A strange orange glow outside a few min ago. Taken with my Galaxy S9 phone. The first few shots did not she the blue very well. I switched to pro mode and it did pretty well. The orange glow made it look like the neighborhood was on fire from inside the house. Merritt Island FL

Was out for a drive yesterday and noticed some interesting graffiti on a building near here. Went back early this morning before sunrise, stuck a car in front of it, and took a photo. I think the graffiti makes an interesting backdrop.

Dave and Mark. Here is a shot I took a couple months back with the 12” SCT and Nikon D5500 (click on it and zoom in. Very detailed)

A great photo. Let's see it again.

How can you be sure that " "is or isn't.
Moderator just post up a week ago not to talk about nothing other than speakers or audio gear anything else will be deleted or the person posting spam or anything other than discussing audio speakers or gear may get banned. But I see Nothing has Change over the last 10 or so year on this forum. Moderator went on to say that she didn't have the time or the bandwidth to babysit adults. So play nice fellow members of Polk Audio forum. I just got a email from Sound unlimited who owns Polk Audio from overseas last week Inquiring about info and information. So Big Brother is Monitoring this Forum other than the moderators.
To be fair I did say to keep the main discussions about audio. This is just an on-going thread where folks stop by and post random pictures. I wouldn't really consider this as a serious "discussion" thread.
Ultimately my goal was to stop threads like COVID, Riots, world events in general from being posted about on here since they tend to always lead to political discussions and disagreements between folks. Which has stopped since.
Our headquarters are in Vista, California. Though we do have offices in Europe and Asia, Polk is a predominantly US company and the US team has ultimate jurisdiction over this forum. If "big brother" wants to look around by all means I encourage it, hopefully they see the potential this forum has like I do and we can work on getting improvements made to the site. There's a reason why the only two moderators here are Ken and myself. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Here's an audio picture

That EQ has a certain Egyptian flair to it.

I would venture to say that the above photo represents a horrid sounding system. I cringe just looking at it.

Is that EQ how Bose tunes thier speakers? No highs, no lows, must be Bose???
Looks like a panel from the cockpit of the Millennium Falcon! -
Novel idea, if I do say so myself...

Haha, I never noticed the Carver M500 in that movie! -
I wanted to check the size of the woofer inside my JBL "professional" Subwoofers and also to get a look at the BIG upper top cabinets I call them.
Yup, the BIG upper cabinet has 15" woofers and the subs have 18" woofers.
Dang these things are huge!
I'll get a picture of the smaller upper cabinets later when I can get access to them. I'm overhauling that back room.
Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

Tony those subs are massive! Holy cow. Man I would love to test those out with some of my favorite bass heavy tracks like "Beatroots - Navigation". -
I think they would do those kinds of tracks justice.
They're so easy to drive too!
Just tapping those cones makes bass sounds that brings a big smile to my face! That 15" cone in the big-upper is built like the subs cone. It too, makes a nice bass sound just from tapping it.
Today while organizing some more, I REALLY wanted to hook them up again but didn't. Time for that later on this week or weekend. Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

What type of amplifier will you hook up to the subs/mains? Do the JBLs require speakon connectors or do they accept bare wire?
This would be a great setup to point into the backyard for a bbq. A loud bbq. -
The subs have a bar with about 5 or 6 screw terminals I think.
The others have both screw terminals and speakon also. I know a couple have wires just coming out from the connection plate.
But I haven't looked at them for a long time.
I did look directly at the woofers connections kind-of yesterday while looking to get a better grip to move them around. I wrestled them around the room yesterday, today AND tonight and didn't pay any attention to their rear hook-ups much. I will be looking at them later on in a month or so when I get things more organized. Some speakers need re-wiring but all the speakers play fine.
I used a cheap Pyle Hybrid receiver when I tested them years ago, Yea, I know...Pyle? I didn't want to short a nice receiver out on the first testing. I haven't listened to them since. But when I had the subs on sp. A and I believe the 12" smaller tops on sp. B, it sounded like a live band, full range kick a** full range sound. I was like this...
. Really.
I can't believe I have them all up against the wall and organized now. Man they've been in the way!
Here they all are. I counted these 7 huge speakers for a couple of weeks lately and I thought I bought 8. I thought I was going crazy! I couldn't see the 8th speaker anywhere. Today I found it.
So I'm not THAT crazy yet.
Little by little...
