Hello all,I am new here and after lurking for several days,I am amazed at the amount of information and overall friendly vibes I have found here.As for me,I am a recently medically retired Army helicopter mechanic with enough time on my hands now to listen to music most of the day.I am new to the audiophile headphone ownership/discussion thing so I hope to learn much while enjoying all the contributions here.That said,on to the thread subject.I am old enough to remember when the first Hi-Fi on the market was mono and were all tubes.However,my first quality stereo was mostly a hand-me-down from my Dad.It consisted of an Eico tube amp,a Garrard turntable,and a pair of Dynaco A-25 speakers.Had to buy the speakers because my Dad,while he was upgrading to a new solid-state amp and Dual turntable,kept his Acoustic Research 2a speakers for himself.My headphones that came later were,to the best of my bad memory,made by Koss and I cannot remember the model.I do however,remember many late night listening sessions wearing those headphones and listening to the new,at that time,early Pink Floyd albums.Anyhow,I just wanted to break the ice somehow and I hope to learn much in my future time here.
