Just got an e-mail from our youngest telling me that my birthday present (me: born April 1) will take a little longer to get here, but telling me what it is; check this out!

It finally arrived!
Here it is, in front of a Silvertone 1484 Twin Twelve for scale (one set of columns lists a tad - but who's to say their crew never set it up that way?).

Ron described having to set the scaffolding up "leaning" 15 degrees forward to avoid slapback off the rear wall at RFK Stadium. The delay towers were evidently angled upwards so that the sound would reflect off the same wall and exit the stadium through the open roof, so you're not far off.

Cool!   Have you plugged it in?

It's Bluetooth, Bill - what kind of phone do I carry?

Sorry for the double post.   Anyway, you can get a little bluetooth transmitter that plugs into an old fashioned mini phono headphone jack for $10-$15, or one that plugs into the USB slot on a computer, also cheap.

Hey, I responded again because neither of our posts was showing.  Eirdway.
I'll have to look into that transmitter.

Love the wall of sound (and the Twin Twelve - that was my first amp)!
