WORDS OF WISDOM FROM THIS EPISODE

Alex Stuart “An opportunity to do something I love for work means I haven’t worked a day since I bought the business”

Alex Stuart “Being younger, I have drive and enthusiasm. Maybe there are a lot of people who have lost their drive a little bit in HiFi…”

On the WiiM “Compared to something like the NAD 3020 which was the disruptor of its day….I think the WiiM is going to do potentially the same thing..”
