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?

Great system... Congratulations!

But if your system is perhaps mi-fi as you say mine is top hi-fi...😉

You cannot see it in the images... It must be listen to...

The reason why is because i tuned it and modified it ; it is not in my image because it is also inside some components, and to be not attacked by sarcasms i will not show what is over some component... Then i refuse that someone label my system low-fi or mid-fi because of price tag...

 

Dont take my half joke personal...

Welcome here... Your room is very hospitable and inviting by the way... I cannot say that for mine, i live in the basement of my new house with headphone and my last 500 books and two visiting  dogs 🎧....

 

 

A lot of window shoppers om AGON. Stand behind what you say and have. iWelcome you all to look at my mid-fi system.

 

 

the worlds of esoterica…be they fly fishing, gun dogs, wooden boats, antique salmon trolling plugs, large format camera, aeroplanes…. audio are chock a block full of the complete range of humanity…. sinner to saint, humble to raging egotist…Fly fishing is no exception…. the trophies evident on Christmas Island, Patagonia, NZ, Kamchatka….. the travel $$$ is mid fi or better…..

My approach is to seek out and be sought out by people i enjoy as we transit our short time on this rock…

@bslon is one such…. might that i one day help others as he has done…..

Well, I love music and Audio. Many people on this forum have luxury homes along with very expensive, very nice systems. For some of us, this is the other side of life we normally do not see. It takes courage for the average Joe who lives in a small apartment or town home to show off a system it took years to save for that amounts to pocket change for many people who are on this forum. I had to think twice about it. I am highly out classed here with my system, though, I am very happy with it. I have DYI speakers because I like doing it and can make them challenge speakers 3x what I have in them. It helps with the budget too. It can be a bit overwhelming to imagine 50K speakers and 40K or more of electronics and a 10 -20k turntable. Not to mention cables that cost twice of my whole system! I had someone make a challenge daring me to show what I had. He wanted me to prove I had something. Was a snob. I left up the picture and others were nice to me. This is really not a place for me to show off, or keep up with the Jones, because I cannot  i am here to learn new things, discover new technology, and enjoy discussion from many intelligent people that know more than myself. I share what I have learned over 50 years in audio. This is what it is for me. Sharing and fellowship.

I read as far as Toddsyr's instructions. Then followed the instructions.

The reason, and the only reason I haven't done it before, is that AG make it ridiculously difficult to find the place to do it! Before looking at toddsyr's post, I went to the LOGICAL place to find it, under one's profile - are you listening moderators? The method you've created here is maddness and not logical at all. It's like you're hiding it and actually DON'T want us to do it! Crazy!

Put an obvious link under our profile info, and not bury it somewhere illogical where no-one would look!

I am not a noob with computers, quite the opposite, and I used to build computers and websites for a living, so I have some experience, but where and how it's hidden is ridiculous.

Many MANY people are having the very same issue fiding the place, like eryoung2k above. And, Why MUST we post a photo of our sysytem?? WHY is that a requirement?

@daveteauk 

While for a handful of people this seems to have caused a problem, for a majority of us it took no time to figure out.  I am guessing that the problem is that you have never bought or sold anything on A'gon so never saw your username and drop down menu on the Audiogon Buy and Sell High End Gear page.  To be honest I don't why Audiogon moderators would be motivated to change the current situation to please those who have not supported the website with their business.  Noting that the cost of selling gear here has gone up.

Not sure why you think posting your system is a requirement, of course it's not.
