No
Bull. Hold the Winkle.
Marlow,
NH (pop. 601) has many claims to fame. In previous catalogs, we’ve
told you about the black flies so big they can devour a flatlander
in a single bite. And about the snowdrifts so big that Santa can’t
deliver until May. But one of Marlow’s most impressive claims
to fame is that it’s home to many magnificent moose that
can be found wandering our wetlands in all kinds of weather.
If you ever
find yourself travelling through northern New England during early
summer, you should know that the best time to spot one of our
not-so-furry friends is in the early morning. Often folks will
get up before the crack of dawn, smear bug- repellent over every
inch of their bodies and then head out to the nearest bog, where
they get devoured by mosquitoes who obviously can’t read
the label on the bug spray. But it all proves to be worth it when
a few
moose stroll casually out of the woods and start ruminating...on
horsetails, pond-weed, grass, lichen, and just about any vegetable
matter that’s available. They also use their
bottom lip to strip bark and leaves off tasty little willows and
poplars.
By the way—next time you need a good piece of trivia—that
flap of skin hanging down from the neck of a moose, below that
lower lip, is called a “bell” or “dewlap.”
Why Are We Telling You All This Stuff?
Because
we want you to know that we manufacture the best jacks and patchbays
in the business up here in southwestern New Hampshire, in a huge
(but humble) clapboarded home on the banks of the Ashuelot River.
It’s a place where the moose run free, the humans are pretty
frisky themselves, and, most importantly, where personal service
is still a way of life. After all, when it comes to your audio,
video, or digital signals, it really helps when you can work directly
with folks you can really connect with. And if you can’t
trust someone who goes moose-watching before breakfast who can
you trust? It’s no contest! Moose watchers win hooves down!
We’ve
been leaders in this business for over fifty years, when our founder
moved up here to start manufacturing super-reliable high-end audio
patchbays. Ever since then, we’ve been the company audio
and video professionals turn to, whether they need one or hundreds
of patchbays, on time, on budget, and on spec.
We’ve been known to get a little wired—just ask.
Whether
you’re dealing with audio, video, or digital patchbays, pre-wired
or au naturel, give us a call to talk about your application...
and your deadlines. We have standard MAXI (1/4” Long-Frame)
and MINI (Bantam) patchbays ready to ship as fast as you can say
Alces Alces (that’s Latin for moose). We also manufacture
an exclusive line of SKINI patchbays that were developed for installations
where space is at a real premium. They use traditional 1/4”
jacks but can fit up to 32 in a row.
Any of these
patchbays can be supplied ready to wire, or prewired to just about
anything—including QCP, EDAC, Cannon, AMP, and Krone connectors—just
about
any which way you could possibly want.
Best of all, since we manufacture virtually everything, right
down to our Audio-Line jacks, here in the wild blue yonder of
Marlow, NH, we can deliver custom panels just about as fast as
off-the-shelf. If it’s a custom application, we can work
with you to explore multiple options and determine the very best
solution for your application. But whether it’s standard
or custom, single units or multiple racks of them, our unbeatable
combination of efficiency, high standards, years of experience,
and good humor means you just won’t find a better value.
So next time you need something of the audio, video, or digital
patchbay persuasion, think MOOSE, think MARLOW, think AUDIO ACCESSORIES!
