    Amazing! We need more "Made in Japan"
    I'm saving up to get a Cinema 30 and knowing it's made in Japan reassures me that its worth it and will last a lifetime!

    So a quality amplifier is expensive because many employees do a lot of manual work on it? In my opinion it is the quality of the parts and engineering of the circuit board. The fewer hands the better.

    Don't let J & B see the slide on 7:46 because they'll find a way to cut some of these numbers in half.

    "The only one". Maybe time to start training one more person, you think ?

      Hi Andrew, we are planning on kicking off a series of CZcams live-streamed sessions where attendees can actively ask questions

      You don't understand, If you yourself have never done any fine handwork. This can only be done by women. Only they have the patience, and smaller hands and skill to do this. Younger people aren't interested in this kind of work. Eventually there will no longer be records to play, just like there's no one making buggywhips. I'm a geezer (77) who was in the cartridge biz
