| Introduction | I am a 44(45 Nov. 26th) happily married father of two wonderful boys, aged 12 and 15. My 'Interests' can be found above. Mostly I enjoy hanging out with my wife and kids, watching movies or our favorite shows, attending soccer matches, and, as of recent-Track Meets, eating too much ice cream and drawing/writing/using Apple Products, usually all while listening to music and taking pictures. I have a nice, yet classic Adcom Amp and Pre-Amp, with Yamaha CD Player and Technics Turntable, currently playing through Paradigm Monitor 9's and a decent Denon AVR, PS3 plays the DVDs and BluRays and Netflix, Yamaha CD Changer for music, all fed through a pair of classic Paradigm Monitor 9's, a Bose center channel and a pair of Bose 161 rears. at unGodly loud volumes. I sometimes switch components/speakers and stuff, just for kicks. Oh, the TV. It is a Samsung "touch of color" LCD, 52", model 700 or something. |
