Welcome - Introduce Yourself Here

Music? Just a little. Classic jazz and blues, country from the 20th century, classic rock/metal, punk, post punk/new wave, classical, bluegrass, Celtic (Scottish bagpipes), modern rock.

In the 90's I saw Dave Brubeck with his sons backed by the San Diego Symphony - best concert ever! I've seen Oingo Boingo twice, B-52's and Red Hot Chili Peppers (same concert) along with X-Fest that put on Ziggy Marley, the Cramps, They Might Be Giants and maybe some other bands but that's what I remember (91X radio station in San Diego put it on).

Love me some DLR era Van Halen, Led Zep, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd and similar. Used to sing in a church choir so like Haydn, Beethoven, Bach, etc. Depeche Mode, The Cure, The Cult. Lighter stuff from the 70's when I had a transistor radio, pop hits. Getting to hear more of Thin Lizzy which I never had anything of and like it. Always liked Brubeck, like Stan Getz, Cal Tjader, Paul Desmond and the like. Going further back Tommy Dorsey and others. Megadeth, Prong, Static-X, Testament.

Yeah, I'm all over the place except very little hip/hop or rap, opera. I do own some Ice Cube CD's, that was a phase. West Coast! :ROFLMAO:
 
Hello there I'm MaruMaru irl Melvin, a music enthousiast since I've been introduced to Jazz, rock and metal. But over the years I've been listening more to alternative and indie music. Two years ago I stumbled upon Record Store Day which was in 2018 during my trip to the grocery store. I got interested to see what all the people where digging for in the large crates. I bought two Jazz records and my Turntable a month later. Since then I've been cought by the virus and my audio system got a huge upgrade as well.

From a simple Bose ( I know... ;)) All-in-one to a
Amplifier: Advanced Acoustic X-i105
Speakers: Tannoy Revolution XT8F
Cables: Ogata interconnects
Turntable: Pro-ject Essential 3 ( my Thorens TD 160 died... So soon a brand new one)
Cd player: Sony CDP 497 ( It gets the job done :) )

Now I collect and listen to mostly indie records, I still listen to metal(core) and offcourse Jazz. :D which sound tremendously good one this setup!

Hello, glad to have discovered this forum! I am a music enthusiast for 30+ years. I started collecting vinyl as a kid, but CDs came out and I got away from it. I recently rediscovered this addiction and so here I am. Musical tastes are a little bit of everything from classical to classic, broadway to bluegrass, alt country to alternative, and much more.

Current setup - MoFi Studiodeck, Harman Kardon HK3490, Focal Chorus 706, and Hsu STF-2 sub.

I am thinking about going to Martin Logan - either 35XTi bookshelf or 40I towers (local vendor has a good deal). Thoughts?IMG_0436.jpeg

Always curious to know, how did you find us?
 
Let's save ourselves some trouble and just ban this one straight away, shall we?

Listen, sorry. It was in poor taste. I assumed the place was known as NAG and it was meant to be an attempt at humor, not intentionally off-putting. It's my mistake and I expect it doesn't accurately reflect my values. I'll start again and we'll see if we can't make this right.

@Indymisanthrope goteem...

Its all good - Go forth and prosper.
Make it so
err the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.
