Version – September 2003

~ To get in touch with us, use the first four letters of the word information, at, and then performanceandmedia which is followed by the first three letters of competition. Get it? Well, such precautions are – alas - necessary these days ~ 

“Wow!  That has to be the best single page of links I've seen in 7 years on the net.”

- Duncan Munr

  Arts and Media Home Page 

Tubes for Sale

This UK based site contains many useful audio links, and favours the creative DIY constructor who wants to save money, or simply build something original. Some things, like cables, are fairly simple. Others like tube amps are difficult but rewarding and need to be built and used with caution because of the high voltages they contain. The various links should hopefully interest both the novice and the enthusiast.
