Thank you for taking the time to read and most of all understand my post. My title refers only to my 'pretending' to be an 'audiophile'. It seems that many on the 'Gon" put a lot of effort to auditioning and matching components before purchasing. What I have done is buy what I thought were bargains, throw them together in an effort to get the most out of my vinyl. I have no allegiance to a particular brand of equipment, only to MUSIC with a prefrence for vinyl because I can obtain it so cheaply and I enjoy the hunt and the discoveries.
I have been thinking lately that if I enjoy my current system, haphazardly thrown together, what if I were to put some thought into putting a system together that optomises my penchant for vinyl? I fully realise that my knowledge and understanding of Hi Fi is at best minimal. I have McIntosh because it's what I've found on the cheap. I have not seen Jeff Rowland components at yard sales although I once saw a Conrad Johnson phono preamp but I did not know at the tme what it was and neither did the woman selling it.
I'm new to this and I 'm eager to learn as much as possible. At any rate it's ultimately the music that keeps me together. Thanks jes45@aol.com!
