Hi All
Just joined the forum after coming across Martins excellent guides to setting up the RPi for audio.
I'm just retired (a bit earlier than usual) but have been into music/hifi since I could afford to buy my first system. Started streaming when the Squeezebox came out and have tried other things including Vortexbox along the way.
I'm also into vinyl and have 2 decent playback systems based around tweaked Rega turntables and electronics - I've just re-jigged the attic system to use active speakers fed from a Cambridge Audio DacMagic Plus for close field listening and I've been pretty impressed with the results. I'm using M-Audio powered studio monitors.
I'm also into Photography, and living on the edge of the Peak District I do a fair bit of walking.
regards
Chris

Hi Chris,
Welcome.
As a fellow newbie, I'd like to say this seems a pretty friendly place so far. Everyone has been helpful when I've asked a question (and not judgemental on any of the dodgy music I post up on the "what are you listening to now" thread.). What more can you ask for......
Cheers
James.

Hi Chris and welcome from me. Thanks also for making me smile. I initially skim-read your intro only to find you are "into photography and living on the edge"! The closest I get these days to living on the edge is deciding whether to have cream in my coffee

Welcome from me too Chris!
I love the Peak District - I often get to spend a bit of time there when visiting my mum in Manchester ...
I'm also into photography - you've got plenty of natural inspiration on your door-step there of course ...
