I had to repost this because we had a troll destroy our discussion. Please share. Would love to hear you stories.
YOUR AUDIOPHILE JOURNEY WHEN DID IT START AND HOW DID YOU GET TO YOUR DREAM SYSTEM?
I had to create this post so people can share how they got here. I started mines with a record player that my uncle gave me and Alexander O’Neal album. I would get jam boxes back in the day. Then at 30 I got a def tech system at best buy and now I 22 years later I have an all Infigo Audio system with Gato speakers and 2 Rel 212se subs. I’m happy as all get out with my sound. It is my dream system not because of what it costs it is because I’m in love with how it sounds. What’s your story.

@ghdprentice love this story. Music is an escape. But it to is an amazing journey. I have owned def tech, classe, bowers and Wilkins. Ayon, sonus faber, revel, Vienna acoustics , Resonessence, Bryston, KR AUDIO, SOLUTION and Now my final system with Infigo Audio electronics , gato speakers and rel subwoofers. |
@fbgbill yes as we get older and slow down the money becomes available and the systems we can get allows us to get what we really want. |
@bigtwin @mikhailark great stories. Audio is life. |
Fellas we can go back to my other post. They allowed us to put it back up. There is a long story about Zuesman that I will share with you guys. He has changed name 7 or 8 times. He has been kicked off the forums 7 times for his behavior. Very internet dangerous. Seriously. Will do a long post soon about being careful with guy that post on audio forums. |
@jrwaudio cerwin Vega. Blast from the past. |
@frankmc195 looks like you had early synergy. Then found it again |
@oldaudiophile well I understand. The music was more important than the tuition. Yup we get drawn in. |
@waytoomuchstuff interesting. I’m a lawyer by trade. But I’m working in audio on the side. I’m not doing it for the money. I just enjoy it all helping, learning and listening. Reading your story you’ve had quite the journey. |
@mike4597 nice choices looks like you are almost done. |
@immatthewj when you start down the audio hole. It goes deeper and deeper. But it puts you in happy places. |
@jrwaudio i don’t know about the trade. But I appreciate the sharing. There are a lot of factors in that trade. |
@artemus_5 your story goes way back and runs deep. Us audiophiles are different. |
@brandan i understand I got lucky early. I got try without buying a lot of stuff early. It helped me. Me and my friends went on a 12 year equipment and cable run that saw us spending and trying a lotn I’m at the top of where I wanna be. I’m done. Just listening to music now. |
@g2the2nd great story. Looks like evolution over the years. |
