Beo, I don't have a clue what you are talking about, but that video is blocked in the USA?Beosystem10 said:Valves man, expensive ones. PX4s were used as output pairs in many of the best home audio devices from the 1930s onwards.
Here's what they look like and they're worth more on their own than the value of the radiogram is in its present, fully working condition:
HiFi snobs (audiophools) build entire amps around a pair of these in the mistaken belief that they sound better (than modern valves like the ECL86), fortunately the folks' radiogram has its originals. Fortunately because new ones cost around £800 EACH!
On the late, great Sir Jimmy, country music legend and unfeasibly tall, thin man: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Shand
And where Fifty Cent comes into it, scoring 21st century chart success with a sampled Scottish country tune written by Sir Jimmy:

That's strange, considering that Curtis James Jackson III was born and raised in the United States, in Queens, New York City according to Wikipaedia. If you look the tune up on GTunes or Google Play it's available to hear/download on both. Not everyone's taste I know, but he kicked off his most recent set at Edinburgh Uni (where the man who later became 50 Cent studied classics and anthropology as a student, hence his popularity over here) with his version of Sir Jimmy's signature tune and, having won the crowd's absolute respect for having the balls to do that, went on to give us some of his own material.
