Lars had a stroke.

I'm sorry to be so blunt with the header but I just found out that Lars of Sjofn HiFi had a stroke recently. He's known as Highendman here on A'gon.

I was ready to order some Supra Ply 3.4s speaker cables and couldn't get through at first. His website is down as well. I believe it was his wife who returned my call and verified what Madison Sound told me while sourcing the cables.

From what I gather he's a great guy to deal with who truly loves what he does. Everything concerning his business is on hold for now as he recovers. I wish him a speedy return to good health so he can continue doing what he loves.

All the best,

Another reminder that tomorrow and your health are never guaranteed. I'm twenty years in the medical field and it is absolutely frightening how many suffer a stunning early disability and/or demise.

That trip you've been thinking about to the Lake District of Chile........take it now, not 5 years from now.

Lars lives here in the Seattle area. Might check up on him personally. We all wish him a speedy and complete recovery.

Lars I wish you a speedy recovery. I have dealt with Lars for a number of years now, mainly on Supra Cables. A great individual to deal with......I look forward to him being back (very) soon .

Get your blood pressure checked, guys.

Years ago I visited my doctor for a routine check up and my blood pressure was sky high. As a cyclist who could ride 100 miles any day of the week, I was in great physical shape too. After the doctor took my blood pressure, he said: "Do you know what's worse than dying from a major stroke?" I said no, what? He said: "Living after a major stroke!" I've been on BP medication ever since.
