Hello AC!!
My name is Tim and I am from the only state that was created during the Civil War. Music has always been an important part of my life. The summer of 1976 I worked and saved my money so I could buy my first audio system, Harman/Kardon receiver, BIC turntable, and a pair of Advent speakers. A simple basic audio system, but holy cow! the sound was fantastic. In the early 1980s my system consisted of a Yamaha receiver, Technics turntable, and a pair of Design Acoustics D4 speakers. This plus other items were stolen out of my house by a so called "friend."
It wasn't until three years ago when my wife and I bought our first home, I decided that we would have an audio system. We cut cable and the audio system is our only source of entertainment. It's been a work in progress, and so far I am enjoying what I have put together. I have managed to build two systems, one for my wife and one for me. If Lord willing and the creek don't rise I am hoping to retire in two years. Wherever our retirement home is, both of us will have our own system to enjoy.
I am looking forward to participating and meeting new friends. I hope I have a little wit and some wisdom I can share and hopefully help someone who is in need of help. In case you didn't figure out where I am from, I am in WV.
Let's get the party started!!
