SHIPPING TO TIM IN TENNESSEE
  Our technician has completely gone through and 'Certified' this unit.

ü We have completely gone through this unit cleaning everything including all switches, controls and contacts. VERY time consuming to properly service this unit, especially the 8-track deck. Extensive cleaning of unit internally.

ü Internal fuses checked for continuity and correct values. No issues found, fortunately. We don't like seeing incorrect fuses having been installed in a unit as that could mean it had prior issues, or if a fuse value was 'increased' it could have allowed too much current through an 'ailing' circuit causing un-due / un-necessary damage.

ü Controls were 'flooded' w/ 'De-OxId' and are quiet

ü Entire transport was disassembled down to the chassis, and every mechanical part was cleaned of "varnished" lubes and re-lubed as well as the always at issue, Pinch Roller plunge assembly, re-lubed and reassembled (VERY DIFFICULT and TIME CONSUMING on this unit)

ü Main drive belt has been replaced with NEW for trouble free service (#42-1975 and counter belt replace with #030).

ü Capstan flywheel removed, cleaned, burnished and re-lubed prior to re-install. Entire transport and mechanism has been cleaned, re-lubed and de-magnetized.

ü Heads have been cleaned and de-magnetized and are in great shape.

ü Head alignment and azimuth at 125Hz, 1kHz and 10kHz adjusted for BOTH directions for 'peak performance' with O-Scope and w/ STL and TEAC MTT-257H calibration / alignment tapes. Both channels now even output.

ü Meters adjusted to even zero with symmetric with Volt meter, O-Scope and w/ STL and TEAC MTT-257H calibration / alignment tapes. Both channels now even output.

ü Both Internal playback amplifier channels adjusted with Volt meter, O-Scope and w/ STL and TEAC MTT-257H calibration / alignment tapes. Both channels now even output.

ü Meters adjusted to even zero with symmetric input with Volt meter, O-Scope and w/ STL and TEAC MTT-257H calibration / alignment tapes. Both channels now even output.

ü Both Internal Record amplifier channels adjusted with Volt meter, O-Scope and w/ STL and TEAC MTT-257H calibration / alignment tapes. Both channels now even output.

ü Record signal path contacts cleaned and burnished for static-free performance

ü Linear Record switch cleaned so no 'Motor Boating' effect

 ü Internal playback, meter and record level pots also adjusted w/ O-scope.

ü Following refurbishment, Speed checked with factory test tape to 100% accuracy! (meaning in this case, that our 1000Hz test tape plays back at 1000Hz on our Freq Counter Meter)

ü Deck 'sonically' checked for WOW and Flutter with no appreciable issues

ü Record Meters adjusted for 'even' readout and performance

ü Pinch Roller replaced with new, as following initial transport overhaul, we found that occasionally, on certain tapes the original / old pinch roller would 'crinkle / wrinkle' the tape

ü Floor noise of receiver tested @-60dBm. Floor noise of cassette deck measured with 'blank' Fuji tape at 1.75mVAC.

ü Tuner string checked for any fraying then re-tensioned to increase traction & relieve flywheel binding and re-centered pointer to correct dial position.

ü We aligned the tuner front-end for optimum AM & FM performance as older internal tuner components have always drifted on vintage gear over the years. VERY GOOD TUNER! FM sounds fantastic. AM is decent as well.

ü All dial, indicator & meter lamps work or were replaced.

ü Stereo indicator lamp working

ü We also checked the heat sink compound which should be good for another 30 years.

ü All inputs tested and both side produces clean and even sine waves into 'brick-wall' 8 & 4 Ohm loads! No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent! All functions test fine.
Total restoration time investment 16+ hours.

ü Following restoration procedures, the unit was run continuously at medium volume, as all our amplifier / receivers are, into a load with "Loudness" on and both Tone Controls at 10 for 72 hours into a 4 Ohm load.

ü On our test bench, each internal amplifier of this particular unit, #...0181, produced peak power of 16 Volts per channel for 28 Watts per channel @ 8 Ohm and 13 Volts @ 4 Ohm for 42 Watts per channel @ 1khz from actual discrete output transistors (2x 2SA1060 and 2x 2SC2484) (ALL the other 'compacts' we were working on utilized STK power pack, which had some to do with why we couldn't resurrect many of them. The DC was just too high in many cases, and couldn't be rectified practically).
ü AC Idle current at <.35A, & floor noise-60dBm.
ü DC offset checked to <30mVDC / channel (VERY good for a 'compact' unit and as good or better than many separate components).
  ____________________________
  
So, as with anything you want to look up on the 'world wide interweb', you will find a myriad of opinions. Many of them are from folks who have never even personally experienced what they are 'spouting off' about. Well, of course, I have mine too, however, mine will be from someone who does have 'personal experience' with whatever I'm 'expounding' about, and is from 'real world' experiences, 'down in the trenches'. I often get a 'kick' out of what folks have to say (generally negative) about a piece of gear, with no actual, personal experience. Recently read so many opinions of a speaker we had just finished and were about to audition, prior to auditioning them, that I was not holding out much hope for their final performance. Not only was I surprised by their actual performance (in a positive way), they were completely the antithesis of what EVERY opinion on the web stated, with NONE of them ever actually hearing them (they all stated so in their opinions). Anyway, I'll climb down from my 'ivory tower' for a moment just to say that for what this is designed to be it really came out as a wonderful unit following it's 18+ hours of service to bring it back to essentially 'new' condition. Wonderful condition, and for a 'compact system' REALLY GREAT SOUNDING, late 70's, silver face 'Combo' Receiver from Marantz. We've had this for years, but just recently got around to restoring it. We had a few 'compacts' from brands such as Sony, Panasonic, Fisher, Marantz, but most did not pan out (didn't even attempt the 'cheeeeeese' from companies like Electrophonic, GE, Lloyds, Sound Design, Symphonic and a host of other 'bottom feeder' units.

