Actually called "Song of Reproduction", gems include:
"all the highest notes, wther sharp or flat; though my ear can't
hear as high as that, still I ought to please any passing bat"
"I see you've got your negative feedback coupled in with
your push-pull input-output. Take that across though your
something-I-can't-catch pickup to your tweeter if you're modding more
than 8 you're going to get wow on your top. Try to bring that down
through your pre-amp rumble filter to your woofer. What'll you get?
FLUTTER ON YOUR BOTTOM!"
"With the tone control, at a single touch, Bel canto sounds like
double Dutch. The I never did care for music much, it;s the High
Fidelity."
