Actually, I try not to say y'all very much! 
I'm Mike Nassour, a diehard lover of the Original Large Advents, especially when run in pairs. Hey, what can I say, they just sound great to my 65 year-old ears!
Currently, I'm running a Dual CS 606 through an elderly Mitsubishi R25. Other items of note around the house include a pair of smaller Original Advents, a Sherwood S7900A, a recently restored Teac A2300SD reel to reel, and I'm on the lookout for a nice Dual 1229 to round out a system in a larger house we're moving into this summer.
I was introduced to high fidelity by the father of my best friend in high school, back in 1969. Before that, audio in my family's house was a Magnavox console, which included a color TV! I remember his AR speakers, Sansui receiver and Dual 1019 like it was yesterday. In his home, I listened seriously to a classical composition for the first time, Gustav Holst's The Planets.
I will never forget the gift that gentleman gave me, the love of music and the understanding of the equipment required to accurately reproduce it. It's been part of my life for more than 50 years now, and I can't imagine a world without it.
Thanks for the admins for the time, the place, and their work. I look forward to seeing everyone here on the boards!
