The vote was 5-to-1 in favor of approval, with Louis Tonsmeire Sr. casting the lone dissenting vote.
Acuff submitted the special use application in order to legalize an apartment built underneath his office building, which is zoned professional services. He had previously rented the apartment without the special use permission, which violated city zoning laws.
That violation formed much of the debate during the work session, with council members asking what the timeline was for the apartment's occupation and how the occupancy was discovered.
City Manager Sam Grove urged the council to remove personalities and previous actions from their decision.
"I think the question is: is it appropriate for residential at that location? Do you want to mix residential and commercial? That's the issue," he said.
The council's approval came with a requirement from the Cartersville Fire Department that Acuff replace the apartment's existing storefront windows with windows that can open. The replacement would bring the apartment into compliance with fire codes, as an occupant would have more than one way to exit the building.
A second 5-to-1 vote occurred later in the meeting with the awarding of a water department grit collector rehabilitation bid to A&D Contracting & Welding. Lori Pruitt cast the single nay vote.
The bid was a second source of debate during the work session and meeting, as the Cartersville Water Department did not recommend awarding A&D the project even though the company was the lowest bidder. Assistant Director Ed Mullinax said his staff was concerned about A&D's capacity to finish the project in a reasonable time. Instead, the water department recommended the bid be awarded to Southern Machine Company — whose bid came in at $78,500 — even though it was $184 higher than A&D.
Council member Jayce Stepp said during the work session A&D had called him, saying they were not going to be awarded the contract.
"The phone call I got was 'Look, we're ready to do the job and we low bid it, and we're not getting the job' Well, they're saying you're not large enough to do the job," Stepp said as he explained the conversation.
Mullinax said the water department was concerned A&D was not large enough to handle the city's project and any other projects they may encounter from other clients.
"They've never completed not completed a job, but they are a smaller company. They do have clients or customers that are much larger than us, that are much more important. So if one of their other customers has a job requirement, they would more than likely stop working on our job," he said.
Mullinax also said the department was satisfied with A&D's work on previous projects, including work on the department's other grit collector. However, Southern Machine was recommended for the job because the department felt the extra $184 would ensure the project was finished in a timely manner and save money in the long run, as city employees would spend less time working with the company on the project.
City council members, though, did not believe any cost savings outweighed what they believed was an unfair recommendation. Nowhere, Stepp said, did the bid give a time limit or timeline for when repairs must be completed.
Council member Lindsey McDaniel Jr. said the lack of any real difference between the three companies competing for the project made it apparent A&D should get the bid.
"The way I look at it you've got three sources here and we don't have any kind of criteria that states one is better than the other, in writing. I hear what you're saying about low cost overall versus the $184, but I believe that, well, like I said I've got a lot of buying experience...but, anyway, A&D would get that bid," McDaniel said.
Other city council business included:
• Approving a text amendment by Cliff Acuff to add automotive and light truck rental facility as permitted use in the multiple use zoning district.
• Approving the city's application to the Community Home Investment Program as a step to help first-time homebuyers.

AudioQuest carefully engineered their cables based on years of their own in-house research to transfer signals as cleanly and faithfully as possible. Solid conductors improve accuracy and clarity Type 4 cables feature four solid, long-grain copper conductors to ensure highly efficient signal transfer with minimal loss. Solid conductors eliminate electrical and magnetic interference that can add brittleness to the sound with multi-strand conductor cables. Precise cable geometry These AudioQuest cables use two 17-gauge and two 20-gauge conductors. This difference in diameter reduces the possibility of distortion caused by any particular conductor's sonic "signature." A specialized spiral arrangement of the four conductors minimizes potential signal interaction, resulting in sound that's clearer and more dynamic.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Solid Conductors: All of the AudioQuest, CinemaQuest Type 4 speaker cable conductors are solid. Electrical and magnetic interaction between strands in a conventional cable is the single greatest source of distortion, often causing a somewhat harsh and distorted sound. Solid conductors enable the Type 4 cables to produce very clear sound. Long-Grain Copper: The Type 4 cable's LGC (Long-Grain Copper) allows a smoother and clearer sound than cables using regular OFHC (Oxygen-Free High-Conductivity) copper. LGC has fewer oxides within the conducting material, less impurities, less grain boundaries, and provides overall better performance. 4-Cross Geometry: The relationship between conductors defines a cable's most basic electrical values (capacitance and inductance). However, even when those variables are kept in a reasonable balance, the relationship between conductors can be varied in ways that greatly effect the sound. The spiral construction of Type 4 cable allows for significantly better dynamic contrast and information intelligibility than if the same conductors were run in parallel. The specific 4-cross geometry used in Type 4 cables maximizes this advantage. Insulation: Since the Type 4 cables use solid conductors it doesn't require hard insulation and can take advantage of the vibration damping advantage of a softer insulation. SST (Spread Spectrum Technology: SST (Spread Spectrum Technology) is a method for significantly reducing distortion flaws by using a precise combination of different size conductors. Terminations: The Type 4 cable utilizes high quality BFA/Banana connectors that allow the Type 4 cables to be securely attached to your speakers and amplifier. The BFA/Banana connectors are a dull looking silver because its metal is plated directly over the connector itself. There is no shiny and harsh sounding nickel layer underneath to distort your audio signal. Product reviews from the Crutchfield Labs (what are the Labs?)

