Elekit Tube Amplifier

Posted by Alex





This gorgeous piece of hardware is the Elekit Tube Amplifier, designed by Koichi Futatsumata. I’ve always been obsessed with tube amps but I’ve never seen one look this good. Of course, it would look best if the rest of your furniture is of a similar spec — which is not the case for me — but maybe this is so amazing that it can elevate even the most drab of living spaces with its sexy minimalism. The only problem is that I want to buy it right now and it appears to be impossible. I find way too many concept pieces that look amazing but never find their way into the marketplace. At least this one looks like it might eventually be for sale. (But by then Apple may have released their “newest creation” and I won’t have any money left…)

ALEX – I sure hope you get this message…and share with the fellas – Jakub/Hansen. You guys need to give a shout out to Emancipator…by far one of the more brilliant multi-instrumentalists/producers out there today. After being kept to Japan tours for over a year he recently was picked up by 1320. His first album was so clean…and just released his second today. Check it out and please share your thoughts with this blog and it’s adamant followers. Much obliged!!

In the human process of continuous self-reflection, for photovoltaic power generation that was so clean and direct forms of energy have become more cordial, china-solarwaterheaters.com not only in space applications, in many areas also show off their capabilities.
