OTL schematic

Harvey "Gizmo" Rosenberg's  N.Y.A.L. OTL works.

Of course we all know Julius Futterman, the inventor of the OTL amplifier. And of course we also know the person who started the first production of those, it was HARVEY ROSENBERG who called himself Dr. Gizmo.

When I think about the way HARVEY ROSENBERG was scammed on the Audio Asylum Forum, and about they way a bunch of unmature moderators let this go on, I get this feeling what a good Internet Forum is not supposed to be. We had just started sponsoring the forum, and we stopped with it quickly again. This was one of the worst examples of bad moderation I have ever seen.

Anyway, this is not what the article is about... The article is about the works of Harvey Rosenberg.
