Sophia Electric is not honest

Back about fourteen or fifteen years ago I bought a used Sophia Baby Electric from an executive of Sophia who told me he was selling it because he had it in his office system, and he had received a promotion within the company which necessitated him moving back to China. That made it pretty clear this was a Chinese company. I still have the amp and it works well in a secondary basement system.

The decorative metal plate came off my early Sophia EL 34 A/B amplifier.

The excellent tech at Pro-Tech Services, Bob, recommended I not put it back on, even with Gorilla glue. If the conductive decoration has slipped even a little lots of pins would be shorted.

Bad design. It sounds quite good, though.

Does anyone out there have a spec. sheet for this amplifier (Sophia EL 34 A/B)?

Sophia now denies having any documentation. These are not my favorite people!

Looks like the title is not quite accurate, and in bad form. The title should be changed to an accurate statement.

@koh_i_noor it is from 2020, get a grip. Not the first time these claims have been made.
