I remember us talking about the 3CX1200's in you store when they first hit the 
market. You thought at that time that the tube would be the 4-1000A of the 21st 
century. I think time has proven you right. I only regret that some 
manufacturers chose the "A7" instead of the "Z7"....the track record would be 
more sterling than it has been.
