Re: True Dumble stories as told by Rick Wheeler

Howard...(I knew him before Alexander was in vogue)...not exactly a guy with a lot of business common sense. I know this personally. But he made great amps, gooped the crap out of them, and created a legend. I heard from Drew Berlin years ago that Dumble had "forgiven me" for some baseless injustice...

It's always tough to lose a pet unexpectedly. I'm very sorry for your loss, Mark.

Re: Dumble.com

Having known Drew Berlin and Howard Dumble since 1999 I can tell you if Drew is involved it's the right move. HAD and Drew were really close, and I'm sure Drew is doing the right thing.

Re: Video: Is new speaker break in necessary?

You don't "have to" break in a new speaker if you play loud (30w or more) and often (3-4 hours per day). It will break in nicely after 3-4 weeks. Most players don't have the kind of time or the room to play that loud. I do break in for two reasons, it weeks out any potential failures in 24 hours (us...

Re: F*cking clients

Sad case of clients having expectations you can't control without a written agreement. I'd get the amp back, see what the "new issue" is, and decide what to charge him from there. You're not running a charity, and he thinks you are.

Re: Single Ended Amps - Opinions

I've been toying with the idea of building a single ended amp for quite a while, but I've never come across a demo of one that sounded good with distortion. I realise they'll never sound like a Push Pull amp but they just always seem to sound so grating with no definition. The only one that sounded...
