Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections): all things considered Rock'n' Roll w/ some exceptions, jazz, blues, folk, blue grass, country,a lot of a lot
System Goals/Comments: I would like a tube pre-amp. a cd recorder, a cd player which plays cd-rws, I don't know, maybe I should just buy a dvd player instead, better speakers, I will build them myself.
System Strengths: The Harmon Kardon. The age of it, I believe most of my equipment was built in some of the best years of stereos. IT is crisp and
clear, sometimes too much so. IT is mine
System Weaknesses: Yamaha C-40, I may be a good machine, but the sound is too transparent, needs more depth. I bought it for the price, and I needed a pre-amp for my HK
Video/HT System: Integrated
TV/Projector: RCA XL-100 19"
Processor/Receiver/Amplifiers: same as above, the HK
Speakers (Center, Surrounds, Sub): same as above
Sources (DVD/VCR): 1993 Magnavox 4-head HQ HI-FI VHS
Comments on HT System: it works
Other Interests/Hobbies/Occupation: I like to build, and refurbish speakers work on stereos, own autos(more a dream than reality, I do have 2 '87 VW's though)work on the cars. I work at a collision repair shop use the inernet to find ouy info. on my other hobbies, listen to a lot of music
