[Vintage-Audio] Re: RCA B and Nashville studios

[Bob Scupp]

Duane-

Unfortunately, some individuals do not have the deep
seeded appreciation for vintage audio equipment like
we do here. I really enjoy my toys but it seems like
their was some sort of a "peak" during the 1970's. I
am not saying anything before that was not quality.
Rather during the 1970's so much excellent audio
equipment (especially solid state) was manufactured
that as the Zenith slogan would say "The quality went
in before the name goes on". It matters not if it was
made here in the USA or overseas. It just lasts
forever with minimal maintenance/repair.

So let's all enjoy our vintage joys while we can!
