Cheers,

Total amateur/newb here. No real electronics background or prior experience. I just love music and sound. Never have had the money for high end audio products but dream big so here I am. Yes, I am aware that I won't save any money in the long run by doing this myself. Anyway, I just built my first tube kit and working on some single drivers to get started. I am having a lot of fun researching, tweaking and listening. Priceless. Lots to learn here. Any DIYers in North TX? Any meetups or events? I need all the help I can get.

Thanks to all who share their experience, ideas and opinions here.

Welcome to the forum Mr. Tension.... the only reason you don't save money (at least if headed in the direction you seem headed (Tubes plus single drivers), is that it is addictive and hard to stop building projects
