It was a wise decision, though may not be the best. I still have business in 16 Asia Pacific and Australia countries. Most importantly is that I can spend more time with the family and the hobbies. After trimming down biz traveling, especially long haul to the States and Europe, I play tennis, golf and swim 2、3 times a week for good health, and chatting with my son every night.
There was a choice between McIntosh MC601 monoblocks and Audio Note interstage 300B monoblocks. I bought the latter one at the end of the day. It was in the kit form and I built it myself, and made changes to whatever I wanted. That's one of the beauty of DIY.
I was born in early 60s'. May be 1、2 years older than you.老排 is probably the youngest amongst us. His passion on repair and maintainence really really impressed me. One day I may buy an Accuphase A-100 vintage and seek some advise from him.

We have things in common. Some America background, and big is beautiful! This is my floor standing loudspeaker. Weights 200lbs/each. A pair of them together with other equipment weights 500lbs.
I'm modernizing the speaker cabinet to wine barrel shape. Of course DIY.
