CJ's True work of Art, it's a passion nothing else!

What’s different about the latest model?

A: Better RCA connectors
B: Better tube sockets
C: Better PCB isolation
D: Better layout of signal tracings
E: Better Pwr supply design
F: Mosfets are not in the signal path.
G: Critical parts evaluation for sonic attributes in critical locations

Yes very true!
If you look closely maties... you'll notice a slightly silver type of finish on the SE connections of the ART88. These are actually a Rhodium plated flash, which is what it's called, superb finish!

Most do gold plating or silver plating, JF takes that to a whole other level with a Rhodium finish. That's quite pricey as it is! Like I said before, there are no compromises at this level and yet he manages to push his own boundaries. A true legend!
Woof! RJ

Hmmm. Rhodium is kryptonite to Marty.

When Marty visits me he's going to waive his rhodium detector around, and if he gets any meter deflection, he's going to call in a chopper for immediate extraction.

Same with Fulsom.

Greetings from down unda. Just checking in to all tooob fans. Topsy-turvy things are happening here, now up state in Qld (Queensland) and boarding Nsw, there's a nasty cyclone kicking in, Alfred! So keep safe all, and be vigilant.

In the meantime, keep those tubes glowing, the tooons are fine!
Woof! RJ

WOOF! WOOF!

Don't let those CJ tubes get twisted up in that cyclone!

Ha, G'day Ron.

Just wanted to reach out to few of our good mates. Two who are actually members on WBF, both live in Qld state (Tony & Graz- our Apogee specialist). Cyclone Alfred is going to hit most of Sth East parts of Queensland and the NSW border, particularly Lismore, which has experienced extensive flooding during major floods they had recently.

Also a very good mate of mine, in fact my best mate (we were both in the same Uni in the US since 1994) he also lives up Qld Brisbane. Brizzy is in lockdown at the moment, with many schools and places closed.

So just wanted to say that we're thinking of them during these difficult times of anxiety and the unknown, that's all.

Other than that, yes the tooons are fine, especially on CJ!
Cheers mate, RJ
