It's a Funny Thing

I was in the business at the time they made these tube units. We stocked and sold Sherwood, Pilot, Scott, Fisher, H-K, Dyna, Eico and McIntosh electronics. We had KLH Nines on demo, and Bozak Symphonies.

I recall liking Sherwood but not favoring it over -- say -- Pilot. Perhaps it had something to do with the cartridges and speakers of the era. Perhaps Sherwood was better than we knew. It is also possible that Sherwood benefits more from modern component upgrading.

Anyway, it was not obvious to us that there was anything inherently superior about Sherwood, and if anyone had suggested, as someone here did, that a Sherwood amp was comparable to a Mac MC225, well...
