Saying Hello!

in Say hello
I have been into this lark for longer than I can remember. I am a member of AOS, Wigwam, PFM and Diyaudio and TAS although not that active on some.  A few years ago I got together with Alan of EWA and SECA fame and built a Pass F2 clone. Alan very kindly sourced a lot of the parts and it was a lovely amp with some monster back loaded horns I also built. I must get together with Alan again and hear this monster. I was only today reading Colin's "playtime with a monster amp" on AOS which gave the details and mentioned this forum.

I have found a renewed interest with DIY in the last 6 months or so and look forward to reading what others are up to.

Regards
Rob.

    Hi Rob

    Welcome to Chews. I'm Dave, the guy who keeps Chews running.

    I'm also the happy owner of a pair of Colin's SECA monoblocks. And there's quite a bit of DIYing going on here.

    Thanks to Colin for the mention on AOS.

    Dave I always mention you with feeling and admiration. Why ? because you write nice and I can't.

    Hi Rob, my old mate! Who are you again..?

    Of course, it's possible you're thinking of another Alan, also a dear friend of Colin..? Alan Elsdon, the 'E' in EWA. I'm sure I never built a Pass!

    I am Alan Brown, the 'AB' in ABCaudio. But you'd be most welcome to listen to 'Henry the Hooligan'. Alan Elsdon had a very fine M100 Turbo, I think, but I don't know what he called him.

    I don't know why you mention me with feeling and admiration, either :-)

    But I'm thankful you do ;-)

    Woops! I assumed incorrectly. I was of course as you say referring to Alan Elsdon. He used to go under the name Sondale, so perhaps that should have alerted me. Anyway nice to meet you. I was not aware of ABCaudio.....but I am now :)

    Here on Alan Island, there are too many Alans... :)
  • AlanAlan
    😡

    There is an almost adequate amount of Alans...

    Yes Rob, it was Sondale. I had forgotten his username. Anyway, Colin is still in touch I believe, and he is doing well.

    I met Colin at a TAS gathering somewhere in Berkshire a few years ago....appropriately called the ASBO (Audio Standard Bake Off)

  • uglymusicuglymusic
    Colin needs an ASBO. Is that what you're saying? :o :) :s
  • AntiCrapAntiCrap

    There was something I was going to say about your favourite teatime treat, but I'm being PC today ;)
  • AlanAlan
    I thought you were more Apple than PC, hence your problem viewing Wonfor artwork...
  • uglymusicuglymusic
    I'm Apple through to my core, Alan :s
