Title: New to Hi-Fi and the forum
Post by: Steve_Rynn on November 01, 2010, 09:41:03 PM: I just picked up a set of speakers and receiver from Vintage Hi-Fi this weekend to go with my new turntable and Tom recommended that I stop by and say hello.

I am completely new to all of this and hopefully I will get to meet some of you around the store / on here and begin learning at least a fraction of what I may need to know.

I am still learning too, but I'm enjoying the adventure.

I got the Klipsch KSB 3.1s and a Sherwood RX-4105 from Tom and paired them with a music hall mmf2.2 and musical fidelity x-lps (& x-psu) phono preamp.

Kingman - I enjoy almost any kind of music. In terms of most frequent: "classic" jazz (Bill Evans, Cannonball, Brubeck, Miles, Coltrane etc), classic rock (Stones, CSNY, Who, Zeppelin), some modern rock (Chili Peppers, Sufjan Stevens, Bon Iver, Vampire Weekend, Black Keys) and just recently some more bluegrass / country rock too (The Wiyos, Ryan Bingham, Avett Brothers).

Any suggestions on some LP's to check out?

Sunny - Sweet! I won a prize on my first day!

F1 - If you are offering me a prize for my second day, I gladly accept some MIT cables. Just let me know when to pick them up and I'll buy you a case of beer or a bottle of single malt. :) That is about an even trade right?

Post by: SunnyDaze on November 02, 2010, 09:04:57 PM: Not so much a prize as what I actually owe you.

Post by: Steve_Rynn on November 02, 2010, 09:22:11 PM: I know - but it was a nice segue into trying to get some free cables from F1
