| About Me: |
Currently buidling a rig from medium fi components searching for higher ground |
| Interests (Hobbies, favorite activities, etc.): |
Music, dogs, yoga and Kayaking-I teach sea kayaking part time on the Potomac and enjoy white water. |
| What I do for a living: |
Special Educator |
| Headphone Inventory |
Grado 225i |
| Headphone Amp Inventory |
Schiit Asgard 2 |
| Source Inventory |
Onkyo 7030 dedicated CD player (Underrated entry level CD player which sounds pretty darn good); 8050 Onkyo Stereo Internet Receiver, Sonos Connect, Ipod 7th generation (miss my old 2nd gen which sounded a lot better-actually I think newer Ipod SQ kind of blows) |
| Other Audio Equipment |
Monitor RX-1 speakers (pretty awesome shelf speakers under $1,000) |
| Audio-Related Tweaks |
I enjoy finding good value in medium fi products that out perform their price points. Quality sound for every day music lovers. No $20,000 systems here! I don't think it is necessary to get quality sound. |
| Music Preferences |
Metal [many genres veering toward experimental & less accessible genres-experimental metal; prog, stoner/doom, post-proggy-droney whatever strikes my fancy, thrash, classic metal, proto metal, early classic PM, selective extreme metal (weird and dirty BM, old school DM, selective melodeth & some brutalish DM] Other guitar oriented music: punk, noise rock and hardcore, many varieties of rock, psychadelic, indie, singer songwriters, folk, blues. Some classical, symphonic soundtracks, ambient, new age |
| Interests (non-headphone) |
WW kayaking! |
