you never cease to amaze me!  looks great..I want one!

I thought you were "out of the game"...

Mike may take a little time off to do a few other things, but he will never be "Out of the game".

It's in his blood.  :D

True.
want to know why?
and the why is the why in all of us....because...

we love music

and while we do not NEED expensive or exotic gear to make us happy

music does make us high

so the thought of exploring different methods of recreating music excites us as well.

Simple as that!

So while I hike away in the woods or mountains, music is still there, one never replaces a love.
System consists of an amp a preamp, 2 speakers a turntable and a phono preamp, Also some cables and power cords and a really cheap cd player.

Very true Mike and I'm never happier than when I'm at a vinyl shop searching through piles of records.

Very true. My comment was a bit "tongue in cheek"...I had a feeling he'd be back.

I'd like to add that another big rush I get from this hobby is when I flick the switch on a new piece of gear I've built and it works! With no smoke! And sounds great! Always a little bit nervous on that first switch-on, though...especially with the 2.3kV amps - I had a fire extinguisher ready, just in case!

If the music you hear is played by this guy, run like hell.

  

Otherwise, this guy will replace that love
