| He spent his life building a $1 million stereo. The real cost was unfathomable. very cool how he made it a lifelong passion and process always ironic, like so many things in life, you have the means, you make the effort, but then there is only a limited window to really enjoy the fruits of the labor | |
| Favorite tracks (jazz pop soul) you use to test bass response and subwoofer integration two that are well known standards are mango drive by rhythm & sound limit to your love by james blake | |
