About Mike Powell
This is the place where you leverage my talent at building audio systems for yourself. In other words some people like to spend much time researching, learning, tlaking with people to determine how they would like to build their HiFi system.
I have a tier of clients that are exactly the opposite. They don;t mind knowing basic things, but really thy want a result and that’s the important thing. Therefore, I am given a budget, the parameters, and the desired result of a HiFi system. And I create the system, soup to nuts. You say make me a system, and I make all the decision. This is truly the best way to get a world class HiFi rig that does not take time away.
Some extra services I provide.
Remote access for Music server setup. Its as easy as letting me log on to your desktop from my office and you can sit back while I manage the server and network settings.
Ripping service for those that have not yet ripped their CD collection. This is a very painstaking process if you have not tried it yet. if you have over 50 CD's. We include 100 free rips with any server purchase with a 1TB SSD or higher, then .50c each CD afterward. In other words , we can sell you a music server already loaded with your whole CD collection when you receive it.
Remote room tuning. I send you a microphone and laptop, you set it up and I can read your room and make suggestions and offer solutions.
Component modification. I am a modification technician and can improve the sound of most any component. I do not take repair jobs, unless its a brand I cover.
Custom products. if you have a special project that requires equipment not made or custom colors or look, I am able to make nearly anything happen when I include all my professional contacts.

This means that you stand for a full integrity HiFi market.
One with honesty, respect, and comradery.
A literal "safe zone" where you can purchase at the cost listed. Instead of us publishing a fake inflated price
in order to offer you a fake discount where you end up getting the retail price anyways.
We represent a healthy buying and selling atmosphere, whereby you are assured to receive a deal that "goes to 11"
We start with a fair deal, then give you one more step of value so you always know that you will receive a very slight advantage .
By giving us your patronage, you commit to help us create a better HiFi market and industry. Allowing us to go one more step for our members, this is what e11even is all about.
In order to make this very clear, this complete concept is fueled by you purchasing HiFi from e11even stereo.
