I got into it through my friend and his dad. His dad was a rep for quite a few speaker companies in the 80's and early 90's and still does some work for a couple of them. It kind of shocked me the first time i heard his set of M&K's or his dahlquists or the RTR's in his garage. Now i own a set of dahlquists and thanks to him, i will no longer be able to enjoy having money ever again (fast food jobs arent conducive to maintaining an expensive hobby).
How did you get into this hobby?
I grew up listening to small boom boxes, never heard even a Mid-fi system.
When i joined the military, i first started seeing some component systems. Bass pumping, louder than the big bang.
I thought, "How cool"
Bought my first reciever a few months ago, and a couple low end speakers. Ever since then ive been upgrading.
Now my current system retails new at over 8k(everything included) paid under 6.5k, and with upgrades ive spend over 11k so far.
Been doing this for maybe 5 -6 years
