We do love valves and think that equipment using valves as opposed to semiconductor devices results in a magical sound quality. Valves make music more alive. Others may disagree of course, its a personal view.

Specifications are important but they cannot convey the emotional satisfaction that only quality valve equipment can offer?

We believe and understand that many items of vintage equipment are worth repairing and restoring. Heritage is important and you will be surprised how good your vintage equipment can sound when it is operating properly. It will sound better, look better and have lasting material and emotional value after a restoration and service.

We are committed to supporting and servicing all types of vintage valve and semiconductor equipment.
