I opened up my latest issue of Stereophile, came to page 40, and almost lost my lunch. There between a Micro Stack and their new Millett Hybrid tube amp is a larger than life picture of.......

Tyll!!! In all of his Hawaiin shirt glory.

I sure hope the products can sell themselves.

At least he has had his teeth fixed, and a reasonable haircut...
And minus about 20 lbs...

I do remember, and you're right. This should be entitled "Faux Pas Light."

Tyll is sharp enough to have done some research about markets before doing these scary ads. Hard to believe........

I dunno... I'm a newbie and haven't seen the new Stereophile yet, but I can imagine how bad this current one is.

I imagine they're gonna have to stick a Micro Stack up between "Tube Breast Girl"'s assets to make up for this one...

Best,

The sad thing is Tyll is probably in better shape than half of that ads target market.

Anyone mind if I put my vote in to see the lot of 'em? I've never seen any of these HeadRoom ads, and could use a laugh. Especially considering the state of my wallet... It's a sad affair...
