46, Senior Software Engineer and Project Manager

53, outside of the house I am a litigation attorney. At home I am butler, porter, handyman, and sometimes floor mat.

57 year old attorney. 80K plus system. Took about 11 years to get to where it is today. More work to be done.

Great thread idea, a 13 yr old thread is a beautiful thing! I'm 47, an electrician living outside of Vancouver Canada. My current 2 channel rig would retail for 11K, and the theater about 10K, thought I paid much less for both.

I restarted the 2 channel system in earnest with a used pair of speakers that go for 6K new, buying some bargain electronics to run them, big mistake. It took me a good while to sort that out with gear that had good synergy and I finally love those speakers. Thanks Parasound.

The system is about 50 k now & growing. Love good: Rock / Blues & occasional Jazz & also time for some Clasical when in the mood. 5k Music library most cd/DVD/blue ray. Return to vinyl & getting this side of the collection sorted. As analogue as possible...
