For the last 20+ years, Kevin has been present at every step along my DIY audio journey. When I first contacted him, intrigued by the use of transformers within the audio signal, my conception of an online DIY store was that you choose, you buy, and then you live up (and down) with your parts and design. After all these years, parts and transformers ended up being just a tiny fraction of what Kevin has provided me with.
I knew just about nothing, and Kevin has answered litterally hundredths of questions and emails that I have shared with him. Once in a while we would have hour long calls, where it seemed that time didn't matter to him or that it had stopped altogether. He had that rare quality of taking the time and sharing his infinite insights.
His tone on DIY audio forums was always delicate, open minded, and spirited. He was eager to learn from others, and would never criticise other peoples' approaches if only to stay that, to his ears, some experiments fared better than others. To this day, I often go back to one of his multiple posts to further understand the way he went about many questions ...including of course transformrer connexion options.
Kevin orginally studied plant physiology, and the way he transcended knowledge and experience in tube audio design is just impressive. He once told me that, at some point, tube audio passion took over the rest. When his mother passed just a few years ago, he told me that he wanted to use the rest of his life to make good for the ones he loved and for others that life would bring across his path. It seems to me that it's precisely what he had already been doing forever.
One of my greatest regrets is to have missed Audio Sunday School, for distance sake. Kevin had a great bond with and esteem for his friends, near and far. I offer my best thoughts and friendship to the ones I briefly encountered, Trent, Jeff, and my words of courage to Kiyomi. Powering up our amps certainly will always bear Kevin's spirit.