In 1988 I bought a pair of JBL L100t speakers and used good quality Monster Cable speaker wire to connect them to my Harman Kardon receiver. They sounded great, but eventually the speaker cable needed to be replaced along with the original receiver. Earlier, I bought a Yamaha, Model RX-797 receiver to replace the HK and last year I broke down to buy a pair of AudioQuest, Type 4 speaker cables. No, I'm not an audiophile, but I do appreciate good sound and the difference in sound quality with Type 4 was noticeable--not night and day, but high frequency sounds were cleaner, the midrange was clear and strong, and the base was somewhat tighter. Was it worth the price? It was for me: I recently bought another pair of AQ Type-4 speaker cable to upgrade my new home theater system that includes a Samsung UN65F9000 4K-UHD TV. I'm so impressed with AudioQuest that I also ordered AQ Golden Gate stereo interconnect cable with RCA plugs to upgrade connections to a HK 3470 receiver and a pair of JBL L100t3 speakers used as part of my home theater. Yes, I'm sticking with stereo instead of going to surround sound--don't want all those speakers. FYI: A few years ago I did an extensive comparison of my old JBLs to the latest in home speakers; better sound would have cost about $5000. I also purchased AudioQuest Cinnamon HDMI cable to connect a new Yamaha, BD-S677 Blue-ray player to the TV. I'm convinced that quality cable is worth the price when connecting quality components. Pros: Quality construction is obvious when you see and touch AudioQuest Type 4 cables. Their performance in transferring undistorted sound makes AudioQuest Type 4 speaker cable the perfect choice for those who appreciate listening to breathtaking stereo sound. Cons: Somewhat pricey, but in my opinion, worth it. 1 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

I wish I'd got this earlier when I assembled my system. Noticable improvements in highs and bass is more tight. I had type 2 16guage cable earlier with banana connectors.

A more of a clean and tight sound from my 20 year old klipsch quartet front and my klipsch KV-2 FB center channel speaker. If you want good sound and not to expensive these are it!!!

Yes | No 5 out of 5 Great sound, great build quality, and great aesthetics Written By Dave Z, Rockland County, NY on Wednesday, September 11, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Purchased these cables along with a pair of MartinLogan ElectroMotion ESLs because I preferred not to use my existing AudioQuest Midnight 3 bi-wire cables with the second set of connectors dangling (the ElectroMotions do not support bi-wiring). I found no difference between these and the Midnights, despite the Midnight being a much beefier and more expensive cable. Very happy with my purchase. Pros: Sounds as good as more expensive cables that I've tried, build quality is solid, nice aesthetics Cons: Probably still more expensive than other cables that might do as good of a job (but I happily pay a little more for AudioQuest products because of my past experiences with the brand) 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Written By Bill C, Hull, MA on Monday, June 17, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought a Cambridge Audio Topaz amp from Crutchfield, and 2 good speakers to go with it, all to hook up to a great SONY turntable I've had for about 7 years, and you recommended these speaker wires. I was taken aback because I though, hey, speaker wire is speaker wire, but these blew me away. The amp is relatively small, the speakers the size of small shoeboxes, but the entire system sounds way "bigger" than it is.

