Hey everyone,
Long-time lurker finally checking in. I’m Alex — civil rights lawyer by trade, audio enthusiast by obsession. I came up through the headphone world but eventually hit the ceiling there and made the leap to speakers once life gave me the space (and forgiveness from the neighbors).
Current setup includes a Cambridge CXN100 streamer, a rebuilt DS-99 amp, and a Willsenton tube integrated — powering a pair of big, beautiful speakers I call the Butch Towers. I’m in an old Virginia home with hardwood floors and big rooms, so getting the acoustics right has been its own adventure.
Lately I’ve been toying with building something a little wild — maybe dual-mono Class D, maybe something else entirely. I’m here to learn, share, and probably ask a few naïve questions about modules I don’t fully understand yet.
Looking forward to getting to know you all!

Thanks for the warm welcome, Dave—been reading your posts since long before I had the guts to solder anything that wasn’t already broken. Feels like a proper rite of passage saying hello here.
Hoping to learn from the real builders now that I’ve finally climbed out of the parts hoard and into the light.
