But make sure it's NOT the gallery image, but the real image (meaning...once you pick the picture you want in the gallery, right click and choose "view image"). It's only the url that ends in .jpg that will display between "img and img"

I had to go to Properties in the right click box to get the file ending in jpg. There was no 'view image' selection. The file ending in jpg is the key. Thanks Ted_b.

Nice looking for sure. Congrats. Get 'em broken in and let us know what you think.

What you displayed are the thumb pictures. That property came from the main gallery screen. You didn't go far enough.

OK, so you are in your gallery (the screen that has many pictures). Click on the picture required (a normal left click). Now you are STILL in your gallery, but have only one picture on the screen. At that point, right mouse click and choose "view image". Now you are out of your gallery and have a picture on a white background. Go up and copy the URL (which will end in .jpg). Go to your post, get in the edit mode, click on "insert image" link and paste in between img brackets.

They're partially broken in as Bob kept them almost an extra week so he could send them so that I'd recieve them on my days off. He used them during that time. Right out of the box they sound great. The first thing I do with a new set of speakers is play Abbey Road. Since I've listened to that album more than any other, I know what it should sound like. If they didn't sound good with Abbey Road, I'd have boxed them back up and sent them packing. I'm happy to report that Abbey Road sounded great, along with everything else I've thrown at them. They're not going anywhere.

Abbey Road as your benchmark.....NICE!! They'll Come Together even better after a few hundred hours. Then they'll be Something! In The End you'll be glad you chose SP Tech.

Teb_b, you're right. I was doing if from the gallery, not the individual pic. I think I'll leave it as is though so viewers can see whats taken place. From now on though, I've got NO EXCUSES!

Hey konut.....

Nice speakers !!!

I'll bet your the first Idaho SP Tech owner....but ....I could be wrong...

What's in your system ? Happy listening......

Chris

konut · « **Reply #39 on:** 23 Jul 2008, 11:51 am »

Thanks for all the good wishes guys! My system consists of:
Source Components: Custom Red Wine Modded SB3 (with LM6172 opamp)
Luxman T-02 Tuner
Toshiba SD6980 Universal Player
Vizio VX32L LCD TV
PreAmp: Creek OBH-12 Passive Attenuator
High Pass Filter: Marchand XM46 Passive Line Level 70hz, 24db per octave
Amps: Kenwood KM-X1000 Monoblocks (270 watts @ 8 ohms)
Sub: AV123 Rocket UFW-12 with RDES

Changes are afoot. I'm expecting the new AV123 X-Amp and upgrade of the UFW-12 to Hot Rod status. If you think that the wait for my Minis was long, you don't wanna know how long these 2 items have taken.

Not that I'm complaining. The UFW-12 has been somewhat of a problem child for AV123, but the companys' commitmant to "make it right" is unprecedented in the world of audio.
