Go ahead and say it. I'm curious.

$60 :lol:. Fully recapped, tuner re-aligned, pots and switches cleaned, and transistors checked. Bought it off of a guy on Audiokarma. Theyre going for over twice that or more on eBay unrestored.
 
That washer and dryer I want to see Chris... I'm looking at those and might buy them REAL SOON...

Washer is in and hooked up, it ROCKS the loudest part of it is the freakin drain gurgling which has nothing to do with the unit itself. Dryer will be in on the 5th you are welcome to come check the washer out in the mean time if you want :)

For sure I will... Let me know what day is good for you... I'm free anytime after 6pm...
 
I'd love to my dads old setup, for some reason I can't find a setup that rocked liked those old models

Thats because stuff was overbuilt back then. They used beefy power and output transformers as well as huge heatsinks, plus wattage wasnt rated RMS back then, it was true wattage :). This thing weighs 30lb, and its only 27WPC. Wattage back then was measured full power at 1KHz with a THD of 0.01%. Today, theyre measured at 10W 1KHz at 0.01% THD. A new Denon/Yamaha/Onkyo might be rated at 100WPC+, but if you crank it full tilt, youre gonna have some smoky voice coils :lol:.
