    R.I.P. Jud Barber (Joule Electra)

    Just read that Jud passed away several weeks ago.
    He produced some innovative and excellent sounding gear.
    Currently using his LA150 MKII Signature Plus preamp and it is one of the most full range and dynamic preamps that I have heard.
    May he rest in peace.

    RIP Jud. The LA100 graced my system back in the early '90s then I upgraded to a 150. They were a departure from CJ and ARC and to my ears Jud's gear was among the best sounding anywhere. I never got around to owning his OTL amps but i heard them on a few occasions they were equally lust-worthy.
