    I saw some amps I could afford but they're probably just boat anchors now. :D

    As it turns out I knew this fellow and have had several deals with him in the past. Sadly he's no longer with us as I just found out. I knew he was a collector but I had no idea that he took it to that extreme. Rip Walt
  • You have to credit Walt with having a plan in place for the proper redistribution of this gear back into the market. Too many times, this is left to chance and gets destroyed.

    Nice grab; and I see had a lot of 240's to choose from. I thought it was over and then I saw day 2 auction today. I see he had a thing for Thorens TD124's and SME arms as well
