Audio Interests:
Jason builds speakers and plays with electronics. 

Most Recent Audio Purchase:
Jason purchased a pair of Tang Band W8-1722, which are 8” neodymium full-range drivers. He added that it was expensive to have them shipped from China.

Current Audio Projects:
Jason is, as always, building speakers.  He is also putting together a system for his daughter that includes a Bluetooth receiver for her iPhone 5s. He read that the Bluetooth sound quality has improved and was excited to hear it.

Dream System:
His ideal setup would require a big budget and room to contain the equipment that he would add/remove from his current system. This week, he would buy an Oppo HA-1 headphone amplifier. Since this is his “dream” system, he would also like the room to change size and shape from day to day.
