Introduction

I was born in the Netherlands in the year 1955 and my audio interests began around 1970. After graduating from Technical University (HTS) in 1977, the majority of my career consists of being an independent technical engineer, designing and manufacturing sophisticated and advanced audio equipment for the professional audio market.

I also developed an interest in professional "state-of-the-art" equipment and technologies from the 20th century from companies such as EMT, Neumann, Nagra Kudelski, Telefunken, Stellavox and more. My greatest personal passion is collecting, restoring and using professional studio turntables from EMT, especially the "built for a lifetime" models EMT 927 and EMT 930.

One result of this passion is re-manufacturing of the EMT 139st b stereo phono tube equalizer amplifier. This is hand-built, limited edition series for EMT around the world.
