What do/did you do for a living?

Typo: Quad 2905s

I do systems engineering for deep space missions. I won’t be getting those $100,000 speakers without a lucky lottery ticket. Fortunately, there are a lot of good speakers available for under $5000, especially if you’re willing to buy used!

Backup Power Battery Sales for the past 20 years and still going.   Got in to car audio as a youth, then focused on home theater, and now finally two channel.   Love the hobby!!!

I trained as a singer and conductor of choirs and orchestras, and have spent about 2/3 of my career so far in church ministry and about 1/3 of my career in higher education as a music professor. Not being in a lucrative field has taught me the fun and adventure of improving my system as inexpensively as possible. The majority of my gear was purchased used (sometimes as much as 20 years old when I bought it), but it sounds wonderful to my ears. 

i worked 40 1/2 years for the USAs 1st Railroad. i was in charge of inspection & maintenance of 300 miles of track.
