Resident Psycho
While surfing through pics on my PC, I came across a bunch of cool pics - confirming that I've been insane for nearly 3 decades now. Happy to elaborate on any of the photos if you guys want to know more . . .
Thanks Mike. When I was younger and more ambitious, it was nothing to work a 60 hour week and then spend the weekend cutting holes in the walls to fab up whatever I dreamed up. My home in North Little Rock (Jacksonville) is the one with the paneling on the walls. Those are 18" CV woofers in BIG vented enclosures that were mounted in the attic.Very nice looking setups Tony. It looks like you can really rock the house. My addiction started in 1971 after saving for a year.
If memory serves, I had five MC2300s at that time. The bottom two are traditional silver/black amps and they were strapped to my Altecs. The top amp was an early 1Y unit with a super rare gold/black face. In this photo, it may have been running the 18" CVs. Note the date on the photo.Excellent early adopter photos. You grew some serious and permanent addictions later. Love the triple MC2300 stack. Move over dead heads. When do we get your car system pics?
Still have 'em. They're in the new office in the new home here. 18" Rockford Fosgate HX2s with Fs in the low 20s ...Wow you've had some great looking set ups over the years and I'm betting it was a lot of fun to. I said WTF out loud when I saw the one of your office with the dual 18'' subs
Now I feel completely normal using a pair of ads 1530's for my computer monitors.
Wow and here I think just one 18'' sub is overpowering; I can't imagine 2 in an office spaceAre those the subs that the MC2500 lost out to the D1200?Still have 'em. They're in the new office in the new home here. 18" Rockford Fosgate HX2s with Fs in the low 20s ...
We built the enclosures with easily swapped ports. I believe the ports in there tune to 28Hz. The others were going to be for 22Hz but I never built them.
What?Can you still hear?
What is the vertical mixer-looking thingy with sliders and many knobs in OfficeGear2.JPG in your first post?
I sure enjoy it!Tony - a most impressive collection of gear and installations. Nothing says ‘overkill’ better than your office system! I bet it’s ‘just enough’ !

IIRC, I had two more then as well. Somewhere in that time frame I also had an MC2500 but I'm not sure exactly when.Very impressive. Nothing says step back like a stack of 2300's. Well done.
Nothing succeeds like excess.I sure enjoy it!
