Our Background

Deepgroove.biz and deepgroove1.com ebay names just_erica and deepgroove1

​

When I was young, I did not mesh well with people, but I understood machinery

Throughout the years, countless hours were spent building Legos and then taking apart, fixing various machinery. and listening to my dad’s zenith tube radio

It all changed when I discovered MJ Magazine and Sound Practices, at Barnes&Noble, I really enjoyed the artistic wiring of the Japanese Tube amps and simplicity of Single ended

​

I met Mike Lafevre in 1991, Jon Baier Bill Petrowski helped me out quite a bit

​

I have always enjoyed the beauty of machines and Japanese amps with creative wiring

Since then, I have been scratch building tube amps on and off for 30 years, I am always learning and love many different flavors of sound various topographies of different configurations, In short, I can’t say there is a favorite amp or configuration

For me I really enjoy see the work of so many talented builders in the community it has been a pleasure

​

I signed up for Ebay deepgroove1 in 1998, over 20+ years I have sold thousands of different products audio accessories, cnc controllers motors,  cnc mills, lathes and routers since 1998,  back when Ebay was kinder and gentler you could make a lot of money

​

I sold for A.J. Conti at Basis Audio would move his 1400 series table trade ins through me

​

Mike Lafevre at Magnequest, also loved his hobbies, I sold off quite a few ¼ rc cars for him, tube amps and he also had me sell off most of his dead stock Brooklyn Transformer Line that were not moving, plus quite a few overseas customers had me ship transformers to them

​

In 2016 we designed our own circuit board and enclosure for the famous intact audio auto-formers, since I traded quite a few cnc machines to Dave slagle for product

​

In 2015 the private school I was teaching at closed Ebay slowed way down and I currently enjoy my life, building audio gear 

​

FYI I am currently running 3 systems, I love music
