  • I love music and audio :)

Hi, I’m new here. Longtime audiophile and music lover. I am getting into headphones and earphones. I love 2-channel hi-end Audio. I have recently decided to upgrade my 2-channel amp and preamplifier, so I found something I like and I am not allowed to reply or send that person a message that I want but the amplifier—strange. I hope that by posting here and introducing myself—I’ll get permission to reply to ads. I buy in the internet because my local hi end dealers are not much help—I don’t have a flashy car or clothes, even though I spend $5000 a year on Audio gear and new music. My system is about $30k in components I am currently listening to. I like a warmer sound, but only have a tube out DAC. I look forward to being able to do something on the forum.

p.s.  The security measures on this website are greater than that at any of my four different banks online.

    • Never go to a psychiatrist, adopt a straycat or dog. On the street they live only two years average.

Welcome.  After 3 posts you'll have full access to the site.

Would recommend avoiding used digital gear as the technology has been advancing so quickly.

 :scratch: Since digital changes so quickly, isn’t buying used better than buying new?? 
There’s some quite good digital gear out there that is within this ‘digital leap’ we’re expiriencing, but pre-owned and at a better price for any loss if one choose to upgrade again within a short timeframe.

  Welcome. Look for digital gear that cannot become obsolete. Factory and user upgradable gear is out there. Modular designs are best. Also like the hanging Amp.
