It's the same Jim Fosgate who started the company which eventually became Rockford Fosgate, he's no longer associated with the company.

oh yes it is...

 

 

I wonder how the crossfeed will perform compared to, say, a phonitor..

A friend who is a Fosgate dealer confirmed that the projected price should be around $1500, time to start saving the pennies.... rolleyes.gif

"...Combining a tube input stage with a solid-state output, it will include a loudness control, spatial enhancement circuit, and built-in DAC..."

 

Why?

 

Maybe I'm reading this wrong. Is it de facto loudness controll and spatial enhancement - or is it "you can tune the sound by tube rolling"?

no, the "loundness control" (which is basically a bass boost) and the "spatial enhancement" circuit can both be bypassed.
