Flying Mole CA-S10 integrated amplifier

The naming of audio companies is a tricky business. Ideally, the name should be distinctive, so that people will remember it, and descriptive of the products. However, given the proliferation of audio manufacturers, it's getting more and more difficult to come up with a name that fulfills these criteria, and some names are similar enough to lead to confusion. In one of my show-report blog entries from the 2007 Consumer Electronics Show, instead of correctly listing a company name as Divergent Technologies, I called it Definitive Technologies, which is the name of an another audio company—and was rightly chastised for it in a comment by a reader. I'll bet that no such confusion will occur in the case of Flying Mole Electronics. (As far as I know, there is no Flying Groundhog Electronics.)

I've long admired Vacuum Tube Logic's line of amplifiers and preamplifiers. Owners <A HREF="http://www.stereophile.com/interviews/153">Luke Manley</A> and his wife <A HREF="http://www.stereophile.com/interviews/607vtl">Bea Lam</A> routinely appear at the Consumer Electronics and Home Entertainment shows with luxurious, microprocessor-controlled tube gear, soothing new music, good-sounding rooms, and a friendly, unhurried manner. Their show setups are dialed in so well that I often find myself taking refuge there, sitting and listening for hours with other <I>Stereophile</I> writers.

Home Office Visit/Signals-Superfi.com

Chris Sommovigo, owner of Signals-Superfi, the high end distributor/Importer of the Continuum turntable invited me to an Open House he was staging for the Atlanta Audio Society this Sunday afternoon from 2-5pm. It was most gracious of him to invite me and I was all to eager to accept.

Two listening rooms were set up. One was with a Manley SteelHead driving either Boulder monoblocks or a 10watt/ch David Berning tube amp.
