[Amps] Now RCA (was DIN)

[Mike Sawyer]

I tend to disagree with you on that one, with the exception being consumer 
electronics. I own a RCA SSB-1K amplifier that is built like a battleship. A 
pair of 3-400Z's @ 2800VDC will do a kilowatt all night. This thing weighs 
in at about 300lbs and other than a filament voltage problem, (previous 
owner induced) it has been flawless. I also own an ET-4336F which was built 
for the British during Lend-Lease. I understand allot of these made their 
way into 813 amplifiers and the speech amp being a nice guitar amp. The 
AR-88 (along with its cousins the CR-88, CR-91 etc), were so good off the 
shelf that the military bought them by the gross. Plus, there are plenty 
broadcast transmitters out there that were built during the late 40's that 
are still on the air 24/7. So I think the "Really Crappy Apparatus" is a 
little overstated. I'll climb down off of my soapbox now.

RCA= "Requires Constant Attention."  Or: "Really Crappy Apparatus."
