    Sorry to hear about the ill health. Hope the retirement offers you the chance to relax and prioritise you enjoying yourself without any stresses to concern yourself over.

    All the best Colin, give me a shout if you’re up this way again.
    “Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

    Hi Colin, a shame, get well soon. Should boredom get the better of you and you want to start producing again, don’t worry about a company, a website, staff, anything. Just set up a shop on eBay and plop them on when you feel like building them.

    Sorry to learn of your poor health Colin, hope you recover soon and enjoy your hard earned retirement.

    Despite professional mistreatment by your colleagues, you can retire assured in the knowledge that your designs have brought pleasure to many audio lovers. I remember hearing those 6' high TOCA amps at an audio show in London in the early '90s(?) and being very, very impressed with their performance.

    Sadly I never go around to trying out your SECA design, which I think would have worked well with Quad 57 electrostatics, and whilst you have kindly published the circuit (along with other designs of yours), I would have wanted to build the kit, or at least have bought the PCBs.

    But I digress - enjoy your retirement and keep in touch.

    Best Wishes
