Dad’s Speakers…
by RadMan on Aug.29, 2010, under General
I’ve been searching high and low for the best deal I could find… best performance to buck ratio… and I think I’ve found it! I found (and acquired) a pair of Energy Connoisseur C-2s for $60!
I’ve removed the sticky tape residue and given the cabinets a polish to look a little better. Once I get the grill cloth replaced I’ll be able to send these to Dad.
All I need now is a receiver to go along with…

Ya so, a little while ago we decided it was high time (like 3 years now) that we finally paint the master bedroom. There were 4 different wall colours from the previous owners, and frankly not only did it look ridiculous, but one of the colours just about made my eyes bleed. What the hell were they thinking. I’ll tell ‘ya, THEY WEREN’T!
Anyhoo, here are a series of shots that show the stages we went through:
A. Room is prepped but no paint has hit the walls yet, notice the different colour walls (Pink, Green, Beige and Pink-tinted White)
B. Primer coat/coats have been put on the walls. The pink walls required 2 coats of primer… ugh!
C. Now you’re seeing the final colour before we setup the room. MUCH BETTER!
D. Final Bedroom shot
Some walls ended up with a total of 3 coats of paint, and the pink ones got 5 coats! But it looks good. We went with “Mochachino” and are happy with the results. As well, for the first while we’ll have the crib next to our bed and have baby with us.
Thanks for looking!
