Young HiFi dot com

Hi gang, Wojtek here (who else?). I’ve been very busy lately (and frankly, I still am) by doing college stuff, so I didn’t have any time to spend on the blog. I’ve managed to pass all the tests, but I still have 3 exams ahead of me.

I promise I’ll get back to some writing right after the examination session.

Furthermore, I’ve decided to slightly divide my blog. As you probably know, I sometimes also post strictly personal posts, sometimes not even related to audio (just like this one here) and I’m not too comfortable with that, because I want this blog to be only about my audio experiences and not all my personal experiences…

That’s why I decided that when I’ll have some more free time on my hands, I’m going to put up a personal blog next to this one. I dunno if I’ll be also using the Wordpress platform for that purpose, but the main idea is to have a place where I can post about stuff completely unrelated to audio, so to not clutter up the content you may find here.

There’s also an idea of starting a “Young HiFi” forum, a discussion board where people who are new to the whole HiFi biz or any other audio hobby have some questions. I’ve noticed that most popular audio forums out there don’t have a “newbie corner” and sometimes the new guy gets ignored or laughed at just because he’s not one of the “elite”…

That’s it for now, tell me what you think about the forum idea, because maybe I’m wrong and such a place isn’t even needed in the big WWW :). I’ll keep you posted when something comes up…

It seems that as of late I can’t write anything at normal hours, either I write a post early in the morning or late at night. It’s kinda crazy. Anyway, things are starting to heat-up at college (got a test on linear algebra on Monday and discrete mathematics on Wednesday), so I’ll be pretty much occupied with hitting the books on the weekend, so I can’t promise anything about my posting frequency in the nearest future. That being said, let’s get down to tonight’s business…

Last time was a “bedtime” post, so this time it’ll be a “good morning” post! It’s kinda weird actually, it’s still dark outside and I rarely get out of bed at such an hour if I don’t have anything planned for the morning, even more so on a Saturday!

This week I finally got a pair of loudspeakers for my receiver. I’ve also done some cable huntin’ in Warsaw. Thought it would be easy in such a big city. I never thought that I’d start to despise the city street planning afterwards…

OK, it’s almost 2 am now and I’m finally back in Warsaw, in front of my computer. Actually, I came back as I planned before, meaning that I arrived in Warsaw on Thursday, 28th December. Why haven’t I written anything since then? The answer is that I was too busy and too tired to touch the blog at all. I had to have some good old fashioned relaxation after Christmas (a bit funny, isn’t it?) and after that preparations for New Year’s Eve were afoot and so on. Anyway, it’s easy to justify yourself for lack of time, right? That’s why I’d like apologize to any returning visitors of my blog for being absent for the past one and a half week. Now what happened exactly during that time …
