Title: new guy from Michigan
Post by: DonC on August 27, 2020, 08:31:49 PM
Hi gang, apparently I registered here back in 2013 but never really jumped in.  :-#  So... HI!

Anyway, been doing the audio thing since I was a kid, but more seriously in the past 15 or so years. (Early-mid 40s now, married, no kids.) I listen to mostly to Jazz, classical, and opera (not always in that order) and some other genres, too. I have my feet planted firmly in both analog and digital camps, as well as tube and solid-state camps. I eschew tribalism.   8)

Modest system (see signature) and often tweaking, but much more focused on music and listening lately than gear. (So it goes.)

Nice place you got! I'll browse around here some more...

Hi Don,
Glad you’re joining in  :thumb:  A very nice selection of equipment and a cozy, treated room. Sounds good to me 🎶🎶

Welcome! Looks like a comfy man cave to me.

What are all those black roundish things on top of the middle stand?

Those are disused electricity pole insulators, serving the new dual purposes as cable risers and "collection" fodder.

I thought they looked kinda like that, but wasn't sure with having a whole collection of them.
