Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile?


Many of you ask others to advise you, but the answer to so many questions is system dependent.  Why don’t you post your system on your profile prior to requesting help?

Measurements? And exactly how would one do that? With a multimeter? A la ASR style of measuring the current coming into and then out of the power cable while it's not actually plugged into anything? Do I post a pink panther next to the equipment I list?

Or do you mean measurements like my wife is 36D-29-32?

LOL.

(All in good fun. 😉)

I’m not on here all that much anyhow.

That was post 1881 since 2018. That’s a lot of contributing to this forum, but you do seem a bit frustrated.

Personally, I don’t expect much and my expectations are usually exceeded. I agree many people coming from different places and I would say that the Internet encourages less civil conversation. That said, most members are civil and try to contribute, but to me, posting your system before asking, or answering a question is part of contributing and being civil.

Many of us spent years working hard and making the most of what resources we had.  Some with 500K+ systems probably have had to drive old subcompact cars at one time and had to do what they could to listen to recorded music.  Others run large companies and like the challenge of putting together a great system at a lower price point.  All of the systems are a challenge.

Because computer illiterates like myself have no clue how...? 

Yes I know I am the only one and I have no fear admitting it. 

Because of this topic, I just stared at my profile for 10 minutes. I don't see anything that makes me think I can add pictures. 

Oh no.....!!!

Another "Why don't you post pics of your system?" thread.

There are members that offer valuable information/advice WITHOUT system pics.

I could care less if a member has their setup in their profile.

 

Don't feel bad Johnfritter. I've been told to do it through my profile too but I find nothing there to do it with. The farthest I've gotten is this:

Sign in to audiogon.com

Near the top it will show:

Categories   Brands   Browse   Sell   Explore   Learn   Insider

Click on Explore.

Click on Virtual Systems

Then near the top it shows:

Systems    Tags   Room Size   Comments   Create System

Click on Create System

Then type in whatever you want to name in your system.

Then click GET STARTED

After I do that I get a red bar near the top that says "User can't be blank" even though I typed something in the previous box. Maybe you will have better luck than me. It might be because I'm using Firefox as a browser. I ripped out Microsoft Edge months ago to regain over 30 gigs of hard drive space. Oh well.