It really is surprising in sonics, performance, feel and quality. Great performance for a 'small to mid-sized' 2-Channel audio system. This is the only the second or third 'compact' to 'pass muster' in the past couple decades (I think the last one was about 1998 or 99 and shipped to Germany and then the Panasonic we recently posted as well).
This is an INCREDIBLY ‘Musical’ sounding receiver. Lot's of surprising 'punch' and volume.
Yes, I know, it's a 'compact' and not a 'separate component', but it really is that nice!!! Enough power for up to 'medium-large' / 10" woofer speakers.
Interestingly, this unit also has the most extensive 'spec listing' of any unit we've ever posted, even over such units as a Pioneer SX-1980 (not even considering that it's 2 units in one). And, the specs are quite respectable in most aspects!

Professional DJ / Club table. Quality tool for the 'long haul'! The Audio-Technica AT-LP1240-USB DJ turntable. Similar in design to some of the vintage turntable models, such as the Kenwood KD-550 'concrete base', the Sony PS-T1, and the Technics SL-1500, SL-1700MK2 or SL-D2 turntable models. This professional stereo turntable features a super high-torque, direct-drive motor for quick start-ups yet is perfectly quiet. Classic 'S' shaped tone arm with 'universal' head-shell that allows mounting of most any 'quality', 1/2' cartridge, either MM (moving magnet) or MC (moving coil). Tone-arm mounted in high quality 4-point, Gimbol bearing.

The AT-LP1240-USB plays back 33-1/3, 45 and 78 RPM records (78 is selected by pressing both 'speed' select buttons simultaneously). Its built-in phono preamp enables the turntable to be connected to a wide variety of music and home entertainment systems, powered speakers, and to A/V receivers that do not include a dedicated phono input (de-featable for 'old schooool' and 'REAL' receivers and integrated amplifiers that 'DO' have a built-in phono pre-amp. The turntable includes PC- and Mac-compatible Audacity® software that converts the audio on a record to MP3, WAV or other format digital audio files.

NEW UPDATE--- We're now including the Audio-Technica AT-95E, MM, Elliptically cut diamond cartridge with tables purchased from us at Oak Tree Vintage.

Table has great mass at almost 30 lbs!

- Direct drive high-torque motor
- Quartz Locked Speed Control System or 'Manual' Strobe Speed controls
*- Adjustable Braking Rate (0.2 – 6.0 seconds)
*- Adjustable Starting Rate (0.2 – 6.0 seconds)
*- Dual Platter / Motor 'Start' / 'Stop' controls
- Fully-Manual operation
- Selectable 33/45/78 RPM speeds (you will need to acquire a stylus / cartridge designed for playing '78 RPM' records to utilize that feature to it's fullest)
- Professional weight cast aluminum platter with slip mat (no PLASTIC platters here, unlike many of the NEW tables out there!)
- Classic 'S' style tone-arm
- High quality 4-point Gimbol bearing
- ½-inch mount universal head shell
- Strobe monitored, adjustable platter speed
- Fluid damped tone arm cuing
- Adjustable tone-arm counter weight
- Adjustable 'Anti-Skating' control

If you have a 'REAL receiver', ie, an old-school, vintage, 2-channel receiver or integrated amp or pre-amp with a phono pre built-in, then you can flip a switch and bypass the 'built-in' phono preamp.
- USB output—connects directly to your computer for plug-&-play use
- Forward or reverse play (this is a DJ feature, and if you value your vinyl or cartridge, DON'T USE 'Reverse'! If you have a crappy cartridge and are playing 'Frisbees', then 'go for it' if you're so inclined!
- *Comes with Mac- and PC-compatible Audacity software and cables to digitize your LPs
If you appreciate the 'organic' sound of quality vinyl, then disregard the above stuff 'USB / SOFTWARE STUFF' and just 'LISTEN' to your vinyl the way it was meant.

ü Our technician has completely gone through and 'Certified' this unit.

ü Everything was cleaned inside and out including all contacts, switches, controls and I/O jacks.

ü Control Pot shafts re-sprung.

ü Internal and external fuses checked and replaced where necessary.

ü All 4 power transistors removed and tested for leakage.

ü Re-flowed multiple solder joints

ü We also aligned the tuner front end for optimum AM & FM performance as older internal tuner components have always drifted on vintage gear over the years.

ü We re- aligned the tuner dial indicator for improved accuracy

ü All meter, dial, and FM stereo lamps replaced for trouble-free service (very difficult to do on this series of receiver). 6x #40 & 4x #25-130 bulbs / lamps.

