Default Germanium Hi-Fi amp ??

does anyone still use germanium transistor amps - anywhere ?


Just by coincidence used one yesterday. A couple of ancient Henry's radio
kits which I put in a case with a rudimentary pre-amp many years ago. Only
10 watts per channel. The sort of thing you could leave lying around and
wouldn't get nicked. ;-)

Never did any measurements on it - but it sounded OK for the things it got
used for.
