| Hello Everyone!
Hi, My name is Reed Hannebaum and I want to thank Sonnie and others for hosting this great forum. I am from the midwest and I have a wonder wife and 2 great children who are now grown up and on their own.
I've been and audioholic since my college days (way back when). I have an electrical engineering degree so naturally I am interested in the technical side of this great hobby, but I truely love music as well. Back in 1991 I started my own engineering firm and I had this company for 13 years until I sold it. Running your own company is all consumming, and during that time I completely got out of the audio world.
But a couple of years ago I decided to jump back in and I decided to put together a Mid-Fi 7.1 HT system. It took me awhile to get back up to speed on all changes and advancements since I last delved into this technology, but as we all know the internet is a fantastic world of knowledge.
I gradually started to get a grasp on this vast field and so I decided to set some goals and to lay out a game plan to get there. Well as they say, the best laid plans of mice and men... My plans have changed many times as I continue to learn more, but that is part of the joy of this facinating hobby.
My initial goal to build a very good home theater is far from complete, but my audio system is starting to sound half way decent. Despite all my reseach I still consider myself to be a novice in this field, but I know I can learn from all of you and maybe contribute a little myself.
I am sorry if I have been long winded, but I am truely looking forward to being a member of this group, and I hope you can help guide toward HT Nirvana! Thanks!