ü Tuner string re-tensioned for improved flywheel 'grip'

ü Amplifier section had output bias and DC offset adjusted to spec levels

ü Repaired 'open' coil on tuning meter

ü Entire unit cleaned / detailed cosmetically inside and out, including a fresh coat of lemon oil rubbed into the Real Walnut wood veneer cabinet, while chassis was removed.

ü All inputs have been tested and both side produces clean and even sine waves into static 8 & 4 Ohm loads! No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent! All functions test fine.

ü Following our restoration procedures, the unit was run continuously at medium volume, as all our amplifier / receivers are, into a load with "Loudness" on and both Tone Controls at 10 for 48 hours and into a 4 Ohm Load! You will not be disappointed. Total restoration / ‘tech time’ investment ~13 hours.

ü On our test bench, both this unit's amplifiers, #...1204 produced peak power of 18 Volts per channel @ 8 Ohms for 40 Watts and 15 Volts @ 4 Ohms for 56 Watts per channel via discrete, TO-3, metal cased outputs with 1 kHz input. (4x Toshiba 2SC793, (same as Sanken 2SC1111)).
ü Idle current draw measured at 0.2A. Bias adjusted to spec of 20mA. (which by the way, once biased, brought the idle temperature of the heat-sink down from ~220F degrees to ~68°F)
ü DC offset adjusted to <15mVDC L & R unloaded and ZERO mV loaded (from the 75mVDC exhibited initially).
ü Floor noise measured at -60dBm AC w/ AUX shunted).

 CLASSIC STEREO SPEAKERS
 JBL L100 'CENTURY'
#...1011A / 9060A
  Circa mid 1971-77
 MADE IN USA
SOLD 5/23/19
SHIPPING TO STEPHEN IN COLORADO

   One of the top 'Classics' and one of the most sought after speaker models ever made. The JBL L100 ‘Century’ speakers. It's hard to expand on what's already been written out there about these speakers. Most fans of these know some version of the JBL L100 story or link to an appreciation web site. They have been one of my favorites for some years now, and I finally just finished a pair for myself to keep as well. They are capable of high volume levels while producing "pounding" & "tight" bass with great balance on the top and mid end. Just a great 'all-around' speaker for home audio listening or recording ‘studio monitor’ use. Just as happy with a medium-small size amp as they are with amps of larger size (probably not efficient enough to enjoy with a small wattage, under 25 Watts or single ended tube amp).
 Our speaker tech has completely gone through and 'certified' these. Tweeter diffusion foam replaced. All drivers were removed and reinstalled into cabinet with ‘added’ gasketing material under their frames to further reduce any possibilities of vibration or acoustic anomalies.  'High' and 'Mid' Attenuators checked for functionality (these attenuators have wipers that go 'a bit too far', thus go past their coils at 100% rotation, so for 100% signal, adjust to extreme 'clockwise', then back them off 1-2mm). The tweeters have new dispersion foam installed. Grill front frames re-covered and look fabulous (while not shown in the above photos, the "JBL" logo badges are intact on the frames). Next, as always they were tested with both recorded material, PN 20-20k and swept them with our AF generator from 20-3kHz. Then came our standard, 'abusive' test recordings.  The only cosmetic issue worth mentioning, is that the top of one cabinet appears to have been re-veneered, and does not match the cosmetics of the other cabinet (see photos above & reflected in the price). Other than that the front corners and edges are all nice and crisp with virtually no wear.
Cabinets were finished off with a coat of ‘Lemon Oil’ and then hand-rubbed with ‘Feed-n-Wax’. They look GREAT!
Following the above work, these speakers are ready to go!
We auditioned this pair well. Following the above mentioned 'barrage', our demo cuts ran the gamut from Dire Straits, 'Brothers in Arms', TLC 'Fan Mail', Allison Kraus and Union Station, Nickelback, and a few others, all digitally recorded and some 'DDD'.
'Solid', punchy and 'tight' low-end, with no 'mush'. Overall, Great 'tone' quality, but then again, they're one of the most famous and sought after speaker models ever made. Heck, most of the above cuts may have been originally mixed on a pair of these.
 From an original JBL brochure from ’73,
      “The JBL L100, is the most successful speaker ever produced by JBL. It may well be the most successful loud speaker in its class ever produced by anyone.”
      “The JBL L100 is essentially the JBL 4310 studio monitor in a more ‘handsome cabinet’ and was the most ‘expensive bookshelf speaker’ in it’s time.”
  
   JBL L100 Century FEATURES:
 
- 3-Way, Bass Reflex cabinet design 
- 12" / 30cm, JBL 123-A, Die-Cast-aluminum framed, "Ribbed", cone woofer, coated with ‘Lansaplas’, an ‘anti-resonance’ material to reduce radial ‘eddy currents’ (reason for the ‘white’ color), w/ 3”, ‘Edge-wound’ copper ribbon Voice Coil, surrounded by a powerful 6.75 lb ‘AlNiCo V’ magnet.
- 5"JBL LE5 Midrange Die-Cast-aluminum framed, Non-deteriorating paper surround, 7/8” VC and 2.75 lb, AlNiCo magnet
- 1.4" JBL LE25 Tweeter, Die-Cast-aluminum framed, w/ 5/8” copper wound VC & Non-deteriorating paper surround Cone-Tweeter
- "Real" internal 3-Way cross-over
- Hi and Mid attenuators on front panel for custom tailoring sound to your tastes and listening room
- 2.75" tuned port for extending bass response
- Real wood Walnut Veneer Finish on well built, heavy wall cabinet
- Speaker input connectors have been upgraded from the historically anemic JBL connectors used during that era, to heavy duty, 3-Way, binding posts
  
