Words From the Wise


Hello fellow Audiophiles and Audio Enthousiast. I've been in the game for a little over 4 months now and I've learned tonnes of stuff along the way thanks to some very knowledgeable people on this website and in my local community (but mostly on this website).

I'll get right to the point.

Whether you are new to the game or a veteran I'm curious to hear your thoughts on the top 5 things you would tell a fellow Audiophile to better his/her enjoyment of this wonderful hobby. Please use point form or short paragraphs

I have been designing and istalling hi-end audio systems for over 30 years. I feel for consumers because its a very daunting task. It takes patience, knowledge, and money, to design a truely state of the art audio system. You have two choices, ether spend some serious time to learn all about stereo systems or, I would suggest finding a saleman that you really believe in to help you thru the process. So honestly you are better off researching your saleman, and store unless you really want to take the time to learn this industry. I learned it by building and modifying my own gear which helped me to learn whats important on the inside and how it relates to what we hear. Being in sales its really convienant to be able to play with different systems and equipment. I could honestly write a book just as others have done on how to design a system and what to look and listen for. Robert Harleys book is pretty darn good and will give you a good foundation for which to work from so Good luck and happy listening Kevin