The Best, Love them 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Audioquest - The Real Deal Written By Anonymous, Dallas GA on Saturday, February 16, 2013 I have been using boutique speaker wire for a long time. I paid dearly for them too. I decided to try AQ's Pearl HDMI cables after reading that they were the cat sass in What Hi-Fi magazine. I had just gotten a new Plasma TV and blew a wad on it so I didn't have the dead presidents for expensive cables. I bought three of them, hooked them up, and could not believe the performance. This got me thinking about interconnects so I bought the G - Snakes for my CD player and Turntable. Same result - Wow !!! Of course, now I had to try the Type 4's on my Martin Logan Source hybrids. I could not believe the difference ! It was as if someone took blankets off of them. The bass was so much more powerful that I took my 10 inch Velodyne subwoofer off the system. It is collecting dust in the closet now. The soundstage opened up and now I play music at two thirds the previous volume. AQ products helped my system more than I can explain. Expensive? Yes. Worth it ? Yes, oh yes. Solid conductor technology really works and I am sure of it. Buy these with confidence ! Pros: Sound, looks, sonic beauty. No break in period that I can tell. Sounded great out of the box. Cons: None 7 out of 8 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Cables matter! Written By Audioquest type 4's, Scottsdale AZ on Friday, November 09, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Thanks to Norm at Crutchfield...a real audio guy who steered me in the right direction. Cables are not voodoo magic but rather what was missing in my system. They highlight tones and sharpen the sound stage. If you can spring for the cash, do it!! Pros: Quality you can see and hear. Cons: Pricey. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Type 4 -- Worth it! Written By Tom, Rochester NY on Saturday, May 26, 2012 When I upgraded my living room speakers to PSB Synchrony Twos, I was still using Audioquest X2 14 gauge speaker wire. Wanted to get as much as I could from my NAD T787 AVR, and was only running 5.2 in that room, so bi-amped with the X2, which gave more depth but for most sources not a huge difference. After a while wondered if stepping up to solid wire like Type 4 would make more of a difference, finally gave it a go bi-wiring. Definite improvement in clarity, especially noticeable in the Synchrony C center, but towers seemed to lose a bit of their punch, so somewhat disappointed. Then decided that if I'd gone this far, might as well finish the job, so bit the bullet and went the bi-AMP route with Type 4. WOW! Everything came alive and have both the clarity and oomph I was hoping for. Had to re-adjust speaker settings several dbs and use port plugs on the Synchronies because bass output kicked up several notches, though was still very clean. Exceptional sound now from all sources, from NAD 565 CD player to Oppo 93 BluRays, even Cable TV and Airplay streaming via Marantz NA7004 with Apple Lossless files. Funny, my first thought was "now it all finally sounds like it did at the shop!". Yeah, the cost of cables can get pretty ridiculous, but I love music and it's worth it to me to get as much as I can from my system, even if the individual improvements are subtle, because they add up. I'm now a believer in solid wire designs. Pros: Instant improvement in clarity, especially if bi-wiring -- additional depth if bi-amp Cons: cost, of course :) 11 out of 11 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Yes | No 5 out of 5 What a difference a cable makes! Written By Martin, Chico, CA on Tuesday, March 03, 2009 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) About 10 years ago I bought a Yamaha shelf stereo system from Crutchfield (when I still lived in Charlottesville and could buy it in the brick-and-mortar version). It still works and sounds surprisingly well but I am in the middle of upgrading my AV system. I started with new speaker cables, replacing the thin out-of-the-box Yamaha cables with these AudioQuest cables. Wow! I didn't know that that little shelf system could sound so good! The speakers are on Sanus SF22 stands, which already cleaned up the sound. But with these cables the detail, staging, localization and definition has increased enormously. At first I felt a bit silly to spend this much on speaker cables, but when I turned on a CD to hear the results and could not turn off the CD until I had listened and enjoyed it all the way through I knew it was worth it. 19 out of 24 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Features High Performance Speaker Design: The Klipsch KMC 3 combines a 2.1ch speaker system, bass-reflex enclosure, 130-watt (peak) bi-amped digital amplification, and advanced DSP equalization for accurate reproduction of all music types. Dual 2" full-range aluminum drivers, internally chambered to minimize distortion, provide a clean and highly balanced sound up to 24kHz. A unique tuned dual-flare port system combines with the built-in 5.25" long-throw woofer for deep bass down to 40Hz. A 15-watt x 2-channel digital amp powers the dual full-range drivers, while a 35-watt digital amplifier powers the subwoofer. The KMC 3 also employs advanced DSP equalization for lifelike, dynamic sound at any volume level. Built-in Bluetooth w/ AptX: The Klipsch KMC 3 features built-in Bluetooth A2DP/AVRCP technology which allows you to wirelessly stream audio from your Bluetooth-enabled Apple iPod/iPhone/iPad, Android smartphone/tablet, Blackberry, or laptop/computer. You'll be able to stream stored music or music apps from your Bluetooth-enabled device and control playback from the included remote control. AptX audio coding technology allows for lossless, audiophile-quality streaming. The unit can be paired with up to 8 devices (only one can be used at a time). Once paired, the KMC 3 will automatically re-connect to the last device used. Note: Due to the differences in Bluetooth technology, some Bluetooth enabled devices may be incompatible, function improperly, or may not support all features when used with the Klipsch KMC 3.

The remote also supports basic playback functions of your Bluetooth streamed music, such as Play/Pause and Track Forward/Reverse. Auxiliary Input: The Klipsch KMC 3 is fitted with a 3.5mm auxiliary input to connect virtually any portable audio device with a headphone output. USB Charging Port: The KMC 3 features a USB (type-A) port used to charge your smartphone or other USB-enabled portable audio device. This USB port does not support audio playback. You can choose to power your device using either AC or battery power. However, charging with battery power will reduce battery life. If batteries are already weak, the USB connection will not charge your device. Integrated Carry Handle: The integrated carry handle lets you easily move the KMC 3 room to room or take it anywhere with you. Power Requirements: The Klipsch KMC 3 operates off of AC or DC power. Simply plug the included AC power adapter and cord into an AC wall outlet for AC power. The KMC 3 also operates off of DC power using eight "D" batteries (sold separately). You get 26 hours of playback time at moderate volume and 8 hours of playback at maximum volume. Product reviews from the Crutchfield Labs (what are the Labs?)

