Thanks Bill for getting this back on track.{#Cheesygrin}
And welcome Mr Kent, I got into RP after I retired.
It was a catch up on music I missed in the 80s going forward.

it's a great forum for stereo equipment, music and records of all eras but they can get down right mean.

One guy post something about himself. Ask a question. And everybody responds back with encouraging words and many, many answers to the questions.
This might go on for pages with no response from the O.P. ever/ never again.  
All good conversation for us though.
We tried at least.

Gonna start with an amp and new speakers, see where it goes from there. 
It's a safe and legal drug.
Unless, of course... you turn the volume up too high.

Welcome to the club! I'm in the same position as you - freelancing and was also blown away by the mix when I first found RP (years ago now).. 

You can listen to RP in the car. Download the RP app onto your phone, open the cache manager and you can store hours of music to playback when you are on the road. I do it all the time. 


I can have it outside with the app, then wireless connect with a wee mobile speaker.  Its a game changer. Welcome from those who feel as you do!!
