    I'm Tommy.

    Default Hello

    I'm from Norway. I love music and most people who knows me would call me an audiophile I guess.
    I prefer two channel stereo with the possibility to play a little loud with very good and deep bass.
    For the moment I have the Focal Alto Utopia speakers connected to a Musical Innovation Mi pre-amp and amp.
    Weird enough I'm still stuck with CDs. I can not relax with streaming and such.
    So therefore I use a B.M.C dac 1 and a BDCD1.
    I also built 4 diy subs with the Infinity Kappa 120.9 12" subwoofers for the lowest frequencies.
    I really listen to all sorts of music. But prefer jazz for relaxing.
    This is not my first system. Back in the 90's I also had a big system. For 4 years I also worked in Norway's biggest store. Oslohificenter.
    In 2000 I sold everything except from my CDs that I stored in boxes.. In 2015 I bought a surround system. Thinking it must be good enough. Boy....I was wrong.
    Advice: Do not listen to a good system if you can not afford it!! My music was buried for 15years only to show me that I can not get comfortable with cheap stereos.
    Well ..now I'm comfortable with the sound. But still want more...
    Thanks for accepting me
    Regards Tommy Fredriksen

    Hi Tommy. Welcome to AOS.

    There are many who don't use streaming and are happy with records or CD, so you are not alone.

    If you want to discuss developing your system, why not start a thread in the Blank Canvas section and outline your ideas.

    There's plenty going on here, so just join in any chat that interests you, everybody is friendly.


    Enjoy the forum,
    Geoff.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”
