fred, haven't you read their specs ??
they have solved this any many more things. they use a "noise wall".
which is really clever, because noise can't go through walls! and the
tube combines analog warmth with digital technology, and they did some
really brilliant stuff to their power supply which not only drives the
tube but also heals warts, keeps the weather nice during evening
barbecues and attracts girls.
;)
seriously, i think this is the greatest pile of horseshit the world has
seen so far.
if some alien asked me if this were my species, i'd claim i just got
stuck here...
