Dyna-Kit, later Dynaco, of fond memory. Those were the days when a poor college kid could afford a SOTA system.
Good personal experience with Ayre and Aerial Acoustics. Both always give personal service.
Alon/ Nola / Dahlquist I owned a bunch of these over the years and still own Alon MK 5 speakers [ now in storage ] Ridge Street Audio is now the only cable I will own nothing is even close and if Robert keeps improving his cables I will be in the poor farm forever. The personal attention from Robert at Ridge Street is also very hard to top and one nice guy to talk to I have to here his speakers sometime. Marc
