Welcome to the lunacy club called Musiholicism. The natural love of music gets us here and I haven’t been cured since I caugh the disease in 1966. I went crazy for about 15 years sampling every type of ss equipment know to man. In 1982 my wife acquired a set of klipschorns (Blew my head off). Finally graduated to a mcintosh ma6900 in 2001. In 2018 I upgraded the khorns to a FULL volti audio upgrade. And then somebody introduced me to tubes!!I just acquired an accembled Thorsten Loeshe 300B build kit. Lets see. 78 years old, 55 years later, still got the sickness. Hope you get over it!! Helps if your wife starts it!!! Happy listening!!
New Audiophile going crazy
Hello,
I've always been a music fan, play guitar and have dedicated HT, stadium seating and so on. Beginning in about November I started collecting some vintage equipment. A Kenwood receiver from the 70's, a nice Adcom amp
(GFA-555), Sonic Frontiers SFL-1 Signature. Apparently that was just the taste I needed because I went into high gear at that point. B&W 802's (series 80's), 805 Nautilus, HTM2 center and a thumping B&W sub. I constructed a 2-channel system for my home office made of McIntosh C28 pre, a 2105 amp, Rega P3 and Pioneer 707 R2R and full set of Dalquist DQ-10 (sub unit and crossover) all in mint condition. And of course, all the Audioquest cabling to connect it all. To go with all those Bowers & Wilkins I picked up a Mac MX135 and a MC7108 just this weekend. House is wired for two channel in every room already so the multi-zone seemed a good choice.
Now, I'm sitting here looking at projectors to re[place the one in the theater. I've become quite consumed with upgrading all my equipment.
That's since Thanksgiving. Is there any hope for me? I have to get this "Obsession" under control. Any advice?
:-)
