Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Stereo Bookshelf speakers height

That would make a good picture.

Anyone not knowing the size of the speakers would think the skull came off an animal the size of a Triceratops.

Here it is


Thanks everyone for your suggestions!

I see the problem now... the horn section is too big.

But seriously, lower the speakers to ear level.

Good one, Scott!

Welcome AG! I'm glad you rearranged only the speaker placement. The beer bottles are simply adorable right where they are!

You've inspired me to also try using (or just storing) recyclables next to my speakers. You should try substituting cans and see if the speakers sound any different. I'm going to start saving those big Tide jugs to try out.

Lol.

First of all, no need for such sarcasm. The bottles are nowhere near the speakers, even if it looks like on that photo (perspective). I came here for a suggestion about the speakers, not to read your rambling about the "interior design" If you got nothing smart to say, please uphold from messages like this one, and cure your frustration elsewhere - not on the internet

Whoa there AG, you are new here and need to understand that people have different personalities. As one of the longest posting residents of this board, I can tell you with great honesty that most people here are honest, open and ready to help. Some do this with a flair for humor, but nobody - well very few but they are easy to spot - mean any harm

Bob is a unique individual, whom I had the pleasure of meeting at the Axiom 30th anniversary. He does tend to spin advice into humor, but he is a well respected veteran of this board.

If everyone simply filled a form or ticked boxes for posts and followed the masses, this board would be as frustrating as others.....but the refreshing tangents here make this a family.

You need to realize that every forum out there has those people that have a hidden agenda and will use every opportunity to further their cause. Here we have Bob. His agenda is to add some humor in the form of sarcasm and it is not all that well hidden when he posts and it has that effect on many first time posters. I know when I first posted, I was taken aback by his comments and took everything he said in the totally wrong tone. Now a year and a bit later, I actually look forward to what he writes as it's a great smile for the day. If you can't laugh at yourself, then how can you laugh at others?

BTW: I see a Wychwood Brewery Hobgoblin in the stack. Great beer from my old home. I am just sad that they pulled the November beer from being bottled any more and only now comes in casks that you simply can't get over here.

AG, I really do owe you an apology. As a newbie, you couldn't know that I am a smarmy jokester who will sacrifice most anything or anyone for a laugh.

It was also very unfair of me, because I do not know if you are old enough to buy alcohol for yourself or if your community even offers a recycling program.

Yup, still doin' it. I'm sure, like everyone else here, you will appreciate it far more when I do it with someone else.

You are young. You have oodles of time and cash yet to commit to audio/video equipment in the upcoming years. This is a very good place to start and even grow, for years.

Besides, AG, really! If you related this story to one of your friends, and they asked you the screen name of the jerk in question, how do you think they'd respond when you told them his name is SquareBobGodPants? If I could "arrive" here each time in a clown car, I would, but in an expensive suit.

P.S. Thanks, Matt! There's enough irony here for both of us!
