Hello. I live in Center City. I'm trying to become more knowledgeable about audio in order to keep improving my system. I have had lots of good results having equipment modified by a local audio technician, but I'm clueless when it comes to selecting equipment and accessories. At the moment I'm trying to figure out tube amps and speaker loads. I use vinyl and digital (redbook CD) sources; analog generally sounds better to me, even old worn out LPs. Digital can come close with a good DAC and a good recording, though there don't seem to be enough of the latter.
If the group is open, please let me know. I've got lots of room and could host, though my own system would probably seem a little underdeveloped at the moment except maybe for the Museatex Bidat, a Meitner designed DAC, recently upgraded by a former colleague of the designer.
Thanks
Bob
