WORDS OF WISDOM FROM THIS EPISODE
“Preamp – Immediately it was a delight, the bass gained a little bit of.. depth and it was.. more fun and had a bit more oomph..”.
“Okay.. not a fan. There’s nothing about the ergonomics of this amp that I like, at all”
“Its about what you would expect if not a touch better for the money. It will work for 10-15 years“
