When Life Imitates Audio Equipment (or the Other Way Around)

[Palouse]

Elk must like me better

[RonP]

I tried to hit “like” 50 times, but it won’t let me.

[Vmax]

Have you tried a laxative that works in such situations?

[RonP]

Ha! Look up “laxative”.
Thanks for the laugh!

[Vmax]

I am glad you’re moved by it.

@Vmax

The sound is flush with nuances. A purple fuse gives it that analogue whoopee cushion texture that @davida calls the blatulance I give it more of the f word description. But is speaker dependent.

Now now now Vmax those aren’t the words I used…I wrote the blatt of the sax…(saxophone)…
but perhaps some speakers pass gas…

Oh well …

Best wishes

Hard to choose which I prefer!

[davida]

My reactions exactly…

[DuneKidd]

I believe that this is a distant ancestor somewhere on it’s evolutionary tree…

[badbeef]

Oh man! That brings back memories of Christmas Past.

Just me?

Bit of a reach? Maybe…

Every time a pair of these pop up… [image] [Bonus: I spy a PSA PC in the background. ]

I am so not a fan of the appearance of those amps. To me they look like security jewelry boxes. The look completely stops any interest I might have in them. A personal problem for sure.

Looks like Steam Punk Deco Audio, but I like the unconventional twist. I’m more of a form follows function guy. I dig the austerity and clean lines of early Nagra, Studer/Revox, and Marantz.
Some of the newer kids like T&A and Aqua follow in this tradition. Stunningly simple.

Pass Labs gets it, as does Vitus, understated elegance for the latter.
