Maybe this is the winter you build something!


Hey it's me. Just reminding you to please consider building something this winter.  From a new power cable to speakers, maybe new acoustic panels you DIY or even speakers or a sweet preamp kit.

You'll have a lot of fun, and learn a ton.

It's weird to me that when I suggest Audiophiles might enjoy building stuff themselves I get flack.  "I don't like that! Stop promoting DIY! It will never be as good!"

Whatever. I think building is fun and educational.

I used to take the owner's Chrysler Imperial to pick up donuts for break time at Vermont Mattress Company, Burlington, VT. 440 with push button shifters on the dash board.

Incredible. "Who want's to go for donuts"? Me, Me, Me

@elliottbnewcombjr nothing like a big block. Love it when he comes home for us to work on his pride and joy. This has the pistol grip 4 speed. Just that hideous lime green has got to go. 
 

Great memories eh. 

Promoting DIY is great, but please try to understand that some people (me being one of them!) just do not like DIY/building things and that does not make us wrong, just different. What's right for one person is not necessarily right for everybody.

larsman,

 

 Understood, as I mentioned in my last post. Again, I have certain limitations such as being able to paint a decent picture. My brother, however, is unbelievably gifted, but don't ever ask him to frame the pictures that he paints, that would be my part of the job.

I've never not understood this. I just want MORE audiophiles to build, but that doesn't mean EVERY audiophile should build.  The only time I take a really strong opinion on this is to those who think NO audiophile should build. 

The more builders, the more knowledge, and the more fun I think. :)
