Homebrewer - Ding R.

Homebrewer - inspired by Sound Practices!

It has been a while since I saw my good friend Ding R. in Staten Island, NY. Hanging out at his listening room and evaluating his or my projects was part of my routine every time I had a gig in NYC while I was still based in the USA.

A few of his recent projects...

Siemens Bayern drivers in open baffles

Altec 805 horn + 291 + 515

Gray 103s tonearm on a TD124

Ding at the attic in '09...see you again soon!
