Anybody remember G.A.S.

I used a Shibata tipped Sleeping Beauty in a Fidelity Research FR-14 arm with a vacuum tube head amp on a Linn. This was in the late '70s. This was my favorite moving coil at the time. I also owned a Supex 900E and a Denon 103D.

Elgordo, I also owned the same things at the same time. I remember now the GAS cartridge being my favorite as well.

I certinly do! I had, at one time, the Ampzilla and Theadra per-amp. As I recall there was a 3 way battle for top honors in the Harry Perason camp between GAS, Audio Research and Mark Levinson (the company). I also recall that people who purchased Dalquist DQ-10 speakers used the GAS equipment to drive them....at least I did.

THE GREAT AMERICAN SOUND SLEEPING BEAUTY WAS A GREAT CARTRIDGE.I STILL HAVE ONE STASHED AWAY.USED IT WITH A HEAD AMP INTO A.R.C. SP6B PREAMP AND OF COURSE DAHLQUIST DQ10 SPEAKERS.

The Son of Ampzilla was my first "high-end" purchase. It is still being used regularly (in my bedroom system) and still sounds pretty good, considering its age.
