    Thanks for posting, they also had interviews with Pass and former Krell founder Dan D'Agostino and several speaker designers.

    The man who has done it all, LOVES the sound of ribbons and tubes.

    Case closed...:cool:


    PS. I don't think he likes 70+ LB. amplifiers either.
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    Thanks for the link, that interview was captivating! You guys are like a poison. Here I am trying to prepare some extra materials for Monday's classes and you take an hour away from me!

    OK, it was worth it. I've had the opportunity to hear a few Carver amps and also the Large Amazings which are certainly Amazing on some forms of music--especially concert hall symphonies (incredible reproduction of that venue).

    I know we're all losing our hair but I didn't expect to see Bob go Kojak on us! lol

    liked the video. the interviewer seems like a stereotype played by will farrell. The guy was super cheesy and is more of "dork" than he is a "geek."
    Bob was intriguing, however.
    design is where science and art break even.

    Agreed not a great interviewer but the interviewies usually make up for his dorkism.
