Does anyone know what happened to Mike (SolidSqual)??

I miss talking with him. Has anyone been in touch with him? He has not posted here since 2015. Just think of all the stinkin' badges he could earn if he just logged in and said "Hi"... :p

    That's the last I heard as well... He moved to Ohio as I recall. I remember picking up some room treatments from him that he was going to be leaving behind. He posted up until 2015 however, so I know law school and his marriage were a few years before that.

    If that's the case, he is very busy working as an attorney getting in those billable hours, and probably spending time with his family. That won't leave time for much else, and his system is probably the last thing on his mind.

    You older guys are at a different place in life, you have more time to fool around with this stuff since your kids are probably grown and out of the house, the younger members have more important priorities than audio.

    Perfect examples of this are Trey and Joey. They used to live on here and now they only occasionally pop in to say hi.

    That Anthem receiver is a nice looking unit...

    What kind of speakers are those?

    Hey All,

    The speakers are Power Sound Audio MTM-210s with dual V1811 subs. I just purchased a new home here in Dublin, OH and these are the anchors of my new home theater. Some crazy Nut by the name of F1 told me years ago to focus on 2 channel first. Mission Accomplished.

    Man it's good to be back. Glad to see some familiar faces.

    Good Morning!

    Mike

    Middletown...cool! That's where I grew up. Middletucky for sure. I was born in KY and moved to Middletown when I was 4. I lived in the same neighborhood and was friends with those folks featured (The Vance's) in Hillbilly Elegy. Ron Howard is now making it into a movie.
