My name is Jack,
My original interest in audio was around 1960 while in high school. With almost no money, no one to share my interest, I somehow scrounged together two ElectroVoice LS8’s and a pair of University horn tweeters. Probably from a rummage sale. I built a pair of enclosures from 3/4” plywood and I was hooked.
Through the years I’ve built an owned some good mid-fi stuff including Scott Kits, JBL driver Apollo and Lancer 99 speaker builds, Dynakit Stereo 70, moving coil cartridges, etc. I gave away my turntable, cartridge, NAD equipment and Energy Reference Connoisseur’s several years ago. I’ve been watching TV with a SONOS system since, but missing good music.
I stumbled upon Danny’s YouTube channel about a year ago, and have been learning why many speaker systems I built had problems and shortcomings. Anyway, I’m getting the urge to build some speakers and get some decent electronics to put together a streaming setup. Probably start with X-LS, or X-SLS Encores, and go from there.
Glad to have so much support and resources this time around
