Newbie system

Description

It all started two years ago.

I started working after college and started to build my system, it replaced a cheap Sony integrated system.

I live in Chile were all the major brands i.e. Mark Levinson, Krell, etc. are available but at high prices, at least compared to the second hand market in the US.

I've been planning to upgrade, but slowly. I've realized that this is a hobby where upgrades are always wondering in your mind and where there will always be something better.

The system is located in my 23 x 13 x 9 room.

I enjoy it !!

That's great! And don't feel rushed to upgrade everything. I'm going on 7 years and it's been a slow process. But one that you have to force yourself to stop and listen to music.

When I started out I always got excited looking at upgrades. Now I don't like upgrading because I have to audition and break stuff in. I'd rather have it all set up and just listen.

You will learn a lot on audiogon - just checking out the discussions.

Good Luck,

Rob
