Hi John, Michael George here. It was brought to my attention (by Mike Sonleitner) that you had asked when I worked for Pacific Stereo. Sorry, I stopped checking that message thread. I worked from August 24, 1974 until May of '85. My last position was service manager at LS central service in Anaheim from '80 to '85. I worked for Phil Takaya. I remember your name... I probably still have some paper work with your name on it. I saved some of the reference material I had accumulated over the years. I'm still living on Orange county CA. I just recently gave away my parent's Calibre 225 and cassette deck to a co-worker. They still work though the cassette had to have a new belt and the idlers are getting a bit gummy. Regards, Mike George
