I'm Rajeev from Mumbai, India and have been a dormant audiophile for almost 40 years now, since age 15 or so.
About 4 years ago I mentioned my to my wife that my colleague in New Delhi had bought himself a new BMW 5 series automobile in which he took me for a no holds barred joyride. I am reasonably frugal about these things, and the kids were almost through college, and so wife asked me a few days later if I would like to buy myself one, to which I responded saying there's no point, considering the Mumbai traffic and roads and the fact that, being an airline pilot, I didn't get that much time in Mumbai. My current VW has 9000km on the odo in 2 years.
I did say that if I could have a corner of the house to myself and spend 10 to 20% of the BMW budget on HiFi audio equipment, I'd be a happy bunny for life. She's not so sure now if she really wanted me to be that happy.
So happy bunny I am, but whoever said bunnies a immune from upgraditis . . . ?

Happy also to be part of this forum. I came in search of info on building the Audiomods arm kit.
