| Whose sorry now? Sellers remorse from selling amp. I must also confess to selling my McIntosh Mi-200 (industrial tube amp circa 1950), and my Western electric 594A 2"field coil driver (Circa 1930). I have never fully recovered from this mistake. The Mi-200 had the greatest bass I have ever heard. ... | |

| Can metal chassis become defective? I Herman: I accept your apology. I listen to only 80 year old Direct "eated" triode type 45 tube amps. The 45 tube amps are well known for their "Psychodelic" properties, images dance in space. After only 25 minutes of listening the world appears to... | |
| The effect of the Expanding Universe on turntables Einstein also stated that the SPACE-TIME in the vacinity of large objects such as planets is warped. Thus over a period of time the metallic parts of the turntable in this curved "field" can become permanently warped in size and shape. Even if the... | |
