Harvey 'The Giz' Rosenberg woulda dug the Antares sound unheard.
Its heavily finned appearance creates instant kinship with
lovers of nekkid motorcycle engines that do away with the
plastiky wind-slip fairings to expose the innards for what they
are - manly men's hardware bristlin' in steel, iron and chrome.
Heaving the beast from the East out of its crate required more
manly man's fortitude. Lifting with your thighs rather than back
became mandatory lest one suffer lengthy MP3 fare on crappy
headphones in the infirmary. Consign all notions of wimpy SETs
to the orbituaries. The Antares VA320 is the Krell of tube land.
B-b-b-b-bad to the bone.  The name Antares goes back to the
Greek 'anti-ares' or 'Rival of Mars' which points at its fiery
red color, plainly visible as the 15th brightest star in our
skies, located in the Scorpius constellation and often mistaken
for the dimmer Mars. In Tarot, Scorpio is associated with the
16th trump card, the Lightning-Struck Tower