JBL L100 CENTURY SPECIFICATIONS / SPECS:
Frequency Response: Not Specified on most JBL’s
Efficiency: ~85 dB 1W@ 1m
Nominal Impedance: 8Ω each
Cross-over frequencies: @ 1.5k & 6kHz
Continuous / Max power rating: 50 continuous to clean peaks of ten fold
   
The JBL L100 ‘Centurys’ are from what most folks (including us) would argue was JBL’s 'Pinnacle' period, and were offered in the same line-up that gave us the such great JBL models such as the JBL L26 & L36 ‘Decade’ series speakers, the JBL L300A ‘Summit’ speakers, the JBL L65 ‘Jubal’s’, the JBL L166 ‘Horizon’ speakers, The monstrous JBL Paragon D44000 speakers and of course the industry standard, JBL 4310, 4311 4311B & 4312 studio monitors. Again, we have completely tested all drivers at individually applicable frequencies with a sweep generator looking for any irregular anomalies in either the drivers or cabinet structure integrity.
HUGE in SONICS! These are one of the most incredible sounding speakers you will hear. These have most everything we look for in a home audio speaker such as 'balance', detail, power handling, accuracy, punch and 'largeness of sound'. These are in excellent condition as well. Plenty of top end that can be filtered / tailored to your tastes with built-in attenuators. Huge, DEEP low-end that still stays incredibly tight (shakes the concrete floor in our demo room). They are able to handle "power" MUCH better  than your average speaker. Not simply referring to they're wattage rating, but just the way the perform at higher power / volume levels without "falling apart" sonically. We 'stood' on them HARD with our test Hafler power amp. JBL L100’s are always among the top performers of the many speakers we have auditioned over the years. 
 Also, again, these look great having the above mentioned work. JBL L100’s are one of our favorite speakers and for 98% of folks out there, probably one of the most ‘listenable’ speaker you will own for ‘all-around’ music genres and power applications.
If you are looking for a great performing pair of JBL L100’s, sonically as well as cosmetically, then here you go! Comes with a link to an ‘e-copy’ of the original ’73 brochure. Each measures 23.5" h x 14.25" w x  13.75" d and weighs 52 lbs unpacked. Includes our 90 day warranty (excluding problems due to under / over powering)

VINTAGE KENWOOD SPEAKERS
KENWOOD KL-777X
15" WOOFER / 3-WAY / 4-DRIVER
200 WATTS
WITH TWEETER / MID PROTECTION ADDED
#...0829/0904
Circa 1979-81
Made in Japan
SOLD 12/20/19
SHIPPING TO DAN IN CALIFORNIA
Classic lattice grill, vintage & large Kenwood KL-777X stereo speakers. 3-Way, 4-Driver, Bass Reflex cabinet design. These are VERY efficient speakers with above average tone balance for late '70's speakers. Plenty of top end that can be filtered / tailored to your tastes with built-in attenuator or external EQ / tone control. Also HUGE & tight low end, likely due to the ported and very 'tuned' cabinet design. They also seem to be able to handle "power" better than your average speaker. Not simply referring to they're wattage rating, but just the way the perform at higher power / volume levels without "falling apart" sonically.

Our speaker tech has completely gone through and 'Certified' these.

- All drivers were removed and tested individually.

- Attenuators / L-pads cleaned for 'intermittent free' performance.

- Poly-Spun batting added to existing damping material to 'tighten up bass response' and reduce cabinet 'ring'.

- We were originally prepping these speakers for a commercial application (Micro-Brewery) so for more 'trouble-free' durability, we added #1156 bulbs as 'shock absorbers' to the tweeters and midranges (as we commonly do for 'commercial applications' or where there's a chance a speaker may be subjected to more stringent duty cycles). (This particular chain of 'mid-western' micro-brews have purchased dozens of pairs of speaker from us over the past 5 years, actually consuming most of the 'lattice grill' units that have come in to us. These were a in a batch that we did for their last location, that were not needed in the end, as that install had more than enough)

- Gasket / sealant material was added to all driver mounting flanges, prior to re-installation to reduce any possibilities of vibration or acoustic anomalies.

Cosmetically, cabinets were cleaned & the wood grain, vinyl wrapped cabinets are in decent shape with typical nicks and scuffs. One of the Poly molded grills has some 'chunks / chips' out of one corner, but other than than, both are in good 'structural' shape (see photos above). Felt feet were installed to the cabinet bottom plates.
Next, as always, they were tested with both recorded material, PN 20-20k and swept them with our AF generator from 1Hz-3kHz.
Then came our standard, 'issue exposing' and on some levels, 'abusive' test recordings. These speakers are ready to go!

We auditioned this pair extensively and 'THEY DELIVERED' as expected, but additionally adding the 'gasketing' really 'tightened' up the cabinets and cleaned up the bass response. The 'bass' is not only solid and tight on these speakers, but goes VERY DEEP.

