Has anyone heard that both John AND Gary Bedini passed away within hours of each other this past weekend?

so far, only from this: John Bedini, Noted Free Energy Researcher, Died Unexpectedly on Saturday, Nov. 5, 2016 | Science and Technology

So sorry to hear this.
For both to go so close warrants a huge
question mark
Hope theres no foul play
Time will tell.

Sorry about the news , but that very link gives a very reasonable hypotesis, which does not need any "mystery" explanation but just some sadly coincident facts

Aaron Murakami, Peter’s business partner, posted a more detailed note in which he mentioned that John had been taking care of his brother Gary for some time due to ill health. Shockingly, John Bedini died only 4 hours after his brother Gary had passed away. I don’t know if John had any health problems, but it’s not unusual for people who are very close to each other to succumb to the grief of sudden death. John is survived by his wife Ronda and their children. I don’t know how old John was, but I’m guessing that he was somewhere around 70. I will call Peter Lindemann tomorrow and find out more information.

My respects to the surviving family.

RIP
Used to go down to their shop in Paramount, CA at the time and remember new amps lined up and burning in on the bench..
Interesting individuals and a unique history now gone
They will be missed....

Regards

It's always sad to hear of audio folks passing away.

He did some audio

I did some reading but did not find anything very significant. Was Bedini's Audio Spectral Enhancer ever implemented ? Just curious.

I am deeply saddened by the grave news. May both gentlemen rest in peace.

I just finished a Bedini 25/25 rebuild and had been thinking about contacting Mr. Bedini for some parts query and advice as to why I have several hundred millivolt of negative DC offset immediately after power up which actually drops after warm to still some 150-200 mV dc. I am now determined to revive the amp in Mr. Bedini's memory even if I have to replace all output devices and/or other semi-conductors.

Peace to all

Hi Seraph,
Replace the differential pairs with new matched devices. The offset should drop below 10 mV after that. Replace any electrolytic capacitors at the same time. You don't need magic capacitors, just name brand good ones.

Tomtt & Friends,

May I suggest we discuss more JB's audio work & audio legacy here and keep the 'other stuff' for some other forum?

+1.

I have had a Bedini preamp for about 20 years now. It isn't a high end preamp but it's served with no problems and I've enjoyed a lot of music with it.

RIP John Bedini.

Grant.

Thanks Chris. Caps are new. Will replace the differential pairs.
