    Default A BIG thanks you is offered :-

    Isn't this forum great

    I own a Albarry AP4 pre amp , It has years of service under its belt ( Albany products ARE built to last ) but recently things went adrift
    The sound was compromised and slowly a hiss developed , The days were numbered for the AP4
    Not being the type of person that would sell it in this condition the time had arrived for some diagnostics and repairs . Out of my skills

    Where do I go Who do I call ? Some more head scratching later , Then the bright light moment

    Ha Ha someone springs to mind , and I just happen to be seeing this person at the WW show at Melton Mowbray

    A quick PM begging for help

    And like a knight in shining armour on a white stallion he comes to my aid ( Good story telling or what )

    The one The only Beobloke ( Adam )

    I hand over the AP4 at the show and sit back and relax knowing its in safe hands

    Some time later a huge brown box arrives ant my front door ( Yesterday ) excellent packing = NO DAMAGE

    The repairs were = I will leave that part to Adam as I am not very technical , My words would be " Some internal gubbins were taken out and replaced with new gubbins

    I am assured its all sounding sweet again so I am VERY happy , Will get this back in my system as soon at time allows / next week as I have a weeks holiday

    So a BIG THANK YOU ADAM is in order

    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!”


    ***SMILE, BE HAPPY***

    Aw, shucks...

    You're very welcome, Al - always happy to help out a fellow pishanto gatherist! Also, apologies again that it took so long - blame something called 'life' getting in the way of the interesting stuff...
