Having just joined, I suppose I should say a few words by way of introducing myself.
I've been an audio tinkerer since the late 1970s when I built a system from the ground up. I haven't repeated that since my original build was lost in a house fire. Of course that doesn't mean I don't love DIY electronics.
I spent most of my professional career in electronics ranging from Pro-Audio for a couple of years, then Two Way Radio for a few years. But the bulk of my time was spent servicing Office Automation and Computers. I did a stint as the National Service Administrator for the computer division of a large company and even got to play with robotics for a while. It's been an interesting 30 years.
These days I'm mostly retired and have been messing around with the newer Class D Mini-Amps from China and reworking mid-price speakers. My friends will call it an obsession but I call it fun. I like to take a small system and see just how far I can push it.
Hoping for some interesting conversations....

Douglas. It is sad to hear that you lost your gear. I was hoping you'd join in in the other thread but now I understand. Welcome to DIY 🙂
I suppose that now I've found you in the welcome thread, I can bid you a more official welcome 😀
Hopefully the conversations have suited you so far. I know I've enjoyed them.

It's been ... ummmm... interesting?
Not quite what I expected, but nothing ever is.
So far so good!
