I would like to start with my thanks to all our staff, who
created what is to be described here. The importance of their
exceptional qualification and talents cannot be overestimated.
A very special “thank you” goes to Manfred Reckmeyer,
whose longterm experience in tube technology including
custom modifications of tube gear for many artists made this
product possible.
Our products are often tested and compared in many publica-
tions and by our customers themselfs and constantly valued
with best results. I would like to pass on this broad appreciation
to those, who deserve it – my excellent colleagues.