Pros: clean sound, more volume than you need, solid built quality product from Klipsch Cons: i don't mind the weight with the batteries, mostly use A/C 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 2 out of 5 Klipsch KM-3---Not the best of its field Written By CMJ, Alexandria, VA on Sunday, March 09, 2014 Having canvassed the internet for the best bluetooth speaker dock at this price point, I was persuaded by what seemed like an onslaught of positive reviews for the Klipsch KMC-3. I had previous experience with Klipsch headphones and am well-aware of Kipsch's stellar reputation amongst audiophiles; therefore, I decided to take the plunge and purchase this speaker. Well, in the interim, I had also ordered a heavily discounted JBL Rumble. Side by side, the JBL Rumble beats the Klipsch in a number of areas. For one, the JBL Rumble separation of vocal, instruments and elements to tracks (electronic, accapella, classical, rap) is quite evident, whereas the Klipsch KMC-3 seems blunt and muddy. The second attribute is the range of equalization settings (2 of which are physical buttons on the JBL Rumble itself) and additional settings within the JBL MusicFlow app. All of these settings, especially the Club setting, open up the sound and provided a very expansive soundscape; this is no doubt aided by the fact that the speakers themselves are wrapped around the JBL Rumble. The Klipsch, by contrast, only shines if you are directly in front of it---and that sound, even at its best, doesn't compare to the JBL Rumble. I tried a number of scenarios to prove myself wrong---using airplay, direct auxiliary connection, regular bluetooth, APTX (with the KMC-3). The Rumble, even without the APTX codec, sounded better than the KMC-3 APTX. Pros: Looks Great Good Bass Cons: *Muddy Wall of Sound, Little Separation *APTX sounds worse than regular bluetooth even when paired with an APTX capable Android tablet *Bluetooth must be re-paired with IOS Devices each time bluetooth is used because the initial remembered connection with an IOS device (tested with an iPhone 5 and iPad Air) is full of static and crackling (like a scratched record) when automatically connecting. This did not happen with my MacBook Air or Android Tablet. 4 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Written By Mrs.DD, Southern California on Saturday, December 21, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I searched and searched for the right "dock" to listen to Pandora on my Android. I wanted top notch sound and not too big of a speaker. Big enough to support great sound, but small enough to be able to carry and move to different parts of the house. Since most docks are tailored for iPhones, the Crutchfield team strongly recommended the Klipsch® Music Center KMC 3. It's like a small boom box that delivers great sound and the fact that it also charge my phone and can be used outdoors (requires batteries), was a hug plus! The Crutchfield team was right to recommend the Klipsch® Music Center KMC 3. I am not disappointed and love listening to Pandora as I cook in the kitchen, get ready in the bathroom or enjoying company out in my patio. Pros: Great, overall sound. Size is like a small boom box. Cons: Wish I could control the bass. Sometimes I don't need as much. But well balanced sound overall. Rated a 4 because of this. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 kmc3 Written By mtwray, wernersville pa on Friday, December 20, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) awesome product, best available bar none Pros: klipsch--enough said in the name Cons: none Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Klipsch KMC 3 Review Written By Malibumike, NY on Thursday, November 07, 2013 Like many of you reading this I searched long and hard for reviews, Youtube videos, anything I could find out there. It wasn't until the speaker became available in stores (I could go listen) that I decided to take the plunge. - SO glad that I did. I will be honest and tell you I'm a bit of a Klipsch fan. I have a 7.2 setup of Klipsch quintets in one room. Main living room has a 7.1 Klipsch reference II series set. But, what I also wanted was to be able to take that quality of audio with me. Camping, backyard parties, fishing...I can't wait (getting cold here on the east coast, so it might be awhile.) After auditioning some of the major brands and better bluetooth speaker options (list below) I can say for certain, the KMC 3 is the best I've heard. Speakers I've listened to: Bose sound link 2 Bose sound link mini UE Boom UE mini boom Beats pill Beats Beatbox Sony srs-btx300 JBL Flip Jawbone Big Jambox Motorola Sol Republic X Jabra Solemate I've researched many others as well, a lot, and probably too much time has gone into finding what I wanted...bit obsessive maybe? For sure. BUT, Let me pass what I've learned onto you. What makes the KMC 3 Stand out from the crowd? 1) Its size - I actually wanted something a bit smaller, however, after listening to many speakers and knowing what would make an audio enthusiast content, I had to go for something a bit larger. Klipsch did a great job with the size of this (7.2" H x 17" W x 5.5" D). you get big sound in a relatively small package. They do in fact sell a smaller version of this speaker - KMC 1, and an ultra portable model coming soon - GIG. I've not heard them due to availability in stores. 2) APT-X Codec - I won't get into details, but if you have a capable bluetooth apt-x device, you will absolutely tell the difference in audio quality between those that do, and those that do not. It's a shame Bose is stubborn, and will probably never use this technology in their speakers. All bluetooth speakers should be using apt-x at this point. 3) Design - It's sleek, mature, classy. From soft finish to solid hefty feel, it oozes quality. 4) Sound Clarity - Again going back to apt-x. Every sound is extremely crisp. others without apt-x sound dull in comparison. I've even listened to music with a non apt-x source as well - iphones. The sound is still better on this speaker than other similarly priced ones. If you have an apt-x device such as many Samsung phones / tablets. I highly suggest a 3rd party music app called Neutron. You will hear audiophile sound coming from this speaker. It's truly an experience, so much so, you will want to listen to all of your favorites again. 5) Bass - Again, very clean at MORE than reasonable sound levels. I've read others say it can get a bit muddy when at extreme levels, but lets face it...anything this compact will. Let me tell you it's not even a concern. I have this thing sitting on top of a granite ta 11 out of 12 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Hard to believe this sound. Worth every penny if you care about sound and you want to crank it up! Pros: Sound, portability. Cons: D batteries.