Our demo cuts included the following; Dire Straits' "So Far Away" from their album 'Brothers in Arms' album,
Donald Fagens, "I.G.Y." from the album "Night Fly" (solid / snappy reproduction), '24K Gold Edition of Jennifer Waren's "Famous Blue Raincoat' (the saxophone was a bit bright, but not offensive, smooth),
TLC's "Scrub" from their album 'Fan Mail' (did 'sub-bass' note @ 1'25" & 1'35" decently,
Allison Kraus and Union Station's "Baby, Now That I've Found You" (upfront and natural),
Cowboy Junkies ‘Sweet Jane’ (VERY open’),
Don Williams' DDD version of 'Country Boy' (good, 3-D soundstage),
Calvin Hampton's, "The Wedding March" from "Digital Pipes, The Splendor of the Organ", a digital recording of a cathedral pipe organ (open and HUGE!),
Trapt’s “Headstrong” (was ‘solid’ and the woofers exhibited no sign of fatigue even at upper power levels)
Just about anything from "KORN" ROCKED!!!
Most of the cuts from Michael Jacksons' 'Number Ones' such as "Bad" "Beat It", and "Billy Jean", were ‘strongly’ reproduced and VERY solid,
Van Halens' cut "Drop Dead Legs" from the CD "1984" ROCKED!

Nickel Creeks’ “When in Rome” from their CD "Why Must the Fire Die?" (was a BIG, open and up-front),
and a few others, all digitally recorded and some 'DDD'.
 Incredible power handling characteristics for a speaker this size. They are able to handle "power" better MUCH than your average speaker. Not simply referring to their wattage rating, but just the way they perform at higher power / volume levels without "falling apart" sonically. We 'stood' on them HARD with our test Hafler 500 Watt power amplifier. 'Solid', punchy and 'tight' low-end, with no 'mush'.

We auditioned this pair extensively and 'THEY DELIVERED' as expected, but additionally adding the 'gasketing' really 'tightened' up the cabinets and cleaned up the bass response.

Great sounding speaker for that classic 70's stereo receiver or amplifier!
 We have completely tested them with both recorded material, PN and swept them with our AF generator.

Kenwood KL-777X Features: 

- 15" Non-deteriorating Cloth surround Woofer
- 6.25" x 2" Exponential-Horn / Upper Midrange
- 2x 2.5" Tweeters
- "Real" internal cross-over, not just a couple of "caps" on the mids and tweets
- 3-position Hi frequency attenuators, using resistors, not failure prone Ni-Chrome wire, for custom tailoring sound to your tastes and listening room
- Dual 2" Tuned ports for extended low end

Kenwood KL-777X Specifications:

Enclosure Type: Bass Reflex / Tuned-Ported

Efficiency: ~96dB 1w @ 1m
Nominal Impedance: 8Ω
Cross-over frequencies: 2kHz and 8kHz
Recommended Nominal Power Amplifier range: 10-250 Watts

Very nice looking wood grain, vinyl wrap cabinets with only a few, minor 'battle scars'. Again, as stated above, both Poly molded grills in fair shape as one has the 'chips / chunk' from the top corner (see photos above).
All drivers are in perfect condition, work and sound fine! Tested for all frequencies with a sweep generator.
Speakers look fine (except for the above mentioned grill issue) and sound GREAT! Huge, accurate and loud sound, but also very efficient at lower powers due to their 96dB rating! If you're looking for a great performing speaker at medium to higher volume applications, you will not be disappointed with these speakers. Each measures 25.75" H X 23" W X 10.5" D and weighs 37 lbs unpacked. Includes our standard 90 day limited speaker warranty (& excluding problems due to under / over powering)

RECTILINEAR III "TALL BOYS"
STEREO SPEAKERS
#...7942 / 7982
Circa 1968-73
MADE IN THE USA!
SOLD 5/5/19
SHIPPING TO FRANK IN CONNECTICUT
Our speaker tech has completely gone through and 'Certified' these.  We have completely tested all drivers. Original mids' were 'questionable' on the 'audio sweep' so the Midrange's were replaced with a pair of 'originals' we had 'rat-holed' here at Oak Tree Vintage. All drivers were removed and reinstalled into cabinet with ‘added’ gasketing material under their frames to further reduce any possibilities of vibration or acoustic anomalies. Both Mid and Top End attenuators had their contacts burnished and were cleaned internally. Next, as always they were tested with both recorded material, PN 20-20k and swept them with our AF generator from 20-10kHz. Then came our standard, 'abusive' test recordings. We also converted the grills from a 'nailed on' attachment to Velcro and added 'pull-tabs' to facilitate removal (commonly if someone has tried to remove the grills from Rectilinear 'Hi-Boys', the masonite frames will be broken / cracked from being pulled away from the baffle board nails. These were expertly removed, thus are completely intact and un-broken). These speakers are ready to go!

