Description

I engaged in a foolish thought. I truly believed that I could take a couple of years off from audio and live in a shared space with three roommates and be sane. This proved to be untrue. What you see is my best attempt to get something that possesses passable performance and integrates into an apartment home shared by four people.

This system has been evolving for about six years. I started with a dorm room system in college and have expanded since then. The only original pieces are the interconnects and CD player.

I hope you enjoy browsing through this and I would love to hear any questions or comments you may have.

Cheers,

Chuckie

How long before a roommate's guest uses one of your SF Concertinos as a coaster?
