Well said.
It's your brand now Paul. But honouring the past ethos of NVA seems important to you too. Its a tricky balance, I'm sure!

Re: Monacor SP-310CX build

Makes perfect sense. I never used to pay much attention to box shape. Winisd gives you suggested dimensions when designing a box. I think they use the golden ratio.

Re: New names and numbers for NVA Power Amplifiers - discussion thread

The customer is only right when they are stating what they want, once they have settled for less than that, they get what they have paid for. Very few customers get what they want. I like this. In general parlance, I'd always assumed "the customer is always right" is just a phrase to capt...
