My favorite Audiophile magazine quote/story concerns Mission equipment and it comes from JA: (John Atkinson, Stereophile's editor)
It involves Kraftwerk's "Electric Cafe" (possibly), a set of mission Argonauts, and a pair of Mission mono-block power amps, with an outboard power supply additional box.
It goes like this:
"...Beer followed beer...then we switched to scotch...
..Then....I broke them."
JA was cranked, and so was the system. up...and Up..and UP..went the volume...And he broke them.
One of the funniest stories in audiophile print.
It has become a standard 'crank it up, dude!' story.
As a matter of fact, it's just about to become my signature!
I, and a few of my audiophile friends think of that line, everytime we get a few beers in us and start cranking the tunes. And we start giggling.
