Hi Guys,

Thank you for allowing me to join this community, I have noticed is a very close and friendly group. I live in Puerto Rico, and yes, I survived hurricane Maria this past September. I have been an audio enthusiast since my early college days. I am a recently retired chemical engineer with 30 years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry. My current system is: https://cgi.audioasylum.com/systems/534.html

Nothing impressive but is an evolving project which I enjoy. Also, English is not my native language, so feel free to correct me if my thoughts are not expressed correctly. Once again, thank you guys.

Welcome Cesar:
This is a great place to hang. Some great knowledge in a lot of the guys here
(not yours truly) thus I hope you find much enjoyment here. Ask or comment
about anything cause the guys here have placed the bar pretty low in tolerating me.

Don
ps: Spent a couple weeks on your beautiful Island and enjoyed immensely.

Hi Rich,
Basically, all the trees and palm trees around the house are gone and were minor damages to the house structure. Fortunately, I have taken care of all house repairs and presently I am doing some improvements to be prepared for the next hurricane season. But it was quite an experience which I hope not to go through again. Still there are sectors without power and potable water; it was total devastation.

Welcome, and am glad you made it safe through the bad weather.

Nice system by the way. I was half expecting to hear about 15" woofers on some Cerwin Vegas!
