Good afternoon,

I am Stanley Siegel from Katonah, NY, not far from NYC.
I have taught for many years (law) at New York University.
A long-time high-end hi-fi person. Present system includes Nakamichi TX-1000 turntable, Graham arm, van den hul Black Beauty cartridge. Digital is Esoteric K-01XS and Moom Mind streamer. Amp is Levinson 585.5 and speakers Genesis 350se.

I listen to everything, but lean toward the classics. Large collection of LPs and CDs.

Good to be part of the forum!

Hi and welcome. Some very nice kit you have there.

Welcome to AoS Stanley,

You have some fine audio gear there. I'm a bit of a Levinson and Van den Hul fan myself, but both are a generation or two before yours.

Enjoy the Forum

Many thanks for your welcome notes. Glad to be here! I have been at this for 60 years, so I have owned and listened to a whole lot of good equipment.

I began with Fisher and Sherwood; remember those?

And with Levinson, I began with an ML-9, then on to ML-20A's, then on to the 380S/336 combo. Now down to one piece, the 585.5, which is very, very good. Glad to review it if anyone is interested.

And on analogue, I began with a Fairchild turntable, and on through SOTA and others. The Nakamichi is a classic, and old, but extraordinary.

I was for many years in reel-to-reel, but I decided finally to limit myself to LP and CD, as well as some streaming (for light listening).

I look forward to talking with all of you.

Best wishes, and Happy Thanksgiving, from New York

Stanley
