I can't believe I didn't know about this site until this morning, it's too cool.
I have been building stereo gear of all sorts since about 1970 (when I was 7) and am still doing it. My current projects are a pre/power amp using just directly heated triodes, the old 4 pin type from the 20's and 30's. Hard to find tubes but it's all part of the fun. I currently have on my workbench for repairs or upgrades, Music Fidelity M1 DAC, Music Reference RM5 preamp, Incanto DAC and a McIntosh MVP861 SACD-DVD-CD-45-78 player.
Looking forward to contributing to the site any way I can.
Cheers
Paul
