Who Is The Oldest

**Prof.** · **03-17-08, 09:54 PM**

I would be interested to know who is the oldest member at The Shack, that is still actively participating in their theatres...By that I mean, those who are still doing things like improving acoustics, calibrating and tweaking their systems, and the occasional upgrade..

Being an "oldie" myself, I am aware that there are very few of us on the forums..

I'm now 67 and almost every day I'm doing "something" in the theatre..even if it's just cleaning things..

Let's hear from you oldies out there, and what you're up to..

My dad is 68 and still tinkering around with his HT and Stereo room...his name is Richard so its not a bad word

My origianl word was differnt from tinckering but was edited for some reason...now my post makes no sense, just wanted to clear that up before folks thought I was an old guy with a loose mind.

Well Prof... I thought I was probably on the list but I'm just 48. Looks as if I have a ways to go to catch up with the excellent likes of you.

**Prof.** · **03-17-08, 10:15 PM**

Good on him...Is he a member here...if not why not.?..

Aw..shucks..I'm all embarrased

I'm afraid Zembonez you only qualify as a young man..

I am only 19. At least, that is while I am playing with all of these toys.

67, eh? Whippersnapper! I may only be 55 but I feel a lot older.

**Prof.** · **03-17-08, 10:52 PM**

And how old are you when you're not playing with your toys,?

If the concensus was about "who feels the oldest" I would have to win hands down...There are some days...

I'm honored to be called a young man! Especially by the Home Theater Yoda.

**lcaillo** · **03-17-08, 11:01 PM**

Hmm, where is Sonnie in this discussion?

**DRB** · **03-17-08, 11:01 PM**

May God bless you, Prof. A man needs something he feels passionate about.

**SteveB** · **03-17-08, 11:01 PM**

This is one of the few forums that I read where I'm not the oldest member. Makes me a happy camper. I will celebrate my 39th birthday this year for the 17th time.

I just love the fact that some things don't diminish with age. My love of faithful audio reproduction is at its highest level ever at 48. My computer room system is well beyond anything I had when I was in my twenties...

Enjoy it while you can...your hearing will start to go after fifty..

Home theater is just the latest in a long line of high quality audio in my life. I have explored vinyl extensively, SACD, DVD audio, and CDs of course... and finally Home Theater. The intricacies of HT are something I never thought would come to be in consumer audio reproduction. I have fallen in love with this stuff!

As a new member I thank you guys for making me feel welcome here.
