I'm joe.
This was a prototype MK I built by Sony-San himself. Look at it funny and it'd take your eyes out with its laser.
What had you in mind ?
I don't know if I would describe myself as the man, on TDA1541...I like the sound of that chip set, always did and suspect I always will, and I have a few TDA 1541 CD players, but I would not say I was an expert on the technical side of things.
