Mechman,

Hopefully, one thing you'll find here at the shack is, your enthusiasm is what counts, not your equipment!

Another thing you'll learn with a bit of poking around, is that the room acoustics of your room play a huge role in how your system sounds - I've heard many inexpensive systems that sounded great, and quite a few expensive ones that sounded pretty bad.

So I guess what I'm trying to say is, even if all you've got is a clock radio from Wal-Mart, theres no need to be ashamed, We all started somewhere!
