[NJARC] Those pesky Bumblebees (Was Hallicrafters SX-111 Mk. 1)

[john ruccolo]

Hi Bill, Dave, and all,

I'll have to find the URL, but that ridiculous
paragraph was from a site that sells $20,000 boutique
tube amps. WHY must the audiophools always resort to
technically inaccurate tripe just to sell their
products???

What I'd like to say to them is simply: I LOVE tube
audio too, but don't treat me like an idiot! 

BTW, I have a Revox solid-state amp that sounds
GOOOOD!
