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 don't always agree with Jcbtubes. But this time he is dead on. I couldn't agree with him more. I am referring to the charter member part. He sure got that one right.
Ya babeeeeeeeeee.
My name is Eric (21) and I'm from Waterloo Canada, which is about an hour away from Toronto. Currently in my third year of a Biotechnology program at University of Waterloo. Audiogon has done a world of good to help me get my system up and running. I finally realized that tubes was for me and decided to go for the Rogue Magnum Integrated :) Hopefully that works out for the best. In my spare time I like to Mountain Climb, sail, race mountain bikes and swim. I work for the Coast Guard in the summers doing Search and Rescue and run a website design firm with my brother. I really like the non sarcastic/condescending atmosphere on Audiogon, unlike other internet site forums... People here seem to be intelligent and truly experienced. Thanks everybody for making this site what it is. If you're ever around the Toronto area and want to talk audio, drop me an email.
Buckingham- Glad to see another younger member here(between you and me the old folks think they own the place, we need to set the record straight:) I am also a tubey sort of guy....well for the moment anyway(the exception would be an accuphase A50v), I just was never happy with the sound of solid state in my system, but now with a tube amp and a ss pre, it is great! Are you into vinyl by any chance? I find that all younger audiophiles are strictly digital(as is the case with me), I'll admit is sounds better but I can't afford it at the moment, between the gear and I would need all new software it would be difficult at the moment. Look forward to talking with you some more, enjoy your addiction!

Hi Tireguy, What do you considrer older folks? Blink once and you will be forty. Blink twice and you will be fifty. Me likes tubes too. Ah, but i was so much older then, I'm younger than that now. I enjoy your humor Tireguy but tire the guy who flaunts his youth. I look forward to your posts. Keep up the good fun.
