I'm new to Audio Circle and happy to be here. I've been an audiophile since my college days in the early 70s, spending way too much money on LPs and equipment, always chasing a more musical experience. Over the years, I've owned just about every brand of tube gear there is (always a fan of that technology) and every kind of speaker design, from horns to dynamic drivers to electrostats to planars. Also, of course, CD players, headphones, and all the associated accessories and tweaks. I'm an omnivore when it comes to music, and I am in fact a professional musician myself. So I'm interested in everything everyone has to say.