Rectilinear 'III Tall Boys' features include:

- 4-way, 6-Driver, Bass Reflex speaker design
-12" Low Frequency Driver (woofer) (Jensen)
- 5" 'Philips" Midrange w/ 'whizzer cone' & w/ AlNiCo magnets
- 2x 2.5" 'Danish made Peerless' Tweeters w/ AlNiCo magnets
- 2x 2" 'Danish made Peerless' Tweeters w/ AlNiCo magnets
- 2" Tuned port for extended bass response
- Dual Attenuators

Rectilinear 'III Tall Boys' Original Specifications:

Frequency Response: 22-18,500Hz +- 3dB
Nominal Impedance: 8Ω
Cross-over frequencies: @ 500Hz, 3kHz & 11kHz
Recommended Power amplifier rating: 20-100 watts

From a 1967 Stereo Review Julian Hirsh had this to say about the Rectilinear III, "Over a period of several months, we have had the opportunity to compare it with a number of other speakers that can 'outpoint' the Rectilinear III on any "individual" characteristic-frequency range, smoothness, distortion, efficiency, dispersion or transient response. However, none of the speakers combine ALL of these properties in such desirable proportions as the Rectilinear III", and  in a 1972 Stereo Review, he had this to say about the Rectilinear III, "...the two samples we have tested are among the best-sounding and most 'natural' speakers we have heard"
This pair actually has 'Jensen' built 12" woofers from the factory (my personal Rectilinear III-High-Boys do not. Just FYI.) These are great sounding 12" 4-way speakers. All drivers feature a non-deteriorating cloth surrounds. The driver compliment consists of one heavy duty 12" woofer, one 4" midrange with hi-mid whizzer cone, two 2.5" cone tweeters and 2 1/5" cone super tweeters. Bass is enhanced via a 3" tuned port.
System input is via binding-post / banana jacks. The input plate also features midrange and hi-freq attenuators, and the "MADE IN THE USA" plate. The entire enclosure is damped with batting. The cabinets are a beautiful American Walnut with very nice grain featured throughout and are in near new condition. These have great efficiency, but are still able to handle bigger power. Huge bass and crystal clear highs with just enough mids.

These things ROCK! I know. These are the pair from my personal 'speaker stash / collection'.

They measure 35" tall x 18" wide x 12" deep and each weighs 70 lbs unpacked. Comes with an 'e-copy' /pdf download of the Rectilinear Owners manual, as well as a few 'e-copies' of original brochures. Includes our 90 day warranty (excluding problems due to under / over powering)!

These are from an upper-end line of speakers that Technics produced for MCS. The "Linear Motion" line used a Tri-Planer baffle board design to more correctly "time align" the 'top end' drivers with the woofer. The Midrange is on a 'spacer' to position it (time-wise) between the tweeter and woofer. This design was based on the Flagship (and very expensive) Technics SB-7070 speakers.
Our speaker tech has completely gone through and 'Certified' these. We have completely tested them with both recorded material, PN 20-20k and swept them with our AF generator.  
MCS 8320 Features include:

- 3-Way, Bass Reflex cabinet
- 'Time-Aligned' / Bi-planar baffle board
- 2" Pulp-cone tweeter
- 4" Pulp-cone Midrange
- 12" Ribbed, Pulp-Woofer with non-deteriorating Cloth surround
- 2.25" tuned port for extending low end
- External, resettable protection relays for all drivers
- 'Spring Clip' Speaker terminals

MCS 8320 Specifications / Specs:

Frequency Response: 32-22,000Hz +- 3dB
Efficiency: ~92dB 1W@ 1m
Nominal Impedance: 8Ω nominal
Recommended Minimum Power amplifier rating: 15 Watts minimum

Again, all drivers tested, work and sound fine! Tested for all frequencies with a sweep generator. Speakers cleaned inside and out. They have black cloth grills and the cabinets are a mixture of black and walnut grain vinyl wrapped. Cabinets and grills are in great shape. Grills still have all locating pins intact and frames are free of breaks / cracks etc. Each cabinet measures 24" tall x 13.5" wide x 12.25" deep and weighs 26 lbs unpacked. Includes our standard 90 day limited warranty ( & excluding problems due to under / over powering)

YAMAHA NS-A738 / NSA738 BIRCH FINISH

Circa 1999-2000
Made in the USA (yes, really)
SOLD 12/26/18
SHIPPING TO JIM IN LOUISIANA
Great looking, performing and sounding Yamaha NS-A738 3-way speakers have a room filling, "tight" sound that ensures sonic accuracy. Great for home use or project studio monitors. If you can't afford the famous Yamaha NS-10's (now, currently north of $1000.00), then these may be an affordable alternative for your project recording studio (I used to be a dealer for NS-10's and have heard and sold many).


Our speaker tech has completely gone through and 'Certified' these.
We have completely tested them with both recorded material, PN 20-20k and swept them with our AF generator. Prior to testing with the sweep generator, we added gasket material under all the driver flanges in each cabinet to eliminate resonate vibrations. This is really a 'finishing touch' on this model of Yamaha's that should have been done at the factory, but is rarely done by most companies / manufacturers. We also added 'poly-spun' batting to the cabinet space to further tighten up the low-end, eliminate hollowness / cabinet ringing. Again, should have been done at the factory, instead of relying an 'empty cab' to allow 'boomy bass' which on the original sales floor, made the box appear sonically 'larger' than it is by making the box seem to be producing more bass. The 'bass' that an un-damped cabinet produces is 'hollow and flappy', and not what you'll want to listen to over the long haul. That would be come very fatiguing soon.
Handles power decently and reproduced the low-end in our most difficult test CD! If you've read some of our other 'audition notes', you'll know what is meant when I say that these speakers, "reproduced the "TLC 'Sub-Bass' note' VERY well" when situated on the floor.

