Hello, I was wondering if anyone had any contact information for Mark Porzilli? I have a tube CD player that he built and need to find out which tubes it takes? Or if anyone on here is familiar with Melos tube gear!
 
Welcome to the forum, thank you for joining.

Can you open up your player and look at the tubes?

Thank you! I will open it up tonight and update with a few pictures. The tubes are missing from the unit. It was my father's and I would love to add it in my line up.
 
Shadowfax,

My unit is quite a bit older than the one in your link. My unit is 2 pieces one being the transport and the other being a tube D/A converter. And mine is a CD only. I believe it was built around 1988 or so. Are those the same people from the original company on Facebook? I know they have tried to bring the company back a few times in the last 30 or so years.
 
Lyons 791,

Do not despair. I have an indirect contact for Mark. Post all the info you have including pictures. I will forward it for you.

That is great thank you! Do you have an email that I can send the pictures and info to? Being that I am new on here I can not post pictures or private messages yet.
 
I can help facilitate contact between you guys if necessary. Just let me know if you have any problems.

Ok thank you! I would love to put some pictures up this has to be an early piece in Melos 20 year span. The serial number is a sticker and the circuit boards looked to be hand etched and no silk screening or labeling of the components for a schematic diagram. And I found a date of Sept 1987 on the transport.
