A.J. Conti of Basis Audio has passed away.

I thought this would be a better  year than last year as one of my favorite actors Leonard Nimoy (Spock) passed last year.

I commented in the other AJ thread but wanted to weigh in here also.  A real shame, such a passion for his trade, a gentleman and first class cusomer service skills.  RIP.

Sad to hear. I had many long enjoyable conversations on the phone with him too.

R.I.P.

God Bless AJ.

Over the past several years, when our child has come into our audio room inquiring about the Ovation's various parts and mechanics, I've reminded him "Be careful with Uncle AJ's instrument.  He won't be happy if anything happens to it."  Always curious about who's this guy AJ, our son would follow up with "Is AJ an engineer?  What does he look like?  Is he tall? How long did it take him to build this instrument?"

AJ -- A great, compassionate, sensitive human being and dearest of friends.
