BWilliamson	Re: Trainwreck amps Breakdown as I know it: Alessandro: Thought I heard long ago he was one of KF prodigies or something like that. Can't say for sure, but his Bloodhound model is similiar to an Express topology. Kendrick: Him and Weber were friends and got together and had Kendrick do the Climax amplifier based on a KF design. Heard that didn't go well for KF. K&M[Two Rock]: No clue as where they got thier information from, didn't somebody post on here that they bought 50 OT's from Pacific that KF designed for his Express before he got wind of it and shut down that leak. Bruno: Thought I read on his website long ago that KF talked him thru the Express circuit piece by piece on the telephone. Komet: KF's latest partnership with Hogy yielded the Komet which owes it's heritage to the Express topology with some changes. Shows how versitile the circuit can be. Callaham: Copied Little Orphan Annie as the story goes, and they clone away. Recall KF got his hands on one and said it was horrible, even tried his OT in on and said it was still horrible.
