    I've seen that site before actually. Some good reading.

    I've been interested in Phase gear, especially the preamps. According to El Roma, Phase Linear amps weren't the most reliable amps on the planet garnering the moniker 'Flame Linear'. The cool factor is pretty high and I wouldn't mind bagging some but I'd be leary of the amps as parts etc are mighty scarce.

    I was pretty infatuated with a preamp on E-bay a while back. Sexy is an understatement.

    If I remember right back in the day..late 70's early 80's that compared very closely with Carver equipment. I always liked the look of the Carver stuff better...That grey was awsome....
