I initially joined in 2008 but I've not done this introduction part before.
Having owned both NuForce and Odyssey gear, I spent some time lurking around those forums, but posting very little.
Currently curious about open baffle speakers, particularly Spatial Audio, so I hope to become more informed and possibly even get to hear a set of the new Sapphire line, covid permitting.
Historically, I've been a part time musician since I was 15. I first heard "high end audio" when I was about 30. It blew my mind and I've never recovered.
From about '97 thru '08 I was second banana at a shop called Sound Images in Westport, MA. We had great gear and I hated to see it go, but expanding internet competition and the recessive economy forced us to pull the plug.
Currently I have Gallo Reference 3.1 speakers, a pair of JL Audio e110 subs, Cary SLI-80, Marantz SA KI Ruby, VPI HW 19 Jr, ASR mini basis exclusive phono stage, and all Nordost cabling.
