hi all
i have a passion for electronics since i was a kid. Understanding them is something else! My job is repairing TV, video, amps, computers etc.... Never went to school for that but i can make a living out of it. The most important in repair is practical experience.
Since i’m 43 and in electronics for 40 years 😉 ...
Respect for well-build amplifiers brought me here and the next project is an Aleph-x...i hope.
Thanks everyone for the great knowledge that’s spread trough this forum.

I am alive & like amplifiers, too
hello, netlist
hope you and me can become friends - and stay friends 😉
You will notice that I am a living creature (made by Creation)
I don't undress my personality, just to fit in, in any place.
Take me as I am - or I resign .....
Hope you like
SOLID STATE
transistor amplifiers.
It is dangerous stating with them TUBES 😀
You might never get out of that "TUBE-territory" again
if you go in ......
/halo - wishes you happy & interesting hours at Worlds (for the moment) best Audio Forum 😉

Solid tubes

Thanks for the king reply. Both solid state and tubes have their advantage. For me the final sound is the most important. I have an old Philips radio from 1959 (with tube of course) who has such a nice sound that i'm sometimes dancing in my workplace when i listen to it. I also own nice big B&W800's with a nice DIYamp, but sometimes the sound of that old radio gives me more shivers…

Those were the days - lets bring'em back ..
That is one of my wishes. I must go to some auctions
this summer to come - and buy me a bargain old tube radio.
When I was little boy, I was turning on that radio we had
on LV and shortwave. It was really fascinating.
To hear those voices in foreign languages.
I miss that. It took some time before the green Cat-eye was
telling that radio was warm.

Welcome Netlist,
if I could develop a passion for cricket, I would buy a valve radio as Test Match Special should only be heard on radios that claim to receive stations like Hilversum, Home, and Luxembourg. Unfortunately, I find cricket boring, so I listen to Radio 3 on my B&O transistor radio.
Perhaps we can convert you to valves? Or vinyl?

I'm not into converting. God knows what would come out of converting me!! I like the mix of all things.
Thanks for replying
