What an incredibly awful article. What was the purpose of doing this article?
I Recall the details of the auction of the system and was horrified. How could his family not enlist the support of the audio community to take great care and do what this man wished to be done.
The deficient and negatively biased article should have at least expanded upon some notable efforts that he made to system going beyond the turntable. He devoted his life to creating something that was truly remarkable and memorable and this article failed to capture the essence of what he tried to do. Tarnishing all he worked for was so inappropriate. Sure there deservedly was a need for attention to focus on his obsessive nature toward building the system and that would’ve been fair. And that would’ve been a nice thing to read about. But frankly I really didn’t enjoy reading the article and all the negativity.
The end of this man’s life was incredibly sad and difficult. Most of us will probably be similarly treated during our final days. Nature is so unfriendly at times.
I have to believe many facets of his system could’ve found their way into the home of someone who is involved in audio. There was so much to appreciate and learn from what this guy did.
