George is correct that geoffkait was eccentric, and that the products he sold from his company Machina Dynamica were for the most part even more so.
However, many, if not a huge majority of us always looked forward to geoffkait’s posts. His intelligence was undeniable and he was always interesting and entertaining and the range of topics he brought forth, many only tangentially related to audio, were among the most interesting on this website.
By the way, if you were gullible enough to buy some of his totally off the wall products, then you are among the more gullible on the planet. He also sold down to earth items such as springs.
Found this on geoff, not sure its source:
Geoff Kait -- Aerospace Engineering (theoretical fluid dynamics and propulsion, statistical thermodynamics, nuclear physics, indeterminate structures). Undergrad thesis: Preliminary design of low-thrust engine for interplanetary travel utilizing momentum transfer mechanisms in highly magnetic metal crystal bombarded by high-energy ions. Work experience: satellite operations; radar data analysis; aerodynamics of high-performance aircraft; reentry vehicle dynamics; radio communications; satellite communications; spread spectrum communications.
He’s gone, and no one has filled the void.
You’ve got to be kidding, more like the new real deal geoffkiat
Members here wondering who geoffkiat is, well lets just say his views on audio match.
Just look at his avatar and you’ll know one of them is the founding father of audio voodoo
