I was surprised to learn that Operadio goes back to 1922!
But the amp I had was circa 1947.
They used to make outrageous PA speakers, and giant tube PA heads....
Besides making the "first" portable radio receivers.

These guys were the true pioneers of pro sound. The amps they built ate mesa boogies for breakfast.
(these amps grind like a chain saw on steroids)
Infinite sustain, the volume goes to 20.
(That's 10 more, isn't it?)
