Citation from the book "Valve and Transistor Audio Amplifiers", page 195, by John Linsley Hood: "...At this point, may I introduce Fingal, my Siamese cat, who had a great liking for Bach organ music, and would climb onto my lap, and purr contentedly whenever I played one of his favourite pieces from gramophone record. If I had made any change in the reproduction system he would be aware of this, and signify his awareness by the angle or alertness of his ears. If, after a minute or two, he was prepared to accept the change he would settle down to (apparently) enjoy the music. On one occasion I was lent, for lecture purposes, an expensive and impeccably specified Hi-Fi amplifier. As soon as I began to play music through this new system Fingal leapt from my lap and fled from the room. Actually, I agreed with his judgement."
