How LONG have you been an AUDIOGONER'?

Lake513. You're right. This has been a great community. It still is. I also have had a multitude of different buy/sell transactions on this site with never a hitch.

It's great to see some of the old names coming together on one thread.

Feb. 02 for me. I also have enjoyed the threads, both in reading and participating. I also have had many great buy/sell transactions with a lot of great members. It's interesting how some of the earlier members have dropped out. Did they just get bored or move on to another hobby and forum? It's nice to see a few of the old-timers still around. I have learned a lot from some very knowledgeble Audiogoners and I hope that somewhere I have been able to contribute some of my own experiences which has helped someone else. We are currently in the middle of a very tough economy. I have heard that it is going to get worse before it gets better. Let's hope that it gets better soon.

I recall the day I discovered Audiogon. I was so excited at the prospect of buying a "used" pair of speakers that I could have never otherwise afforded. Getting used gear was limited to the local "Reader" or the like and very much a hassel...

It was the winter of 1998 and at the time I was a huge B&W fan. I committed myself to getting pair of Matrix 802s or 3s. To me, and at the time, would have been the summit if audio nervana, alas, I never got them and end up getting a pair of Sonus Faber GPs ( I think my first purchase on the 'gon).

Now 10 years down the road and sooo much has changed in my life and sytem!

It must be exciting to be loging on to Audiogon for the first time these days!

WOW! I feel like a baby, since I've only been a member since March of 2003.

I have my first feedback from April 2005. I learned about this site from a friend. I love the members. Often articulate, always great to discuss/debate systems and components. I have gotten great ideas and product from other audiogoners. I have to give a lot of credit to members for how my system has evolved.
