Mr. Whell...
I bought the Adcom GFA-545 that Mike donated to the auction to benefit opt80's family. I went to his house, to pick it up, where I had the pleasure of meeting the lovely Mrs. Whell, and the tiny, adorable twin Whell girls. The elder Whell daughter was napping, after a busy afternoon. Mike looked like he was about ready for a nap, too.
The amp is now playing, next to me, from the CR-2020 pre-outs. Sounds great, but I will have to wait until tomorrow to really flex its muscles. Mike warned about condition 'problems'. He overstated the significance of the scratched face, which will be touched up, forthwith, or maybe, fifthwith.
Thanks, Mike, for your generous donation, and introducing me to your lovely family. I wish you much happiness.
