Room Comments/Treatments: | I probably have too small a room but I wanted floorstanders. It sounds good to me so I don't have a problem with it. |
Music Preferences and Comments: | |
Music Used (Genre/Selections): | Classic Rock/Jimi, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Traffic, Allman Brothers Blues, Jazz, Classical...still getting into these and don't know enough to comment on particular faves |
System Goals/Comments: | The goal is to keep the system fairly simple with continual upgrades to better components. I would also like to add a quality cd player, a reel to reel player, and a tuner. I am thoroughly enjoying the system as is though, especially after the addition of the Marantz. It replaced a consumer-grade Pioneer and the difference in the phono's is pretty amazing. Well worth it and it was cheap. |
System Strengths: | Put together cheaply. Components seem very versatile/forgiving. Sound. |
System Weaknesses: | I would always like to be able to spend more or get something newer. Interconnects and cables need to be addressed at some point. No tuner...yet. I need to get a cd player too but I'll wait until the format war settles. Plus, I prefer vinyl. |
Video/HT System: Integrated | |
Other Interests/Hobbies/Occupation: | I play softball and Fantasy Sports (baseball and football), any University of Oklahoma athletics, reading (Vonnegut is my fave)/ Account Executive for an IBM Business Partner in Oklahoma City, OK. Age 24. |
