Thanks guys. I decided it was time to go back to my roots and design and build products ranging from the affordable to more exotic designs. I also have a series of DHT amplifiers that have been in the design stage for some time now behind the scenes. I’m back where I belong.  :thumb:
Good for you.  Life is too short to not do what you're called to do.  :thumb:

PINK FLOYD

STARS CAN FRIGHTEN

Venue: October 26th, 1994 – Earl’s Court Exhibition Hall, London, England.

Media: 3 CD-R
Source: AUD
X-ref: "Complete Earls Court Volume XII".

Notes:

One from Earl's Court London shows, closing European leg of 1994 "The Division Bell" World Tour.
Complete recording from alternate source.

In contrary to Recorder 1 sourced bootlegs, this is unprocessed, raw rip.
Matter of fact, I’m not sure if f.ex. "Complete Earls Court Volume XII" is pure audio at all (very
low frequency, strange metalic sound)…
Here You won't have any questions... Sound quality is fantastic. Deep, sharp and well definied.
What is also important, audience is quiet, there are no screeming people near the taper.

Audience recorder 2. From very low generation tape. Revised copy (balanced and speed corrected).
Lineage: A2 Cass TDK D90s[Low gen]>AKAI Stereo Cassette Deck>SoundBlaster>CoolEditPro>PCM 44,1kHz 16bit WAV>SHN.

Show identification:
First set starts with „Astronomy Domine”. „Take It Back” and „Coming Back To Life” were performed
before „Sorrow”. Guy Pratt yelled [„...back to London...”] during „Run Like Hell”.

limited circulation) - this is the same material from the same source.

After a long hiatus while working for Purity Audio Design, I am no longer associated with Purity. Response Audio has re-emerged and is now back building custom designed versions of our products.
Products that will remain in the lineup but now under the Response Audio umbrella.

1- Spirit Class A tube linestage — for pairing with any of our amplifiers or yours
2- Spirit Hybrid GaN FET amplifier (while inventory last)
3- Harmonia v4 DHT output stage/preamplifier

Coming soon
- Master DHT preamplifier
- Master DHT Hybrid. 200/300 watt GaN FET output stage with 300B input stage
- Master DHT amplifiers 45/2A3 and 300B

The new Response Audio wed site is in process of being build and will go live this weekend. I will continue to build the site over the next few weeks.
Further details to follow.
