New guy from Cleveland Ohio

[Phil_Audio]

Hey there, I live near Cleveland Ohio and after going to these forums for all kinds of information, I decided to finaly join. A little about myself - I am 24 years old and started getting interested in audio at age 13 when I bought a pair of ADS 1290's and a Pioneer A-90 amp for $100! I didn't realize what I had until I was about 16 and while I was working at Best Buy (In home audio) someone offered me $600 for the speakers! (I didn't sell them of course) :) Since then, I have read all the radio shack books, worked in an install shop (and got MECP certified) worked in a body shop (Learned some fiberglass stuff) and got my degree in EE just so I could fix vintage amps and understand crossovers a little better. (I've since worked on and fixed 4 amps). I've also fell in love with ADS and picked up some more of their speakers. L1590, L730, L710. I power them for now with a NAD 744 and hope to someday get enough money for some nicer stuff, but for now I shop craigslist and ebay to try and get good deals. Anyway, I love coming to this place and hope I can help some people out as well as get some help on some current questions I have. Thanks a ton for reading! :)

thanks for all the responses!! For those of you who asked, I am on the East side in Willoughby. Maybe I'll get to meet one of you guys face to face someday. It's nice to know there are other people around here who are obsessed with audio gear! :)
