Well, I think that I need new speakers for my desktop, but somehow I am also wondering if maybe it is my hearing. I certainly hope not!
I have had those small speakers for a long time, it was a gift from my oldest son. Up to now...

I'm still working on the very small speakers my friend sent me home with the other day.
They're Goodwins Maxims, and I think I will be able to make them look beautiful (see the speaker to the right). The wood is NOT walnut, but...

These are the Acoustic Research AR-4xs I've been working on over the past few weeks. Their owner will be here to pick them up later in the week. In this kind of condition, the could command $300 or so on eBay, but the owner is...

I'm almost done the with ADS 710 loudspeakers I'm restoring right now. I hooked one up the other night. It sounds fantastic--I may even look for a pair to add to my collection.
I was thinking of charging less than the $120 I...

Sometimes, not often, I mildly curse Tom Edison, Ben Franklin and others who made electricity so much a part of our lives and now with the tech age I am cursing more often.
Won't get into my modem not working so I don't have TV...

Well, my computer !
I had a little extra money, so I bought some speakers for my computer to replace the ones that had "died".
First I couldn't believe they were so tiny, and second, I couldn't figure out how to install them....

I was hoping to have the second JBL C-46 done by today, but I keep finding small areas that need work, so I have to keep on plugging.
The owner knows that I won't have this speaker done this weekend, and he's cool with that. His...

One of the guys that is renting one of the rooms where I am living, had the tools to fix my speaker wires, that the rat chewed up. Yay!

It happened again!!! What is going on here????
I bought a cheap set of speakers so I could have something to play my music. I have not had them for 24 hours, and the new speakers wires have been cut.
This time they looked...

Because of the limited space I am living in right now, I've decided to use my portable DVD player, for a duo purpose. I also use it as a CD player, to save space. All I did was add external speakers to it, and it turns it into a...

Here's a picture of that loudspeaker corner I've been working on for a couple of weeks. It looks square, but it remains to be seen how difficult color matching will be.
As for the sex survey from my class, 90% of men (including...

A voice which seems so far away but is the voice as distance as the voice seems? There's a possibility the "speaker" isn't so distance but appears to be quite distant. Illusion. Hiding but not really hidden. Sometimes the eyes can...

Heh. Those who know me know what this means. I sent another pair of vintage loudspeakers home with their happy owner yesterday.
This one was a pair of Wharfdales--heavy, sand filled big boys. My back is sore from carrying them...

Well, it's beautiful here anyway, though it's supposed to get up into the 90s later in the day. I'm going to grade more papers, do one progress note, and keep working on these 1960ish Acoustic Research AR-3s that were brought to...

Last week, I received my pair of external speakers from Target.com. This past weekend, I tried them out for a test run. First, I did it with Iheartradio.com to listen to my favorite radio stations while I work. Then I did it with...

Mylotter friends, my computer dilemma is almost resolved. My brother and I did go to Target today for miscellaneous items and forgot about it, when we left. He did give me a new office chair to use for free, since he gave me an...

Unfortunately hubby and I can't sing, but we try. We are members of a new group with our church, and we usually sing a few songs when we get together.
We thought it would sound better if we could sing along with the song playing...

I got my new computer tower all hooked up a few nights ago and it was actually a lot easier then I had anticipated. I also got my new monitor hooked up as well and everything is running wonderful.
The one thing I did not realize...

After installing Ubuntu on this PC, I found I had no sound. None at all. I quickly searched the internet and found that Ubuntu 14.04 was infamous for sound problems. I tried a lot of suggested solutions. I did a force reload...

After moving all the heavier and bulkier items back upstairs, I began reassembling the computer and the peripheral components. In principle this is quite straight forward, albeit rather laborious with a myriad of cables to...
