[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 139628, member: 126"] Re: MG and IP theft I have two TS-1s sitting around and one of them is broken....:-( Some of the parts in there are no longer made or could be hard to get. I'd love to design a modern TS-1 using digital technology but it's against my religion to design any product that could be replaced by a smart phone app. :-) [edit] FWIW one of my old employees from Loftech days has a repair service outside Hartford, CT... He "might" be able to fix it if it's something simple. Larry Smetana at AccuTech Audio 860-290-8979. He charges $80/hr so maybe look for a smart phone app. :-) [/edit] I have never tried to use one, but I have experienced digital products where the digital software designers were better with algorithms than user interfaces.
