South metro area. Empire Township.

A friend introduced me to this forum as there was a bit of insanity occurring at our old hangout.

Welcome to the Shack!

Be sure to check out the Room EQ Wizard software - it's not just for EQ - it can give you nice frequency response graphs, just like the high end magazines!

you'll find a link at the top of every page.

Hi Steve and welcome to the Shack!

Hopefully you'll find it a tad more peaceful around here...

That's one thing I'll be trying to learn a little more about here. Audio. I think I'd decline posting my equipment list after seeing some of the other people's stuff.

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!

Hey mechman,

Welcome. I'm over in Chaska, but lived in Hastings for awhile.
