I would like to start with my thanks to all our staff, particularly
Ruben Tilgner,who created the TRANSIENTDESIGNER. The importance
of their exceptional qualification and talents cannot be overesti-
mated.
Our products are often tested and compared in many publica-
tions, as well as by our customers themselves, and constantly
attract praise for the high standard of audio performance they
achieve.I would like to pass on this broad appreciation to those,
who deserve it - my excellent colleagues.
