Itscoffeetime 10 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Hello Audiophiles, Just thought I'd say g'day and introduce myself. I'm an early 30's business owner that has now fallen in love with coming back home after a long day at work and listening to some vinyl. I've been growing my vinyl collection for about 8 years and am now slowly upgrading different aspects of my set up as I spend more and more time on this amazing site. Currently listening to Billy Joel, Muddy Waters and Lee Oskar on high rotation. Looking forward to learning much more! 5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I started my collection in the 60s and it now fills a room and includes 45s and 78s as well as 33 rpm LPs. I used to come home from work and enjoy it, but have now retired, and it is a great advantage having such a wonderful way to enjoy music whenever I feel like it. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I can imagine my life becoming that way over the next 30 years (hopefully!) retiring to a nice collection and some toys would be a beautiful thing after years of hard work.

Quick coffees are the new Nespresso but serious coffee is a Gaggia Classic black of course 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't have a home espresso machine at the moment. Although with all this extra time at home at the moment I have really been enjoying putting on a record while I brew some V60 pour over. My speakers face my kitchen - my favourite place in my apartment! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So nice seeing how active and passionate the classified format is in this forum. Wish I knew how good audio could be sooner! My system is quite frugal and incomplete at the moment but I will make sure to post it up soon! Need a TT upgrade asap. Only using a project essential with limitations of a cartridge upgrade which is a bummer but I am looking forward to picking up something used in the forum eventually!
