Who is Nick Doshi?

Dan:

Time to re-read "The Chronicles of Narnia".

Might help, me thinks.

I'll second Cello's comment and add that what you hear about Nick's work is true. Just a few hours of listening and comparing with other preamps was enough to convice me. Thanks to Doug Deacon, I was fortunate enough to get my order (I'm going to try Nick's pre and phono seperates) in at the right time so I believe I'm next on the list. I'm hoping it arrives around the same time as my new Galibier.

I've got to start saving my pennies now since Nick is hoping to have a new monoblock out next year.

Hi Patrick,

I'll third Cello's comment. Nick is up there with Mehran of SoraSound in the audio-nice-guys department.

There are some tidbits about Nick's amp and preamp on my system page. Googling doesn't produce much because Nick is indeed a private designer with no interest in going commercial. Each year he makes 10 or 12 reference caliber preamps (and even fewer amps) for selected clients/friends.

You get selected by being friendly (I lied on the application) and via introduction by an existing owner. Once you learn the secret handshake and unscramble "The Doshi Code" you can join the club.

If you think Nick is hard to research consider Raul's designer. All we know about him is his first name, Jose. Google that!

"No one knows the way to Raul's Jose" (song to the tune of a 1971 Carpenter's/Burt Bacharach pop tune"

Sorry,you are all wrong.It states,in The DaVinci Code that the Holy Grail was not a cup,but a descendent of Christ.That person,and their lineage was protected by a "society" with the initials of "N.D."As centuries past,the additional linear descendents were STILL followed,and protected by a society known as "Opus N.D."!!
Clearly Dan Brown was alluding to the "Great" Nick Doshi!!

BTW-I have NO idea who he is!
