Where does your user name come from?

Comes from my first name and after hearing so many different amp topologies, what I think sounds best, not necessarily that I own a SET.

The very first time I heard a SET amp, I was at a show in Philly and heard about 7-8 different SET amps. 845's, 211's, 300B's, and a 2A3 amp (from Cary, Berning, Audio Note, Fi and others) and it was quite a revelation.

O = Obin (my first name)

and

J = Jessica (my wife's first name)

we've used this username on ebay since 1999. i use it on all the auction websites and it helps to keep things straight.

I don't like noise.

Mine is from my favorite band (Roxy Music) and the year that I was born.

Company that made "straight line" tracking turntables back in the day. The tone arm didn't swing in an arc...it moved in approximately a straight line, at a right angle, to the circumference of the record. My parents gave me one for my high school graduation. It was a guaranteed conversation starter in the college dorm in 1972.
