“Science can amuse and fascinate us all, but it is engineering that changes the world”
Isaac Asimov
In the above picture I’m behind Lars Urlih’s 2008 Tama Starclassic drum set. He played this drum kit during Metallica’s 2008-10 World Magnetic tour in support of their album Death Magnetic.
Hi, I’m Piotr
I’m an electronics design engineer based in Glasgow, Scotland. Throughout my career, I’ve designed cutting-edge electronic products for a wide range of industries. With nearly 40 years of experience, I’ve witnessed remarkable technological progress in the field of electronics—advancements that I now routinely incorporate into my designs.
One thing, however, has remained constant: my fascination with vintage audio recording technology. In my spare time, I enjoy restoring classic audio equipment, with a particular focus on reel-to-reel tape recorders and cassette decks. Over the years, I’ve brought many of these machines back to life.
I don’t limit myself to tape equipment, though — amplifiers (both solid-state and vacuum tube), receivers, tuners, equalizers, record players, and CD players all find their way onto my workbench. If it was built to play or record music, I can repair it.
I have deep respect for the engineers of past generations—their designs are often nothing short of brilliant. It’s a privilege to preserve their craftsmanship and ensure this remarkable equipment continue to be enjoyed for years to come.
If you have any Hi-Fi gear in need of repair, please contact me — I’d be happy to help.
