Now there's a thought. Could any of the leading lights of the fifties and sixties, Peter Walker, Harold Leak, Arthur Radford, etc. have ever imagined what the hifi industry would turn into by our current era?

They could have imagined us having flying cars, conversational robots, holidays on Mars, but tube rollers and directional cables? Not a chance!

I think they'd have something very direct to say.
