What's your profession? Age?

41 year-old USAF Officer; I fly F-15Es (no my hearing isn't shot..I wear ear protection to guard my audio investment!) An active audiophile since age 17. My combined audio/home theater system rings up at about $20K...but a major upgrade is in the works!

I'm a 37 year old building contractor and owner of Record Research Labs. (Hey, I had to put the college degree to work somewhere!)

Veterinarian, solo mixed (small and large animal) practice. 40.

I'm a 41 yr old Material Handling equipment distributor. Got into this a few years ago through HT, and have upgraded steadily to the point that 2 channel is what's driving this runaway bus. Looking at a couple of honest-to-goodness amps (either mono's or stereo) to biamp the mains. I'm at approx $12k, with more work before me. Lovin' life too.

I'm a electrical design engineer, almost 40 years old, married with 2 kids. My two channel audio system is about $20K if new. Have a separate home theatre system but that is not really audio. Have been in this hobby for over 20 years. Never knew or have any urge to learn to play any musical instruments but it might change soon. Recently the family bought a new piano for the 5 year old son. I have decided that I'll be learning to play the piano with my son (with professional tutor - of course).
