In Mach 2006 Johannes LeBong visited me to pick up his tonearm. In his Weblog is his report about the Berlin visit. very nice the vietanmaese food, tube amp powered restaurant....
On this occassion I was happy that he brought his nice amps. It showed that a bi-amping solution should be an ideal match for driving the siemens eurodyn. But wait a minute this is the tonearm page...
He brought his heavily modified Thorens 150 with him. The plinth is made of high quality multiplex wood with a bakelite surface. Good stuff. The setup is of course only a 'mock-up'. But good enough to test the assembly.
