Hello everyone,
I´m Timo, 26, from Hamburg. Currently I´m writing my bachelor thesis in mechanical engineering and over the past few months i just got into the audiophile life.
I´m currently not owning a whole set up, but I have raised the funds to order all parts of it. I have owned an AKG Q701 for the past 3 years but only drove them through my computer soundcard, which I later upgraded from the onboard one to the Soundblaster Z. After the soundcard broke down I was curious if i could get more out of my AKGs then with just a soundcard.
And thats how my journey began. Since then I´ve been browsing countless forums and read hundreds of reviews and bought myself some magazines. As I´m a student I´m on a budget but the setup im opting for now is the following:
Schiit Modi 3 (already ordered and on its way)
into the
Little Dot MK III (been looking a while to get a used one, and as it happens this forum has one to offer :D )
I know its just a beginner setup but I guess it will give my AKGs just the extra bit of warmth and bass I´ve been missing the last 3 years.
I also put a ton of time into the matter of tube rolling and have already decided on my first couple of tubes i want to order when i get my amp.
Well and for the last part:
I mainly listen to techno, house and d´n´b (that´s why i was looking for some more punch in the lows) but I also enjoy myself some Indie, Downbeat or sometimes even Hip-Hop or Metal. Guess if the music is produced well I will listen to everything :D
In my spare time I work out, go skiing, read sometimes and of course I´m enjoying the night life a lot.
Well hope you guys have gotten a litte picture of me and I hope i can add some things to this forum.
With the kindest regards,
Timo
