Hello from Saint Louis

Hey everyone,

I've been "lurking" on AK for a number of months now, and I've learned so much from this community! Thanks to the Audiokarma administrators and audio gurus--this site is a priceless resource.

I'm a grad student living in Saint Louis right now, though I'm originally from eastern Ohio (near Steubenville or Wheeling, WV). I'm a life-long lover of vinyl, but when I heard how good a record could sound through a vintage Marantz receiver everything changed! I've found, especially with jazz and with well-recorded vocals, that there's no comparison to the clarity and warmth of this vintage sound...but you guys already know that!

I'm currently using a clean and beautiful Marantz 2226 to power some KLH Model Sixes. I'm still using a JVC AL-A158 TT, but I'm hoping to upgrade soon. I'd also really like to eventually get into tube amps, but that may be a ways off in the distance...

I'm looking forward to joining the discussion on AK. Thanks again.

Welcome to the forums, student in St Louis formerly of Ohio, where (presumably) you learned to love Guided By Voices. :thmbsp:
 
Dear all,

Thanks for such a warm welcome to AK!

Mystic: yes, with Ohio blood comes a love of Guided by Voices. There's nothing like listening to their low-fi records on the hi-fi.
 
Welcome to AK Echoes Myron, it's a great place to be! Yeah dude, get into that tube thang you mentioned. You wont regret it, especially if you're into jazz and vocals!