Good bass and vocals! Cons: Only complain is the remote not being consistent when pressing volume or tracks!!!! 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Klipsch KMC3 Written By Josh, Charlottesville, VA on Friday, July 26, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great, deep, rich sounding bluetooth boom box. I listened to every other comparable device around this price range at the Crutchfield store and none compared to the fullness of sound delivered by the Klipsch. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is because it uses 8D batteries. A battery pack that recharges when your plug it in should be standard at this point. That being said, I think it was purposeful because rechargeable batteries wouldn't be able to produce this kind of deep bass for more than a couple hours. I used this all weekend at the pool and didn't have to change the batteries. I would say the battery life is indeed in the 20+ hour range, and any time you're near a socket you can plug it in and save batteries. Pros: Deeper bass and better sound than any other portable bluetooth boom box out there. Cons: Requires 8D batteries to go completely wireless. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Haven't had a chance to try it with the batteries yet, but Klipsch never disappoints with their products. Only complaint I would have is the fact that they didn't opt for a rechargeable lithium battery pack for this, which is why I gave it 4*. Connectivity has been no issue for any of the devices I've tried, and everything operates very smoothly. Overall great product and is of excellent build quality, which is to be expected of Klipsch. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Klipsch!!!

All I can say is this thing will blow you away! Everything is simple, user friendly and super clear. This thing is a bargain for the price. I love it when my friends hear it and say..."How is that much sound coming out of that black box!!" Get you some quality rechargeable D-cells and don't look back. This thing will turn heads!

Yes | No 5 out of 5 Easily The Best Portable Stereo Unit For Sale Written By Driver_King, Orlando, FL on Thursday, June 20, 2013 The Klipsch KMC 3 handily whoops competition in nearly every aspect of sound. From its accurate treble and highs that add clarity, detail, and precision to individual instruments to its pleasing, tonally neutral and accurate midrange - vocals, instrumental reproduction (from smooth jazz, to metal, to EDM, pop music, etc.) - and finally its low end prowess with unexpectedly powerful bass extension, heft, and unusually 'fast', responsive (not sloppy or exaggerated - I'm looking at you Bose and Beats) lower register tones, the Klipsch KMC 3 is an all around triple threat to its competition. While I am a fan of all technologies and am incredibly open minded to trying different brands and technologies, after trying the most popular options for portable music units - including Bowers and Wilkin's Zeppelin, the Bose SoundDocks, Beats Beatbox, and Sonos Play3 and Play5 - I have yet to find a unit that can tick the three aforementioned areas of sound quality off of its kickin' qualities list. So far, only Klipsch has managed to knock that list out of the park and as far as I'm concerned, there is not a better portable sound dock for the money. Unlike many of its competitors, it does not need to be in the corner to provide excellent bass quality (actually, placed in the corner may provide too much bass depending on the song, which you could accordingly EQ out on your phone if need be). All in all, as a portable system, it cannot be beat. I highly recommend this unit. Pros: * Wireless connectivity * Bluetooth APT-X (plus 3.5mm) * Excellent sound quality * SOLID Bass extension down to about 35hz (not just port chuffing) * Excellent midrange and treble reproduction * Great at very low volume levels * Incredible dynamics * Integrated DSP improves sound quality of any music (loudness, dynamics, EQ, etc.) * IT'S PORTABLE * Buy rechargeable D batteries - get DAYS of music playback on a SINGLE charge (recharge up to 1000 times) * AMAZING build and look * Built Cons: * No EQ? (Not a big deal - IF you need any, EQ your source) * APT-x isn't available on more devices (not a fault of the product but just the newness of the technology) * A little heavy - still incredibly portable. * Doesn't have a 15" subwoofer driver? Seriously though. Can you fault a unit for not having the capability to hook up to an external subwoofer for ultra low frequencies (sub 30hz?) /// Not really a con * Klipsch app is NOT available for Windows Phone or Windows 8... 5 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Yes, it is expensive, but the sound quality is phenomenal! and worth every penny! Batteries work great and for a long period of time at high volume...Yes, High volumes. This is one heck of a speaker and it surely will impress you and anyone else listening. First time I fired up this bad-boy at a party in my backyard, everyone was amazed and pleased with its performance and wanted to know where I got it. Told them Crutchfields - online. Don't wait these are truly fine speakers that can be used anywhere. Pros: Wickedly potent high fidelity wireless speaker, Bluetooth works flawlessly (easy pairing, great distance), Good battery life, nice small remote.

