Hi Everyone,
I live in Minnesota, and I'm very happy that Google listed this site when I looked for "room equalizers" last week. I've been doing a lot of reading about how to use the REW software, and I'm looking forward to trying it to see if I can improve my listening experience. Here's a little bit of my background:
I've been very interested in audio gear and listening to music in general since I built a Heathkit amplifier back in the 70's. I like most types of music, but I'd say my favorite is guitar music. I like Leo Kotke, Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy, Santana and most other rock and blues artists. I think Santana started my interest in this area with his Abraxas album back in the early 70's.
I used the Heathkit for a number of years, and I still have it tucked away in a corner. I upgraded in the late 80's / early 90's to a Carver receiver and a couple of B&W speakers. I fell in love with the Carver's "Sonic Holography" sound processing. I really enyed the depth and breadth of the music that it produced.
Maybe 5 years or so ago I started accumulating gear for what would eventually become our home theater / listening room. I really wanted to continue to have the sonic holography, so my current system includes a Sunfire ultimate receiver II. I added a HSU TN1220 HO sub and amp, and 5 B&W speakers for the front and surround. I'll probably add some equalization at some point in the future depending on what REW shows. It's all a lot of fun and I really enjoy fiddling around with things.
I'm looking forward to participating in the forums in the future.
Regards,
Rog