 Yamaha NS-A738 Features include:
   
- 3-Way, Acoustic Suspension design for studio monitoring "tight bass"
- 8” High-Compliance, Cloth Surround, Polypropylene Coated, Long-Throw woofer, woofer w/ non-deteriorating cloth surround
- 4” mid non-deteriorating paper surround
- .75” Ferro-Fluid Cooled, Mylar, Dome tweeter
- Infinite baffle for exceptionally tight bass
  
Yamaha NS-A738 Specifications:
  
Frequency Response: 90-20,000Hz ± 3.5dB  
Efficiency: 91dB 1W @ 1m
Nominal Impedance: 8Ω each
Cross-over frequencies: at 4.2kHz & 13.5kHz (6dB / Octave)
Recommended Minimum Amp Size: 10 Watts
Maximum input power rating: 140 Watts
  
All drivers work and sound fine! Tested for all frequencies with a sweep generator and test CD's. Each finished in black, matte, vinyl wrap. Speakers look and sound GREAT! One of the best "all around" speakers we've heard in a long time at any size or price. Each measures 16" tall x 11" wide x 13" deep and weighs 14 lbs unpacked.

KENWOOD STEREO PRE- AMP
KENWOOD CONTROL AMPLIFIER "Basic C2"
#...0258
Circa 1984-90 
SOLD 1/30/20
SHIPPING TO STEVE IN OHIO
ü Our technician has completely gone through this unit*.

ü We have completely gone through this unit, cleaning inside and out including all contacts, switches and controls.



ü *Unit originally presented with one channel down. As we've had a number of these, we knew that it was likely the "Balance" control potentiometer. It was the issue, so the pot was 'jumpered'*. Fairly 'excusable' work around as most folks are typically leaving their 'balance' control turned to the center 100% of the time anyway.
While this is a fairly versatile pre-amp, that we 'still like', it does have a few 'difficult to service' issues and a couple of 'semi-permanent' defects. Firstly there's a fairly common issue with the 'balance' control pot. It's anemic / fragile in the first place, which makes it prone to 'breaking' in such a way that it will drop channels. We have not found a replacement. There are a couple of websites that have photo essays on doing 'micro-surgery' on them, but it's very difficult, time consuming with sketchy results. Probably the most practical way to address the issue with the balance pot is to 'jumper' across it. It can either be left in place or removed once jumpered.

The same 'fix' can be utilized on the 'Headphone' level pot, then simply use the main volume of the pre-amp to control the headphone level (like EVERY other unit does).

ü Unit All RCA I/O jack terminal solder joints re-flowed internally





ü *Unit also has an issue with the *'Hi-Filter' switch. While it has been cleaned and lubed, it will not 'lock in' so consider there's no 'Hi-Filter' on this one (yes, the circuitry still functions, but was not practical for use to source a replacement switch on this unit with the other two issues. "Hi-Filter" is also a fairly 'fringe' feature and seldom used by most folks, so we decided it was 'excusable')

ü *Unit also has the issue, common with the "Balance" control potentiometer affecting the headphone amplifier, with additional issue with the 'headphone' section, thus we have bypassed the entire headphone functions on this one.

ü All inputs tested and both side produces clean and even sine waves! Checked with O-Scope.

ü  No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent! 
  ____________________________
  
Versatile Kenwood "Basic C2" Pre-amp / control center. Would match up well with any power amp and is very "utilitarian". Loaded with "real world" features. Again, with the exception of the 'bypassed balance control', the unit works well and sounds great! Cosmetically the only issue really worth mentioning is that the top, metal cover has scratches from someone sitting a unit with no feet on it and moving it around. Also, as the 'Balance' and 'Headphone Level' are 'non-functional', we inserted hole plugs where the knobs would be (the pots are still there if anyone wants to attempt a repair in the future.)

Kenwood C2 Features include:
  
- Separate Bass and Treble with selectable turnover frequency
- Turnover freqs set at 200 or 400 on the bottom end and 3k or 6kHz on the top end.
- Selector for MM or MC cartridges
- 5 position phono cartridge EQ selector (this feature, combined with the MM/MC selector / head-amp alone can be worth a few hundred dollars, if you're contemplating moving up to a Moving Coil turntable cartridge. MC carts require an extra head-amp and this amplifier has one built in)
- Built-in Low and Subsonic Filters to eliminate excess rumble from sources such as turntables. These are selectable for either 58Hz, 40Hz or 18Hz @ 18dB / Oct.
- Hi "Scratch" filter set at 8Khz with a slope of 12dB / Oct. Useful for reducing the 19kHz pilot tone in FM and tape hiss / electronic hiss & noise and record static (again, NON-functional on this particular unit, #...0258)
- Output defeat
- Mono / Stereo input selector
- Phono / Turntable input with Built-In Phono Pre-Amp
- Dual Tape Monitors with bi-directional dubbing (may also be used for Video / CD / DVD / LD / VCR / DAT / MP3 / iPod® / iPad® / iPhone® / iPod® / iTouch® / iGadget / eReader / MP3 / XM® / SIRIUS® etc. as well as for CDR)
- Dual (1 & 2) Aux inputs (may also be used for Video / CD / DVD / LD / VCR / DAT / MP3 / iPod® / iPad® / iPhone® / iPod® / iTouch® / iGadget / eReader / MP3 / XM® / SIRIUS® etc.)
- CD Input (may also be used for Video / CD / DVD / LD / VCR / DAT / MP3 / iPod® / iPad® / iPhone® / iPod® / iTouch® / iGadget / eReader / MP3 / XM® / SIRIUS® etc.)
- Tuner input (may also be used for Video / CD / DVD / LD / VCR / DAT / MP3 / iPod® / iPad® / iPhone® / iPod® / iTouch® / iGadget / eReader / MP3 / XM® / SIRIUS® etc.)
- "Loudness" function to boost Bass and Treble in relationship to Mid frequencies at lower volume levels for a much fuller sound.
- Headphone output with separate level control (again, NON-functional on this particular unit, #...0258)
- Indicator LED's for input selector
- 3 AC convenience outlets ( 2 switched 1 un-switched)
  
