Made someone
very happy today ^^
Very good friend and professional colleague, we go back many decades, respect and love him. He's better than me but don't let him know!
Back in the early '90s, let us say my employment was such that i had me a bit of an access in all STAX products.
You've probably guessed where this is going, yes, this led to my acquiring an Ωmega, which at the time i think it went for 3million and 300thousand drachmas?
Crazy money. 3,3 million of your local currency, lol
He was a bit envious, i knew. And i actually lent it to him for many months, something which i never do with electrostats, but.. least i could do.
Fast forward to today, when my SRX-9000 arrived (thank you bro for hiding it from my wife).
Minus a sliiight re-interpretive tendency which can be overcome if your know your electronics (i don't do software alchemies or "EQ"), i think it's a worthy successor to the original mesh Ωμεga; or age has robbed me of my hearing, lol
Knew he was in this evening, so drove over with the original Ωmega gift wrapped and rang the bell!
Fast foward it a few minutes and he was close to **** himself
Took a few decades, but now he has it!
(not an easy gift to make, not for a grumpy, self-centered old fart like me, but.. the look on his face, i'd do it again)
And sorry for spamming, good w/end to you all.
