| Interesting Article I started listening to vinyl in 1956 on a Zenith portable record player. My Mother removed it from me when I learned I could alter reality by turning the record faster with my finger. My later turntables included: Panasonic, Garrard Sl-95B, Garrar... | |

| Amps for Egglestonworks Andra II or Sophia 2 If money is tight, try a BAT VK-300SE integrated.These sell for ridiculously low prices, have 300 watts @ 4ohms, and will spank the Parasound in the musicality dept.You WILL need to upgrade the 6H30 driver tubes to NOS "DR" version as the new ones... | |
| THIEL Audio their demise... Since a "Company" is nothing more than its people, why doesn't the Thiel "old guard" start a new one?The planet is awash in zero interest cash so financing shouldn't be a problem.If they start small, speaker building is not a capital intensive ent... | |
