Walterjn I was going “throwback speakers” from the late 1970’s. If you had Triaxails over coaxial… you were livin large.

sdandrea1 Paid in 4 installments, almost Geezer price since we have short memories

FauxAmish

A pair of Red Rooster golf rain gloves. Will probably use them frequently in Arizona in a few weeks. Hands sweat a bit out there.

Walterjn good shit??? My beastie is needing new door speakers. Stock was infinitys.

Whatcha looking for Walter? I just spent a month looking at car speakers, would be glad to make some recommendations. I just bought Infinity for my car.

Sparky I've been kicking around the idea of new speakers for the doors. Unfortunately infinity seems to be out of the Kappa 2 way 5.25" speakers. I'm not sure I want to deal with crossovers, otherwise I'd go with the infinity kappa that Crutchfield has

Walterjn Yeah I hear you. This will be my first attempt with separates. My new Kia has a tweeter in the pillar, so I thought about just replacing the tweeter & woofer without crossover. But based on other new Kia installs I have read about, the tweeter has a 8k high pass capacitor attached. Not sure that it would be wise to attach a new tweeter to a full range signal, so I am going to try the crossover.

Not sure why the HK/Infinity site has such low stock. Crutchfield has some

Walterjn I love the Crutchfield Catalog

Walterjn

Sparky I think I might have to just call Crutchfield and ask them some stupid questions. I was looking under what fits my beastie, and those don't show up. It actually says they don't fit. The ONLY difference is mounting height. Everything else matches,

I'm also going to have to open the door up and take some measurements. Before I go much further...

I got some Skecher Slip-In shoes. I really like these. Super cumfy with great support and not having to tie them or bend over to pull them on is a plus for an old geezer. Just put them on the floor, stick you toes in and push and they pop on. They feel more secure than most of my laced shoes.

Subsonic

Rickochet Skechers are the official shoe of the Last Tee.

Walterjn

Typhoon honestly, who doesn't???
I miss the paper catalogs!!!

Bravopilot

Walterjn Agreed. The last two purchases for two different cars from them were off. Didn't fit, not close. For the second buy, I called to remind them and ordered from their expert. Plus, they were out of the "free" adapter/wiring thing and had to buy from another source as it showed up 3 weeks post installation.

CallMeAl
I think you'll like it. It's an upgrade from a 27 yr. old Charbroil. I bought a similar one last year. I like it but I think my
old Weber Genesis was maybe easier to cook on. I believe that I liked cooking on burners that are parallel to the front
of the grill better than the ones on my new grill that go front to back. Even after using this grill with the front to back burners for over a year now, I'm still learning how to use it. The temp gauge and place that you plug the probes into is
less than fantastic. I can't have the grill farther than my deck away from the house or it won't work. It can't find the
Wi-Fi. it's a pretty weak system. I often use probes and a unit I bought for the old grill. It's maybe 5 years old but it still
works fine. I can have the grill out behind the house next to my unattached garage and that unit work very well. Another better feature on that unit is that it can use 6 probes at the same time and the Weber unit has only two.
