A warm 'hello!!' to everyone on avsa..my new home for, a very long time I suspect.
My name is Michael, and I'm new...and inexperienced... a combination not unlike some governments..
My new found interests are : Fostex full range drivers, diy horns and the appropriate pre/post tube amp kits..
First off...I'm from Durban, studied biochemistry at UND with two degrees, I can also solder and woodwork..!!
I'm also impatient...meaning, I want to delve right in..the learning curve will come later.. :teach:
My quest?
Building a suitable (reasonably priced) system consisting of two (later four) speaker units, and a suitable tube amp setup.
I know...type of music/application..room size..budget..taste....wife (let's not forget about that)..
my main interests range from HiFi (70's-90's pop and Lizt 'Hungarian Rhapsody!' - Rachmaninov) to movies (non action)...
My first speaker build would involve the Fe126e (FH MK3) and Fe206en with a cabinet yet to be determined, the amp setup I like
(but might be grossly out of proportion or suitability) is the Mars kit 2 MK 2.
[size=10pt][size=8pt](btw...my contact may be able to source materials from China...)
[/size][/size]
Anyway... it seems that most AV stuff and electronics are
sourced from the Joburg area and CPT.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Someone I could speak to in the Durban area?
Feel free to dissuade me...all opinions are welcome!