This speaker is hands down the best thing I ever heard! I got rid of a Bose sound link 2 as soon as I heard the klipsch kmc 3. The sound detail is amazing you can hear every detail. The massive bass this thing puts out is clean, tight, and hard hitting. So far I've been pushing these speakers for 3 weeks, 15 hrs a day, and have no complaints besides once in a while when listening to a certain low frequency at almost full volume you can hear port noise. I find myself wanting to hear music all the time almost like an addiction to the sound. Forget the rest and buy It already. One more thing if you close your eyes and stand in front it you'll think your at a concert! Pros: Extreme clarity, unheard of sound for the size, lots of clean hard hitting bass. Addicting Cons: At high volumes with a song that has massive bass you can hear port noise 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 POWER IN A SMALL PACKAGE!

The attention to detail from packaging all the way to the unit is very professional. its easy to operate and I love the fact that it is portable. The highs and mids are crystal clear and the bass on this little unit is amazing. very pleased with my purchase. Pros: A lot of bang for your buck for a portable system.

Written By Johnny Audio 73, Jamestown, ND on Tuesday, May 21, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Very well packaged as usual from the folks at Crutchfield. Klipsch did a great job with their packaging as well. Very nice. This is no light weight speaker, there is some serious audio hardware in this little beauty. This is my equipment set up, a 5th Gen. iPod Touch, AudioQuest Sydney 3.5 mm cable all plugged into this not so little Godzilla speaker system. I realize I am old school with regards to direct cabling, but I feel you get better audio and save on source and speaker power if you are running off of batteries. As to battery power I have not tested the length of time that the 8 D's will last, but we will see. As far as audio quality is concerned treble and midrange are crystal clear and the bass extension is nothing short of amazing. This speaker system will deliver accurate sound pressure levels that will astound anyone. If you do go for direct 3.5 mm cabling route note that when the KMC is powered up make sure the volume level is set at almost zero. The sound source volume (i Pod) is set at wide open and plugged into the 3. Sit back and you will look like the old Maxell cassette tape commercial. This thing rocks. Pros: Accurate home theatre like detailed sound from a speaker not much bigger than a loaf of bread. Very High tech drivers. Nice sounding and pleasing to the ear at low and high volumes. Great soundstage! Cons: Hoping for a carrying case to follow soon. Expensive, but what isn't that is this much fun. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 2 questions already asked I bought the Klipsch KMC3 and I want to add 1 more, is it possible to connect the 2 KMC3 with one player via blutooth? [ Garry Feb 03, 2014 ] 1 answer We have not received any answers from other customers on your question. I would recommend reaching out to an Advisor by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat. They should be able to help answer your question. [ Jeff Staff Feb 05, 2014 ] just wondering if you could hook this to a TV? Has anyone tried this? [ R Feb 01, 2014 ] 8 answers The Klipsch KMC3 has an auxiliary input into which one can hook up anything via a 1/8" mini-jack cable. Most TVs have a red/white RCA output and for less than 10$ you can get an RCA to mini-jack cable. The bass on this system is incredible and would be great for movie watching. [ JOSH Feb 04, 2014 ] This Klipsch speaker is fantastic! I prefer more bass and I've read some reviews stating the bass is too "muddy". Keep in mind, however, you can adjust the bass through most devices such as your PC, laptop, etc. When plugged into a wall socket, this speaker will also perform through your TV that has a standard 3.5mm headphone output. Tip: I do not own a tablet or a an iPad, etc. However, I purchased a separate Bluetooth USB Dongle for my laptop to stream Pandora music wirelessly. It's GREAT! [ DENNIS Feb 02, 2014 ] thanks, thought so, just wanted to be sure [ R Feb 02, 2014 ] Yes, this can be connected to a TV via the AUX port. [ B Feb 02, 2014 ] Thanks! [ R Feb 02, 2014 ] Thanks much! [ R Feb 02, 2014 ] I have connected this to my tv. I used the supplied aux cable and connected it to the headphone port on the tv. Also works this way with the klipsch GiG. [ JULIUS Feb 02, 2014 ] If your TV has a headphone or audio out that uses a 3.5mm jack you could use that route, and KMC 3 comes with a short mini to mini cable to connect to the aux input on the back. I suppose you could convert RCA out to mini jack as well. I did it with the supplied cable and it was much better than the TV speakers, but you won't have simulated surround sound options like you would with a sound bar made for a TV. Sounds good if you just want stereo sound with more base.

