Hello- Just joined AC. I'm active on a couple other message boards. I'm primarily interested in vintage audio equipment; Acoustic Research, various stereo receivers from late 70's and early 80's. I have purchased a few items from the later generation stereo gear such as Krell, Llano and Emotiva. I primarily listen to two-channel systems. I have rehabbed around a dozen speakers- mostly foam surround replacements and just one or two recaps of crossovers. At present I'm working on reducing speaker collection to focus on larger Acoustic Research speakers- AR-9, AR-9LSi and even AR-MGC-1. I am attempting to optimize my components without taking out a second mortgage on the house. I enjoy reading other's audio experiences and occasionally share my personal experiences with my equipment. I hope to continue learning about gear and improvements I can make. Thanks. -Jim
