    Hello from Maryland

    Hey hello, I'm new to the forum but have been around for awhile (nearing 70). I'm trying to get back into listening higher end audio. I started when I was in the army in Europe back in the 70s and 80s but lost track when career priorities and children came along. I sold my vintage stuff years ago so I will be looking for new gear. Looking forward to the discussions...

    Regards,

    Tony
