THANK YOU to all my fans and supporters who are giving me "props" and a "kind word" about my kits and preamps in various forums. I can't express how much grateful and thankful I am for you guys doing this. THANK YOU!!!!

You've given me encouragement and second-wind to continue on and make more "stuff" for the future.

Sometimes, I feel discouraged when things are quiet... makes you want to close shop and stop doing all this because you feel like you're just wasting time and it's all futile.

What I've learned is Pro Audio is all about hype and marketing.

I know of pres on the market that probably have $50 worth of parts. And people are falling for the hype and brandname and spending obscene amount to buy these pres. Little did they know what parts are used inside that "professional preamp!"

Gimme a break! $50 dollars... that's just the cost of my input transformer!

If I'm going to apply the same pricing formula to my pres, I should be selling my pres in the $800 to $1000 range (and also outsource assembly & labor outside the USA.)

But I'm not. I'm selling my pres for half that amount... even less than half!

So maybe I'm dumb and stupid. I priced my pres inexpensively thinking I'm offering GOOD VALUE. Some person even doubt the quality of my pres because I'm selling them "cheap". I think some people will be happier if they spent 2x the amount.

Okay, end of rant....

PS: I love getting feedback & testimonials. PM or Email me! I'd like to fill up the website with them (post them with your permission of course)!
