednesday a week ago. I hope to get out Monday, and when I do I am changing my life. Maybe 1-2 Friday’s of beer a month, if that. I might even sell the stereo, but I need to get better before making that decision.

    https://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/pioneer-cs-k735-transformation-to-hi-fi.423947/ here is the link may try this he seals up the woofers and makes them real 4 way speakers to me these pioneers sound great cant wait to hear what these polks sound like since guy said they will blow the pioneers away people in my apartment build may not like me after i get them working lol

    Don't get me wrong, a lot of folks over at AK are smart dudes/dudettes. HOWEVER there are some that do kooky things and swear it sounds better. I think most of that is they don't want to admit failure or it does sound better...but a polished **** is still a ****.

    WTF? That is deserving of it's own thread and you just casually drop that bomb in the middle of a random thread.

    Not trying to stir the pot. Just saying that when somebody asks for help, maybe you shouldn't kick them instead.
