Sold: Radio Craftsmen C500A KT66 mono blocks. These were designed by the famous Sidney Smith and were precursors of the Marantz 8.

Great sounding amps but I was not using them. Sold to someone who really wanted them.


I became accustomed to playing my vintage SS. Sony 1120A amp or Sansui 4000 receiver.

I kept the Grommes 24PG EL84 integrated.



A must for any Bill Evans fan.

Hell, I should just sell the Vandy's and the Adcoms and build Billfort's cabinets for my new to me Altec 604Es and see how my '57 Maggotboxes sound through them...hmmmm. Decisions, decisions.

I wonder if Bluestreak still hates me?

I know I do! Those 604s are one of my favorites. Have you heard a well setup pair? Actually, I think you need to keep both, since they do have a different sound IMHO. I've been searching for Acoustats or Quads at the right price and in the right place for several years. You were fortunate to come across those 604s.

Thanks for the heads up. I have an ordinary JVC which I love.

A little live Mountain... Twin Peaks. That guy Felix Papalardi was a hell of a bassist.
