    Going to be a really impressive line up..

    Amp looks great Alan. With each version you do the looks and design improves. I look forward to hearing it.
    One of these days... I'm going to cut you into little pieces.

    After hearing the Firebottle AIR in action with my speakers at the recent bake off I have been thinking about it all week. Even though my wife is probably going to kill me, I have asked Alan to build me one. I really liked the sound of this amp.

    It will be my Christmas present.
    Looking forwards to hearing some feedback from NEBO on it, as there seems to be quite a line up of different speakers.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Why make it easier for the wife to hit me with it?
    It will very likely cost me a handbag.
