Favorite Music

[badsix]

Got tired of changing CD's about 5 years ago at Christmas for background music, so finally dove into the deep end and built a music storage and playback computer.Small form Dell, 1TB drive, dB Poweramp rip and conversion software and JRiver for playback.
Love jazz and blues, grew up on Rush, KISS, Van Halen, etc. so have a lot of rock. Elvis, Grass Roots, Johnny Mathis 60's and 70's stuff. Classical, Bach, Beethoven. A couple thousand country songs. And about 8 hours of Christmas classics. A little over 11,000 songs and growing.
All in lossless FLAC, I convert to Apple Lossless to load on the iPhone and playback in my helmet on the Spyder.
I still have a German Dual turntable, but don't spin vinyl often. I got really lazy controlling the music from a tablet.
Home system is a 70's Kenwood, completely gone over, recapped and noisy transistors replaced. Klipsch loudspeakers. And a Maverick Audio tube DAC with an NOS Tesla tube from Czech Republic, and Dexa discrete op-amps. Sennheiser headphones. Sounds like a lot of equipment, but it's just a hobby for me. Audiophiles use me to laugh at. But I can play at concert volumes, and the Klipsch move enough air to lift the pictures hanging on the wall off the nails. If I crank it to 10 the sun dims.

70s Kenwood, wouldn't be a KR9600 would it. LOTS OF POWER!

I also like to listen to Stan Rogers, have a Pandora station for him and similar music.

I listen to anything from the 50's, 60's, and some 70's. Also country-the older stuff and big band. As long as I don't have to hear the ringing in my ears I'm happy.

Seems no mater what I listen to, I still hear the ringing. Just have to ignore it as best I can.

Sorry off topic.

Yes it is an aftermarket dashboard.

No I did not paint it.
The dashboard is my 2nd one. The OEM dashboard was painted by ( mike- Blueknight911) after I bought my current spyder.

Back on topic, I listen to some 70's, 80's music.
