As I was listening to music this afternoon and evening, I got to thinking about the equipment designers and manufacturers to whom I owe thanks to for my listening pleasure. Here are some of mine. Who are yours?

Designers who have greatly increased my music listen pleasure over the years:

Lloyd Walker - Walker Audio
Jim White - Aesthetix Audio
Ralph Karsten - Atma-Sphere Music Systems
Neil Patel - Avalon Acoustics
Saul Marantz & Sidney Smith - Marantz
Harry Weisfeld - VPI Industries
Bruce Thigpen - Eminent Technology

Thanks to all of you for the work you've accomplished and shared.

Great idea to share Rushton:

Kara E. Chaffee - Dehavilland Electric Amplification Co.
A.J. Conti - Basis
Jim Aud - PAD
Bill Conrad - Conrad-Johnson

Have spoken to all, love the equipment and...very important to me - excellent customer service.

Special note to the late Jim Thiel - never met or spoke to him but his speakers have been my audio favorite from the first listen.
