My heart goes out to Tomas, a singular amp builder and spirit that shall never be forgotten in this hobby. I just discovered about his passing today, 6 weeks after it happened. And let's just say it's been difficult to continue the day.
Just checked my PMs I was having with him and the last one I got was dated February 18th, apparently 10 days before he died. Could it be I have the last message he ever sent anybody on Head-Fi? We were talking about upgrading the audio signal path wires for my amp I sent back, with a special new cable design I had shipped to him. Tomas did seem quite distressed in months prior, and he couldn't come up with a timeframe for my amp repair.
And what about 2359glenn, has he crossed over as well? I didn't see anything from him since early 2021 when he gave me a refund for not being able to work with a disease.
Interestingly my solid state integrated amp is sounding mighty fine right now anyway, with some internal tweaks and system hacks I've done recently. Let us not forget, and find some way to carry on his legacy.
