Totally Unrelated Posting But Still Deemed Interesting


Being a bit of an audiophile (a bit? you actually think it's a bit?... Vanna Opal), one of Mikey's heroes has always been the affable genius called Bob Carver. 



Now many of you most likely won't know who he is, but Bob (physicist and electronics engineer) once built a 1000 watt amplifier in a Folger's coffee can. He went on to found several audio companies over the years, and his love for all things electronic even extend to rebuilding old tube amplifiers in his spare time (he stores old tubes in his kitchen cupboards). Mikey ended up recently buying one of these amps, and has it currently powering the sound system in the store (beautiful Candy Apple Red chassis). But, the real reason for this posting is to share with you the below warranty, something only a guy like Bob Carver could do!
