I was ten when I bought my first Heath Kit amp!
I learned a TON from that project!
Built a pair of speaker cabinets to the speakerlab specs of the drivers I bought( I mowed a TON of lawns that summer.....almost 50 hours a week!!)

I was a ROCKSTAR in my own mind and recieved a ton of hugs and "that-a-boy" from family members and friends when they actually heard it!

And it sounded pretty good.
12" woofers,5-1/4" mids,1" soft dome tweeter.
Crossovers that I actually desgned, soldered, and built!

It pretty much gave me the incentive to strive to be the best that I could be at anything that I could do!

It also brought me into this industry.
I spent 28 years creating positive relationships with clients while fulfilly their needs and wants.
Busted my a** to meet deadlines and keep the build schedule on tract.

And I learned so much more along the way than any college could possibly offer that I feal like I made a good choice!

Many became 'family friends'!

Life has been good!

I'm still pretty proud overall!

I actually had to LAUGH at "THE GUY" that mentioned in July of 2012 that "You didn't build this"............ but that's another conversation......
