I generally post over at gearslutz but I just wanted to let everyone know how great of an experience I had with Ceriatone (Pronounced cherry-a-tone interestingly enough )

I was sent to Malaysia for 3 weeks on a business trip and took the opportunity to go check out Ceriatone while I was there. Nik was amazingly hospitable and had me to his facility a couple times. He shared a ton of information on how to put amps together and let me observe his staff as they worked.

I was impressed to say the least. Nik's employees were meticulous, hard working, and happy. The amp's he let me test sounded amazing, and were extremely well built (and I have had about everything out there at least once)

I had never owned a Ceriatone amp before and had only tried one prior to visiting (a Plexi my cousin bought which sounded great!!). I left Malaysia with a Overtone HRM kit that I am currently working on.

Anyway, Nik is a great guy that takes great pride in what he does, and knows his stuff (I assume his Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering helps with that He uses excellent parts in his amps, some that are custom made just for him.

My trip to Malaysia was fabulous and I loved the culture, food, and work ethic. In 3 weeks I did not hear one person talk negatively about another, and was treated as a guest by everyone I encountered. Don't be fooled by internet chatter that is fueled by uninformed stereotypes at best. With that said, I did come home with a suitcase of "Armani" ties but there is a lot more to Malaysia than "Petaling Street".

I would love to see the Ceriatone facility, and talk to the OCD character who does all the heater wiring. My builds/lead dress are pretty good, but I want to meet the guy/gal that wires those heaters.....
You Lucky Bastard.........!!!
