Entertaining read. Thanks for posting Myles.

I thought this quote from the article summed up some of the comments on WBF:


“You can find much written in forums on the web about R2R tape. Some have heard it done right, and consequently they get it. Some deny master tape not only as a viable source, but also question the very sound quality of tape verses vinyl, or even high-resolution digital. But you can find people that believe almost anything on the web, and the vast majority has no real experience, just an opinion. That's why I have an audio store open six days a week full of great equipment, including tape decks and master tape copies. “

Mod Edit: made the language polite. Please keep proper language in posts. It only deters from the message when not done.

Kudos to UHA for the enthusiasm, but I do wish they had a better design sense. Some of those decks are tricked out like hookers during carnival season in NOLA.

I agree and do think they are way over the top. It reminds me of the jingle trucks in Pakistan and India.

Hey, I live in NOLA. You got a problem with our hookers? Some of which are damn gorgeous btw.

I second that.
I am from New Orleans and "if" we get a quarterback this season you better watch out.

Seriously now... if you don't like the look of the deck feel free to order whatever configuration you want, we custom make each deck to order and can make anything a person wants. We make decks the people want, they did't want to see the rack mount ears so BAM! Celtic side panels that bolt into the rack mount ears. We can even leave it the stock Exorcist pea soup green if so desired, (see below). After all my primary goal has always been the sound quality, the rest was for fun at audio shows, something different. Hey if you can't have fun with it better to just stay home.
