56.....been in love with stereo equipment since 1972. Had a friend that used to work at a high end stereo shop back in the seventies. Any of you guys remember stand alone stereo stores? I used to drool over the Mcintosh and Crown pieces on display. Now after career and kids I have been getting back into it. Still have some of my old stuff left, wish I had saved more of it. Very addictive hobby.