I have been looking around a little on this lately and I know there is a thread lingering around here. Is there a significant performance difference with a 60# bow that is maxed - figured maybe 60-63# if bottomed out? - compared to a 70# that is backed down to 62-64#?
I currently have a 70# that I am pulling 64-67, don't know exactly, and don't have any problems with it. I don't know that I'll really ever need to shoot a full 70#, but could if I really wanted to - so that had me thinking about maybe getting 60# for my next bow. I was reading on AT some guys that like the 60# and are getting pretty good numbers in fps/KE for hunting as well.

Retail purchasing behavior is proof that dairy welfare programs are important.
Last year, Purdue University researchers asked 1,000 households about their perceptions and preferences for dairy products and the importance of dairy product attributes. "The attributes ranked the most important by participants were fat content and protein content, followed by 'produced on farms with animal welfare and handling standards in place,'" says Melissa McKendree, a graduate student in the department of agricultural economics at Purdue.
On-farm dairy welfare evaluations and welfare audits do more than assure customers that your animals are treated humanely. Here's a look at other benefits that producers have gained from these programs.
How did we overlook that?
Aurora Organic Farms, based out of Platteville, Colo., has been welfare-certified since 2006.
The reason Aurora went through an assessment and auditing program offered by Validus, a third-party auditor, was really quite simple.
"We wanted to verify that what we were currently doing for our cows was right for our cows and our animals," says Emily Prisco, director of farm resources.
The assessment didn't reveal any major animal welfare issues, she says, but it did draw attention to some basic things that are easy to overlook during the day-to-day running of a dairy.
One of the areas scored during the initial assessment was the cleanliness of the cows' water supply. A score of 1 is equivalent to saying you or I would drink out of the trough. A score of 2 means there is room for improvement, and a score of 3 is a red flag — nobody would drink out of that trough.
Aurora originally scored a 2 in water supply cleanliness. It taught them to look closely at the little things and gave them a renewed commitment to monitoring for opportunities in easy-to-overlook areas.
Something like this isn't that difficult to correct, and the end result is a reflection of your commitment to animal care.
"We went from having 2's to having 1's," Prisco says. "It's just a really good process to go through to verify you really are doing what's right for the animals."
Put those SOPs in writing
About a year ago, Jim Reid of Jeddo, Mich., went through the National Dairy FARM Animal Care ProgramTM. FARM is a voluntary program managed by the National Milk Producers Federation.
Member representatives from Reid's cooperative, Michigan Milk Producers Association, came out to the farm to do the evaluation. During the evaluation, they went over a checklist with Reid. It opened his eyes to the importance of keeping written standard operating procedures — a practice often talked about, but not always implemented.

