Re: The rack is Back?! Maybe not for everyone, but at least for me !
about tube preamps.. they are here all the time, real built and durable.. not those pcb+processors garbage types.. they have 0 value it is actually a shooting in his own legs to go this route, but they will realise after some years what a fail this is..IMO
