Who R U?


A while back Garfish mentioned he lked the idea of getting to know some of us better.As no one has started a thread like this before I will take the plunge.I have been involved in and read many heated exchanges here in AudioGon.I hope no one attacks me for this thread saying "who cares about you,this is audio" Anyway,Im 45 and live in W.N.Y.I have never been married but have a music loving 11 year old daughter who lives with me.I have been a nurse for 20 years.Before that I was a Navy Corpsman for several years.I recently became engaged (first time) to a beautiful 30 year old music loving woman.At my age a 30 year old is a keeper and I have never been happier!! My other interests??Im into vinyl,who has time for anything else??

I'm a 20 yr old chemistry major at Penn. State University. I'm an active publishing researcher in analytical electrochemistry at PSU. Besides research, I'm also into the DIY audio biz. (As much as I love Mr. Pass's charity in providing projects, I wish he'd get that new penultimate amp out!) I started out with my first high end piece when I was about 15, and ever since it has become a driving passion in my life. If I had never gotten into the high end, I don't think I'd have the great appreciation for classical and jazz that I do now. Now if you'll please pardon me, I've got to go get a couple more jobs to support this hobby.
What the heck... I'm 34, tomorrow, and live and work in Tampa, Florida. I am originally from Easton, Pa. but ended up in Florida because of the weather. I sold my snow skis and never looked back. I am married and have one child, Courtney, who is 15 months and it the best thing that has ever happened to me. I am a personal injury attorney and have been practicing for 6 years. I am somewhat a newcomer to high end audio as I became interested about 4 years ago. My wife works for a Dentist who has a really nice dedicated home theater and I got turned on at one of the x-mas parties. I enjoy jazz, rock, and blues. My favorites are Van Morrison and Dire Straits. I also enjoy all finely recorded material. I really enjoy this hobby and like to log onto this site daily. I do not post too often but enjoy reading other members posts. I think I have truly gained alot of knowledge from this site and the regular members. My other activities include golf which I have been playing forever and lifting weights. Since the birth of my child my golf game has suffered and I am not as dedicated in the gym, but I am home more and therefore can listen to my music and my growing system.
Welcome Marcy! Why dont you post more often? Tell us a little about your system.Tubes? S.S.? Analog? Digital? By the way,I got a blazing hot cup of coffee at Micky-Dees the other day and it burned my tongue.Can you get me a couple million?
My system consists of all solid state stuff: Aragon amps, EAD thearermaster pre/pro, B&W N804's, Sony 7000 dvd/cd transport (soon to be RA CD55), Stealth cables. I have actually posted a little more recently. I usually do my audiogon surfing at work so my time is limited. David: As far as the coffee burn; I have a special doctor I would like you to see, and then we'll talk. Marc
I'm a 28 year old Corp. HeadHunter. Living in Phoenix, AZ. now for the last 3 years. But Detroit we orginal home. I'm newly single since the new Pass Aleph 2 mono blocks, just pissed the girlfriend off. HeHe, I guess she wanted a ring. I have been a music lover for a very long time in and out of the recording studio with bands when I was younger but I really only started becoming an Audio nut about 5 years ago when I bought my first Harmon Kardon system and I thought it was the best!! Then I saw Mirage speakers and thought they were the best. Boy did my eyes need opening. Nice hearing from all of you.
