Hi from Melbourne


Hi all,
My name is Dave and I'm from Melbourne, Australia. I design and manufacture components for the motor racing industry for a living.

I heard about your site from a mate (absolute HT nut) who uses Room EQ Wizard, had a look, liked it, joined up.

I am about to get a BFD for my new SVS sub and the information that you provide on this site will be very helpful, and is much appreciated.

Thanks

Re: Hi from Melbourne


Hey Dave and welcome to the Shack! Glad you like the forum and joined up. You'll be a part of it from its beginning. Today begins our second full month of being open.

We are sure getting a lot of folks from Australia... a country I have always wanted to visit and hope to one day.

If you can wait.... you might win a BFD. I know it's tough to wait it out sometimes though. I'd probably be too anxious myself.

Motor racing huh? No NASCAR in Australia is there? Is there a circuit there?

Re: Hi from Melbourne


Hi Sonnie,
Yes there used to be, my brother in law used to race. We had a track at a place called Calder Park, but I guess it just never caught on. Holdens (GM) vs Ford is all the rage down under ( called V8 Super Cars).

Still, we have a very big Speedway following here, and I often see quite a few Americans racing here.

Re: Hi from Melbourne


Welcome to the form Rez:
When looking to fix my SVS they recommended the BFD and Sonnies guide. Thanks to the lobbying from the gang I now use REW - SVS/BFD/REW make a great combination.

Re: Hi from Melbourne


Gday All

Im Rae, the HT nut that Rezon_8 mentioned above - thought id just tack on the end of this thread rather than start another - sorry Dave not trying to hijack your thread.

I live in Melbourne, Australia and am in small business.

Have had a love of Hi-Fi for ~ 25 Yrs - started buying gear at 15yrs old, and have been upgrading ever since (I bet thats normal around here

Cheers from the land down under
Rae

Welcome aboard all!


If you don't have a BFD for your sub, get one fast!