Changing the rules
|Will a measure altering the governance of CATS make the agency more businesslike or give the board too much power?
As the co-chairs of Taxbusters, Glenda Pollard and Elizabeth Dent attempted to rally white conservatives to beat back the transit tax. Based on the election returns April 21, they did OK, although votes from the more liberal, minority districts in the low-turnout election were enough to carry the day, at least in Baker and Baton Rouge; the tax was crushed in Zachary.
Throughout a lengthy lunchtime conversation at Maxwell's Market on Corporate Boulevard, the two women expound on the evils of high taxes, the legislative process and, especially, the interfaith coalition Together Baton Rouge, which pushed for the transit measure. At one point, Maxwell's owner Ron Lewis walks by and demands to know how it could be legal to tax his store yet not Towne Center across the street. (Towne Center is outside the city limits.) Clearly, the feelings around this transit tax remain raw.
Tax supporters would like to see proponents and opponents put aside their differences and come together for the good of the parish. But Pollard and Dent are having none of it. Their new fight is over governance reforms that would remove the Metro Council's veto power over the Capital Area Transit System's operations, and require most of the CATS board members to be drawn from a pool nominated by 13 civic and business organizations (see sidebar below).
At press time, the measure, which Dent and Pollard lobbied against for weeks, had passed the Louisiana Senate and was headed back to the House, which already had passed a different version, for possible concurrence. Supporters say the measure will allow CATS to be run more like a business, but skeptics fear giving the board too much power.
Together Baton Rouge contends a revamped CATS board will be more accountable, and have more eyes watching it, than any other unelected board in the parish. And they have a point; TBR has publicized a specific timeline of reforms to which they intend to hold the system.
But at the end of the day, as with other such boards, an aggrieved citizen will have few options other than showing up at a public meeting and complaining. Regardless of what happens with CATS, the debate over its board raises the question of whether folks who never have to go before the voters should ever conduct the public's business.
Rallying cry
Critics sometimes say that giving unelected boards authority over public funds amounts to "taxation without representation." That phrase, a rallying cry during the American Revolution, is not in the U.S. Constitution. The state's constitution says "the power of taxation shall be vested in the legislature, shall never be surrendered, suspended, or contracted away, and shall be exercised for public purposes only."
The Legislature has a great deal of latitude in exercising that power, says David R. Cassidy, a tax attorney with Breazeale, Sachse & Wilson. Cassidy tracked down a relevant 1969 Louisiana case involving a harbor district that seems to have been set up much like the proposed new governance structure for CATS.
"These plaintiffs, and the class they represent, have absolutely no choice in the selection of the board members who have the right to tax them," the court said. "This is indeed taxation without representation. Four of the five members are selected from a panel of names submitted by�private organizations completely beyond and immune to the elective process."
However, the Louisiana Supreme Court reversed the trial court's decision, stating that the harbor district primarily was an administrative body with limited taxing power. The high court says governing authorities can't give Joe Blow the authority to levy and collect a tax as he sees fit, but they can allow Joe to administer the use of a tax that has been properly authorized.
Whether this sort of delegation of power is a good idea or not is a matter of opinion; many people have issues with the local parks and library boards, which also are unelected. On the other hand, many of those same people are just as critical of the parish school board and the Metro Council itself, which are directly elected.
Janet Howard, CEO of the New Orleans-based Bureau of Governmental Research, says in some cases, direct voter input can make it harder to run a unit of government like a business. BGR recently recommended eliminating elected officials from the city's Sewerage & Water Board and limiting City Council authority over rate adjustments.
A proposal to change the governance structure of the Capital Area Transit System's board would allow the mayor of Baker and the mayor-president of East Baton Rouge Parish to make one appointment each. The Metro Council would make the rest of the appointments from candidates submitted by the following people and organizations. The council would have the right to add more organizations to the list.
The Baton Rouge Area Chamber
Together Baton Rouge
The Center for Planning Excellence
AARP Louisiana
The Louisiana Hospital Association
The chancellor of LSU
The chancellor of Southern University
The chancellor of Baton Rouge Community College
The Arc of Baton Rouge
The Louisiana Bankers Association
Visit Baton Rouge
The Baton Rouge Black Chamber of Commerce
The Louisiana AFL-CIO
"What you're trying to do is set up an institution that's pretty much insulated from politics," Howard explains. Under the current system, the New Orleans City Council has no responsibility for the operations of the sewer and water system but plenty of political pressure to keep rates low, often killing or delaying rate increases despite pressing needs.
Last year, CATS chief executive Brian Marshall asked the Metro Council for one of two things: Either give us more money, or let us cut seldom-used routes. The council said no to both requests; and their refusal to let CATS make a business decision, and the fact that peer cities don't have political bodies meddling in the operations of their transit systems, supports the idea of giving the CATS board some measure of independence, Marshall says.
The Metro Council is likely to eliminate a $3 million subsidy it has provided in the past. It will retain the right to put people on the board, but Councilman Scott Wilson says that's not enough accountability for a body that's about to start drawing 10.6 mills a year from every property owner in Baton Rouge and Baker.
"If CATS wants to dictate routes and things like that, that's fine," Wilson says. "[But] that board has to be accountable to somebody. That's taxpayer money."
Wilson isn't sure what a better accountability system might look like, but suggests more engagement from the public would help.
"People in this parish have got to step forward," he says. "It's hard sometimes to find people who want to volunteer to be on these boards. You can't sit back and complain about it unless you get in the game."
Recall power
State Sen. Dan Claitor, a Baton Rouge Republican, says he was able to remove a provision that would have given the CATS board expropriation power. He opposes taking away the Metro Council's veto power, and says the information he's seen shows that CATS should be able to fix its problems now that it has a significant dedicated funding stream, and that governance changes aren't needed.
One change Claitor considered pushing for, and one that he thinks should be considered for unelected boards statewide, is the creation of a mechanism that would allow the voters to recall board members that they feel haven't managed the taxpayers' money properly. The recall petitions would be held to the same standards as the general election code, which generally requires signatures from a third of qualified voters in a given area before holding a recall election.
"That would at least be a mechanism that people could pull the trigger on," Claitor says. "It wouldn't be a hair trigger; it would be a trigger you would have to pull with both hands."
Pollard and Dent say the proposed law would prevent the council from selecting the "best" candidates by limiting the slate to people put forward by a bunch of "liberal" groups. Claitor considered trying to add other groups, such as Taxbusters and the conservative Louisiana Association of Business and Industry, to the list of organizations, but decided not to because he didn't feel he could support the bill even with changes. (The Metro Council would have the ability to add new groups, assuming a House amendment remains intact.)
Pollard and Dent say they're not interested; they don't want to condone the new structure. Pollard is certain a Taxbusters rep would be outvoted on the board anyway, overwhelmed by the "groupthink" of the other board members.
But they admit they don't have a better proposal, nor do they argue that the Metro Council has done a good job making appointments or using its veto power in the past.
"We're volunteers," Dent says, not elected officials with a responsibility to propose solutions. However, they hint that they're trying to organize a conservative citizens group, sort of an alternative to the Baton Rouge Tea Party, that would be proactive in pushing for change.
"Maybe it's our time," Dent says. "We're not going to go away."
