# Tube Porn Video... - Site: Analog Industries - Author: Chris Randall - Date: 2006-04-05 - URL: https://analogindustries.com/2006/04/tube-porn-video/ A short movie made by Dave Pape about [Theo Argiriadis](http://www.tube-electronics.co.uk/), a British tube effect builder guy. Says Dave: _His workshop sublimates eccentric retro gear porn into a higher form, something like gynaecological valve art - and after much pestering from me, he agreed to assemble a little collection of units he's made over the past few years for me to film._ I really want to hang out with this guy. He not only knows his business, but has really good hair. Check out [this distortion box](https://analogindustries.com/images/blog/aae_distort_box.jpg) he made for Dave. Hit up his website for more info, and pay special attention to that stereo spring 'verb / valve amp. That is a thing of beauty. ## Comments (6) **characterstudios** (2006-04-05): The flashplayer with the movie doesn't seem to load in the blog... Have the latest version of flash installed, and tried it on 3 PCs. Just to let you know. Greetz, Characterstudios **characterstudios** (2006-04-05): Ah, ignore my previous post please! youtube seems to be down at the moment... Greetz, Characterstudios **inteliko** (2006-04-05): If virtual pages could get stuck together.... **kokoon** (2006-04-06): that's MADNESS! this guy is so cool and oh the boxes he makes! **RexRhino** (2006-04-06): Does anyone here use tube equipment? I would be too frightened, myself... tubes are fragile, and expensive, and a lot are hard to find. I guess that may be part of the attraction, creating something that an ordinary person would not be able to create... but I would be too worried to be creative. **Chris Randall** (2006-04-07): Actually, in 20-odd years of professional musicianship, I've found that good tube gear (as opposed to the Behringer Tube-O-Fax Pro 3000) is generally tougher and cleaner sounding than its solid-state sibling. I don't know if it's because tube gear is generally over-engineered, or what, but I just report the facts as I see 'em. -CR
