Shocks fer Jocks.... liking that one52 years ago I took electronics 101 in college, affectionately known as Shocks For Jocks. I was no jock but had always liked following stereo equipment,
and later owned a Radio Shack franchise where I could sell anything I wanted. Sold a zillion battery testers, simply voltage driven not all that useful meters. We all know you need to put a load on it.
Having worked in electronics, I'm like the mechanic with a beat up car..... most eras of my life, just about anybody else had a better stereo than I. Spent some time working with pro sound-reinforment equipment at a young age, so that's a bit like getting used to having a 400hp farm tractor around....
Audiophile addiction..... deep rabbit hole to go down. Wife's uncle dabbled a bit; because of him, a guy he worked with got the bug.... ended up basing the design of his new house primarily around upper-end Klipsch speakers.... the mortgage was due more to the sound system, than the house !
