Hi folks & mods,
I'm a long-time dormant hifi enthusiast and only started getting decent gear last year. Before this I've been more of a headfi guy and got into the habit about 4 years ago.
I grew up in a house that I shared with the legendary Polk Audio SRS 1.2 TLs driven by Carver 1000W monoblocks. It was a magical time, I regularly had orchestra symphonies blaring away and rock concerts rocking the house at insanely high dBs - walls of sound with 17" passive subwoofer propelled bass, 8 woofer midrange and 4 titanium domed tweeters per side.
One I struck it out on my own, I was only going to spend on computers first and so it is only 20 years later that I dare to delve into the money sucking black hole that is hifi, having already been dragged into the headfi black hole.
But I'm here now and working on my hifi setup with a pair of fantastic Elac UB5, powered by an Onkyo A-9010 or an Audio-gd Precision 1 - fed by an Audio-gd DAC-19. It is quite good, if I say so myself but I've heard what's out there and hopefully will get to my personal hifi nirvana at some point.
I'm almost there with my headfi setup - Audeze LCD 3 driven by Cayin IHA-6 and fed by the Audio-gd DAC-19 too.
Cheers!
