Can't say as I do. I'm in Indianapolis, IN. Try calling Weinhart Design(310-472-8880), in L.A. They may know of someone in your area.

Your statement regarding the, "ultimate" power cord being found a Home Depot, has me wondering if you actually believe research has been static since your schooling, back in the day. I would think these guys(or their customers) might take issue: (...

Fuse Blowing on Superamp AE 25
