Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

RE: Why Is Vintage Stuff So......

I don't know about modern gear, because I can't afford it. But I am working on rebuilding some vintage transistor gear. I have worked on both tube and transistor gear. The transistor gear is usually more complex and the workspace is much tighter, but it is doable. If you are starting with electrolytic capacitors, that is what you will be using, because there isn't enough space for anything else. Still, I expect my Threshold CAS-1 and my C-2x to be around for quite a long time. Don't get me wrong, I've owned and loved tube gear. I currently own pieces I plan to restore. I just think there are worth sand amps and preamps too.

As fare as the review goes, I was wondering about that tone control statement myself. I linked to it to show that they were still making Citation copies.
