New to the Audiophile tag, but working on my knowledge
« on: June 19, 2011, 03:45:03 PM »
Hello everyone. Im new to the forums but not new to Vintage HiFi, thanks to my father. At the moment my system in MIA due to past conflicts with roommates (who will never touch my audio set up again) but I am working on posting pictures of my Energy C5s that need repair. Hopefully I can get some help from some of you guys and I can get these babies working like brand new.  :D

Ill keep postin!

Yes, Welcome.
I wish my father was into vintage hi-fi.
All the stuff I have now I got myself.

My roommate and I were already on less than diplomatic terms when he ruined my Grado Gold. After that, he wasn't allowed anywhere near anything I own. Plus I stuck him with 6 months worth of cable, phone and internet bills.

Welcome to he madhouse.

Welcome to the forum!!   It is a great hobby to share with your Father.   My son and I spend a lot of quality time together because of this hobby.   As a Father of a teenager, nothing beats spending time with your child.

Welcome homie... My dad was the one who got me into audio as well...
I am confident that an SL-1200 is capable of outperforming turntables of much higher expense with minor modification.
