Hello, the name is Ron. Have had an avid interest in high fidelity sound since the '70's. Took a step back in the mid '90's due to family and career priorities and because of the lack of available vinyl due to a hostile takeover attempt by CD's. Well the kids are gone, the job is stable and vinyl seems to be making a comeback. The turntable is back up on the shelf and playing sweet music once again. And now I can get good used equipment that I could only before dream of at a fraction of the original msrp. I now run 2 NAD receivers and a Realistic int. amp, a Dual TT and a Technics TT, driving 6 sets of speakers and lovin' the music. My wife thinks I'm crazy, but is a music lover herself and puts up with it. For years I was happy with what I had, now I want to try everything that I can afford. I used to read AudioReview all the time and stumbled across this site while doing some googling and am happy to be aboard.
