Tennessee Boy living in Florida.


Hello all, first off I'm honered to be a part of such a fine forum, Ther is alot of talent as well as some great people here.
As my title said. I am from Tennessee, living in Cape Coral Florida, came here as a career choice, I have a backround in music, as a Guitar player / Singer, but I loved the sound system, when we set up at each venue, I was there doing soundchecks, EQ'ing those kick drums with a 31 band rane EQ for each
Kick, tweaking them untill they hit you in the chest like a sledgehammer!! nothing like a thundering drum set coming through QSC power amps pushing 18,000 watts and 6-18" subs per side and the rest of the mids and highs! (A gang of 12's and JBL lensed horns).
I also got into car audio, cramming as many Rockford Fosgate DVC 12's and Hi-fonics amps as I could fit into a S-10 Blazer, It hit 142 DB as the roof of the truck flexed nearly two inches, (and yes, I am half deaf from all this).
I recently bought my TV and HT sound system, and with my compulsive nature and hi wattage backround, it seemed only normal to me to start upgrading, much to the dismay of my wife, (I actually returned a RCA HT system, and a Sony before the Onkyo system I have now) Whats wrong with this one? she would ask, well, you know the drill, This is the last one I'll need, well, THIS is the last one....and now, up grading Subs, plans for DIY mains, etc, etc.
Working with all the metal fab tools I have at hand I hope to have some cool designs coming up.
So thank you all for having me, here's to some great sound and 1080P video!!
