HOW DID YOU END UP WITH YOUR DREAM SYSTEM?

@bassbuyer well said. Hans is as ocd about sound as I am. A match made in heaven. I listen as much as I can to my system. But I stopped listening in morning because it was making me late to work. lol. I’m excited to be a part of company that brought me to the best sound I have ever had in my life. It’s a beautiful thing. Going to audio shows are nit work for me. They are vacation listening sessions. I spend time now trying to find music.  Tweaking a little and just happy listening to my favorite stuff 

@ghdprentice same kind of thing with me.  I wanted an organic sound but with loads of detail, great dimensionality and excellent image placement. Also I like silky like vapor type airy treble. All of these things in one system can be hard be hard to do and still have balance.  I have managed to achieve this. 

It started back in 1985, Okinawa, Japan. I purchased a pair of JBL 4312s(I think). I  continued to trade/buy components. I'm happy with my system,  because I have learned that no component is perfect, trust my wife’s ears, and trust my own ears.

Spoiled myself in the early seventies with top gear, Mc275s, JBL 250s then professional school cut into it until early eighties, did it again then divorce and kids made it impractical. Got them through college and ’08 got in the way. Finally in 2014 things opened up and saw a rabbit hole. Actually saw that Jim Smith lived about 45 minutes away so picked his brain a few times at his home. Between his advice and a few others, (Almarg rest his soul), came up with a pretty good system, tube based with high efficiency speakers. Which is how I was introduced to noise in the electricity. Ended up with balanced power throughout, then a balanced audio signal throughout. I feel like I’ve been blessed by God every time I sit down to it. All in all we are a very foutunate group and good listening to all. Good thread

@ricred1 glad we were able to assist you with some of our cabling.  Also thank you for sharing your journey.  Most think I’m in the business of audio for money.  I have my own company for 23 years. I don’t do it for that.  I do it so that I can help folks get there.  That’s why we give free trials. I’m glad that you have found your way to the great system you have. I’m glad that Infigo Audio cables are a part of it.  Thank you.
