At Edison NJ, they had B&W 808s and, iirc, B&W amps and a Cello Audio Pallet
used as a line amp/switcher - not too shabby.

I recall that back in the late Seventies Victor Campos asserted that he had
found a cartridge that made LPs sound "just like the master tapes" (of

A couple years later he had a Sonus Blue... much better!
