  1. OK, I have just mounted my new Presonus Eris E5 XT studio monitors on the wall behind my Privia PX-870 digital piano. I think these look quite nice, and they sound incredible. I certainly won't have to add a subwoofer to this setup, as they indeed provide plenty of bass all on their own. I prefer to use the monitors AND the piano's four onboard speakers simultaneously... the combined sound definitely gives the instrument a much fuller, "more enveloped" sound experience than either just one or the other could ever provide on their own. Here's a photo of my current setup:
  2. Thanks KenElevenShadows, I snapped that iceberg photo from my (dirty) bedroom window one day when I was unable to get outdoors due to my ongoing spinal difficulties. The picture doesn't do this iceberg justice, as it's difficult to get a real grasp of it's immense proportions. I estimate that it towered about 120 ft out of the water... and it's worth noting that 90% of an iceberg remains below the waterline. It's kinda weird how it can be a scorching 30+© outside, and yet we look out our window and see these enormous chunks of ice. And best of all, they act as nature's own air conditioners... you can actually feel the chill emanating from them while we're sitting on our patio. We never tire of these majestic beauties, which we see regularly in our neck of the woods from April through July most years. Here's a few more for you...
  3. I recently joined this fine forum, as I have just returned to playing after a decades-long hiatus, (have just bought a new digital piano) and a kind member who had just visited my Newfoundland nature/landscape photography website pointed me to "The Big Picture". So I'd like to post a few images here... all of these photographs were captured right from our shoreline directly in front of our oceanfront home on Fogo Island, (situated a one-hour ferry ride off the north coast of Newfoundland, Canada) to give you an idea of what life is like in our neck of the woods. We never tire of this stunning view right from our living room window! PS: clicking on each photo will take you to the hosting site for a larger, clearer image.
  4. Nah, Santa's had it pretty easy this Christmas! Last year he gave me a luxurious new SUV with all the bells and whistles, and the previous year two new motorcycles... so he's finding this year's gifts to be much easier to manage!
  5. Thanks everyone, for the warm welcome; much appreciated! Yup, Santa just gave me yet another early present... a lovely pair of Presonus Eris E5 "XT" studio monitors for my new Casio Privia PX-870. Unfortunately due to space restraints, they must be wall-mounted, but I'm ok with that. My Rockville (RHSB8) mounting brackets have just arrived, so that'll be tomorrow's project. Thanks, davedoerfler... next I'll go check out "The Big Picture" forum!!
  6. Hi everyone. This is my very first post on this fine forum!!! My name is Glen, and I am a formally-trained pianist who resides in Newfoundland, Canada. Santa has given me an early Christmas present this year... an awesome new Casio Privia PX-870 digital piano... and I am totally in LOVE with it!
