Jackson Pollock’s hi-fi

Jackson Pollock’s Speaker-in-a-closet was speckled with paint like one of his paintings. He used a nice loud Bogen DB-20 as his amplifier.

I have a Bogen db-20 (garage sale find). I have only fired it up once, and it sounded great. When I get my house on the Maine coast, I’ll find a good spot for it with one of my Dad’s turntables. I might even speckle the speaker cabinet like Jackson Pollock.

“Pollock loved to play his hi-fi really loud, especially when Krasner was out of the house. Some things never change.”
