Welcome to the DaviSound "NEWS UPDATES" Page!
NEWS UPDATE ... July 12, 2010 ... August 29, 2010 "Happy 94th Birthday 'Mama Maggie' [Maa] Davis"
" DaviSound ... DaviSpanning Four Decades ! "
Yet another decade rolled around as of this June, 2010 and yet another busy year continues here during, this, our 40th anniversary year (June 1970 - June 2010)!
In conjunction with this 40th anniversary, we are featuring one of our "clean dozen" standard Tool Boxes ©™ here on our News Updates section each month for twelve months! These will NOT be presented in numerical order but in random fashion so you will need to check each month to see what is being featured. This monthly "feature" will call attention to the special attributes of each piece as well as rememberances about the origin of each Tool Box.
The last remaining lineup addition, the TB-9 will be included at some point as will that revised TB-1 and the DUAL version option of the TB-7, the TB-7D. Our "DaviSource" microphones will also be included at some point when we are simultyaneoulsy featuring one of our "Mic-All" preamp Tool Box editions We are also working on a long ongoing project that combines the stages of several standard Tool Boxes in a unique new 3 RU "WG" combination package, as suggested by a longtime client, which we will be introducing as the commemorative TB-40!
NOW YOU SEE HIM ... NOW YOU DON'T! ...
This month I decided to give you a break from the "Merlin Magician" character/routine. The "novelty" was surely wearing off, plus, I discovered that Merlin was now "speaking" in typical monotone computer gibberish and, at least on my machine, with a female voice no less ... all pretty ludicrous as a representative of DaviSound! So, my apologies for making you repeat visitors endure that especially since my update has been delayed for a couple of weeks! I decided to just make Merlin, magically, disappear for awhile!
THIS MONTH WE FEATURE OUR UNIQUE LABORATORY REFERENCE MONITOR AMPLIFIERS, THE TB-8 "DAVISURE" CONTROL ROOM MONITOR AMP AND OUR, MOST UNIQUE, TB-8SE, NOW ALL DISCREET, FULL CLASS A, SINGLE-ENDED, 1 WATT, "DAVISOLIDSINGLE" AMPLIFIER.
IT IS ALSO A GOOD TIME TO CALL ATTENTION TO OUR INFORMATIVE, ON-LINE MANUALS WHICH WE PUBLISH, ON-LINE, FOR ALL OF OUR "CLEAN DOZEN" TOOL BOXES. THIS IS BECAUSE OUR TB-8 ON LINE MANUAL HAS RECEIVED A BIT OF ACCLAIM IN RECENT MONTHS AS BEING ONE OF THE MORE INFORMATIVE ARTICLES ANYWHERE ON AUDIO AMPLIFICATION IN GENERAL. I APPRECIATE THESE ACCLAIMS FROM READERS SINCE THAT WAS, OBVIOUSLY, THE REASON BEHIND THE EFFORT IN THE BEGINNING. I TRULY BELIEVE THAT THE MORE AN INQUIROR REALLY, ACTUALLY, KNOWS ABOUT AUDIO ELECTRONICS AND A PARTICULAR AUDIO REQUIREMENT, THEN THE MORE HE/SHE WILL APPRECIATE THE "TOOLS" PROVIDED BY DAVISOUND TO MEET THOSE REQUIREMENTS!
The DaviSound TB-8, "DaviSure" Lab Ref Studio Monitor Amplifier and the TB-8 SE "DaviSolidSingle"
I will simply refer you to the above link to learn more about our monitor amps and how they came about as that web page contains ALL the details. I will mention that we have had several inquiries from studio owners, broadcasters and several audiopiles regarding our monitor amplifiers lately which had something to do with my choosing them for this month's feature. You will also find one or two of these inquiries included on our recently updated FAQs web page.
Who gives a "tweet"?
It had to happen ...
I also, recently, received some inquiror email wanting to know if we were on, or going to be on, "Twitter" and "Facebook". The answer is NO and NO! My feeling is, why should I spend time fooling around on another "fad" website when I don't even have adequate time to devote to this site the way I used to and the way I would like to (and hope to be able to do again in the months ahead). If other folks with websites want to also jump on the "web within the web" bandwagon then SO BE IT. But, don't waste any "clicks" looking for DaviSound there.
THERE IS ONLY ONE, UNIQUE, DAVISOUND WEB PRESENCE JUST AS THERE IS ONLY ONE, UNIQUE, DAVISOUND!
Anything I have to say will always be found here, exclusively, in these pages and I truly thank those of you who frequent our website.
We continue to look forward to your frequent website visits throughout this ongoing 12 month, 40th anniversary period (June 2010 - June 2011) as we present these special, monthly features to call attention to the origin of our Tool Boxes along with other developing news which will include new photos of some of our long, on-going custom projects that will be culminating this year. These will include projects such as newly completed mixing consoles both solid state and all vacuum tube versions!
As I have been pointing out here for the past few months, I work mostly solo these days and I am STILL working LONG hours to get through the largest order backlog in our history. Albeit "slowly but surely", I am making progress on all fronts with every passing week.
Creating unique, hand-crafted, lifetime quality, heirloom pieces takes some time and there are never any shortcuts even during the best of scheduling circumstances! So, the sooner you place your order for your own special piece, and get it into the chronological work rotation ... the sooner you can expect to get your hands, eyes and ears around it!
There is nothing like having the appropriate tool in hand ( DaviSound Tool Box © ™ ) for the job at hand! And there is NOTHING ELSE like a DaviSound "TOOL BOX" anywhere else! If you have never experienced using/owning a DaviSound Tool Box, then you have just not yet lived the ultimate audio experience until you do!
To get your order into the queue for our current work rotation schedule ...
simply follow the order procedure outlined at ... ...
PRICES-TERMS-POLICIES
As always , I thank you for reading and for visiting the DaviSound website. I, personally, welcome all of your inquiries, thoughts and suggestions in email. Of course, especially ...
I ALWAYS WELCOME YOUR ORDERS AND THE OPPORTUNITIES TO GO TO WORK FOR YOU!
Thank you for joining in our continuing 40th anniversary celebration with us!
Sincerely,
Hayne Davis
