You may know him as Jaxwired (or Jax for short); but he's been Tom to me, for a long time.
He and I first became acquainted...when we both went from Dynaudio Contour S1.4s, to Special 25s; and hated them...lol.
Looking back at my emails...that's been just about 5 years or more! I won't tell you the number of emails we've exchanged in that time; because it would be downright embarrassing. But I guess it's a reflection, of the electronic age; that I've considered him a "friend"...even though we had never met.
That is...until this weekend. Tom and his boys, were vacationing about 30 minutes from where I live; and we had the chance to get together. Traffic made me late, and his boys were restless; so we only had the time for some wings, to gulped a few beers...and talk sh*t about all you guys :roflmao:
I don't go to audio shows, typically for 2 reasons: 1) I figure they're half-full, of a$$hole industry types...trying to push their agenda on me. And 2) the other half, are you weirdo audiophile types, lol. But Tom couldn't have been more cool.
The things we had in common, and the chemistry over them; was the same in person, as it has been online...lo these past 5 years.
He's one of the good guys, and he's given me hope...that you may not all be geeks after all Maybe I'll even go to RMAF. At the very least, now I know Tom and I can hang out...and make fun of the rest of you.
