RIP Hifi Wigwam

Who was the guy down plymouth way that used to get a working amp and manage to completely obliterate it via his DIY improvements. Ask questions why it doesn’t work and then have tantrums when everyone called him a dangerous kamikaze twat.

Is he dead from an electric shock yet?

To be fair, there are some memorably cunty cunts on the roster, some are hard to forget, many are hard to forgive…

That might have been Technobear - he was a meltdown merchant in quite a number of senses.

Did he take Adam on as an apprentice?

Young- ish Aussie guy? Can’t remember his user name…

Random thought: the company is up to date with its filings at the moment but if that stops when the company is abandoned then technically Charlie boy would own the WAM.

Was he in IT? I was working for HP at the time and I remember a couple of others were although I didn’t know any of them personally.

Title needs an add on: Our favorite flamings.

The brain-damaged spiritus-in-machina

Joined the Wam in 2010. From memory I think I was looking for a pair of speakers in the classifieds. Not long after I went to my first bakeoff, at Gregg Catcando’s. And despite meeting both Sodders & Rabski at this event, it didn’t put me off!

Been fortunate to meet some great friends through that forum, for which I’ll always be grateful.

I joined the Wam in 2011 on the suggestion of Mike Yoda when i fixed his phono stage, so its all his fault. It was all great fun until the night of the long knives, then just became another audio forum

Yes, that’s the guy I mean. He was intense! And that’s something coming from me. :rofl:

I think it was Frank.

He became a nightmare until I found out he’d been done for benefit fraud, and PMd him my findings. Calmed him right down.

I had happily forgotten the existence of this individual. I’ll pop my therapy invoice in the post.
