Who R U?


A while back Garfish mentioned he lked the idea of getting to know some of us better.As no one has started a thread like this before I will take the plunge.I have been involved in and read many heated exchanges here in AudioGon.I hope no one attacks me for this thread saying "who cares about you,this is audio" Anyway,Im 45 and live in W.N.Y.I have never been married but have a music loving 11 year old daughter who lives with me.I have been a nurse for 20 years.Before that I was a Navy Corpsman for several years.I recently became engaged (first time) to a beautiful 30 year old music loving woman.At my age a 30 year old is a keeper and I have never been happier!! My other interests??Im into vinyl,who has time for anything else??

44 and getting younger. Been in to music since I was 5 years old. Really went over board with the music thing. I at one time owned 5 high end recording studios. And spent millions doing it. I loved the experience of making records and listening to music. I'm retired and I do what I love which is listening to records. I try and look back on the good memories I have of being apart of the record making process. Good times. Ya I spent to much to make my dreams a reality but if I was asked was it worth it. He'll ya. Long live music.

And always trying to climb to the next level. Where does it end. It doesn't.
45 year old with kids still in the house. Don't have too much time to listen to music - have the late at night sessions most of the time. I enjoy both the music and the sounds the gear makes. I have spent about 15 years now building my setup. I have serious slowed down my gear acquisition as my current setup does not have the gaping holes it did 15 years ago and costs for significant improvements are through the roof. MSRP would be about $40K for the setup. But I should really get a newer DAC. I'll start milling through the used stuff tomorrow. ;)
High there...oh oh sorry.
Hi there. I am a retired NYC C.O. of 21 years.I Served in the USAF in Germany. It was here that I was introduced to high end audio. I owned every piece in the Pioneer Spec series. (The auto-reverse on the 909 was a primo feature then.)
No less a lover of music today...my HPM100's are still with me. Check my cheap but sweet system in AUDIO Files,

Bondmanp - Phil Slepian, in central New Jersey. I work in financial services. I also serve as the meetings Chairman of the New Jersey Audio Society - njaudiosociety.com. My focus has always been on bang for the buck gear. I enjoy my modest systems more than many much more expensive ones. That's good, since I have two kids in college and one getting married soon, so I won't be doing any upgrades soon. I am a Jewish American, and observant, so I cannot attend many audio shows and events that take place on Saturdays. However, having the NJAS has made this a much less solitary hobby for me.