Kenwood C2 Original Specs:
   
Design type: 2 Channels, Analog operation
Frequency Response: 1-350kHz +0 / -3dB
Maximum Output Level: 1V
THD: 0.001% at full rated power
Phono MM Sensitivity: 2.5mV for 5.0V output @ 1kHz
Phono MM Maximum Input Level: 200mV
Phono MC Input Impedance: Selectable
S/N on Phono MM w/ 5mv signal: 94dB
Phono Capacitance: Selectable
High Level Sensitivity (tuner, Aux, Tape): 150mV
  
The Kenwood C2 has always been one of our favorite pre-amps under $600-$800. It's simply hard to beat for specs, features and performance. That is also evidenced by the fact that it was current in Kenwood's lineup, as their upper end pre, for almost half a decade. Again, we have completely gone through the unit cleaning all contacts, pots, switches and controls. All functions (again, with the exception of the 'Balance' control') test as original. Unit looks and sounds great! Unit measures 17.25" wide x 3" tall x 13" deep and weighs 10 lbs unpacked. Comes with original owners manual and includes our 90 day limited warranty.

Performs and sounds fantastic! All inputs tested and both side produces clean and even sine waves! No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent! Following restoration procedures, we burned it in, in the shop for 48 hours and it functioned flawlessly (we actually took it into our 'demo' system and 'rocked-it' HARD on our Altec VOTT's. HUGE sound and thump).

This is a Huge and Beautiful looking, performing and sounding power amplifier. Great 'High-Tech' look (in 'vintage terms anyway). Cosmetically, it looks great with only a few minor 'dings / scratches', mostly not visible from the front. The minor scratches on the front are faint and fairly 'un-noticeable' (see photos above).
While it could be used with any other pre / control amp, as they came in as a pair from the original owner, we only want them to stay together to their 'new' owner.

Mitsubishi DA-A10DC / DA-M10 Features:

HAFLER STEREO POWER AMPLIFIER
HAFLER 9180
 #...1277
 Circa 1991-94
SOLD 3/2/19
SHIPPED TO BRIAN IN TEXAS

ü  Our technician has completely gone through and 'Certified' this unit cleaning contacts, controls and pots.

ü  Amp has been cleaned inside and out.

ü  We replaced the AC power input jack.

ü  Internal fuses checked for correct values and function

ü  Bias and DC offset set correctly.

ü  All functions have been tested and pass with flying colors!

Amp designed using Huge Power Supply Transformer and super quality (expensive) filter caps. Externally located, vertically finned heat sink for very efficient and silent, passive cooling of output devices (all amps / receivers should be designed this way). This amplifier is in both great electronic and physical shape. Looks LIKE NEW and sounds fantastic! All inputs tested and both side produces clean and even sine waves! No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent! Following restoration procedures, we burned it in, in the shop at continuous high volume for 8 hours straight and it functioned flawlessly.
Technician's note: "this amp was final evolution of the DH-220's. VERY good build quality"
   
On our test bench, this unit's (#...1277) amplifiers produced 32+ Volts at 8 Ohms per channel for 128 Watts / channel and 28+ Volts at 4 Ohms per channel for 210 Watts / channel via discrete output transistors (DC out adjusted to less than 9mV per channel. Floor noise < 0.1mVAC. Idle AC current draw @ .86A)
   
Great "general purpose" power amp for a variety of consumer and Pro-Audio applications. Super quiet operation and build quality. We run it's little brother in our main demo system and have for years. Love it!!! Great for full range stereo speakers, Studio Monitors, stage monitors, wedge monitors or running drivers in a Bi-Amp / Tri-Amp system.
For you 'tech-savvy' types, here's an excerpt from the original manual regarding amp architecture and 'Mono-mode', "The input stage of the 9180 Amplifier utilizes four low-noise, High-g, JFET’s (high trans-conductance junction field-effect transistors), in a fully complimentary, symmetric configuration. This circuit configuration results in excellent front-end headroom and a simple, straightforward connection to the remainder of the circuitry. The ultra low noise characteristics of the JFET’s virtually eliminates noise “mixing” (inter-modulation) with the music signal, reducing discordant product frequencies known as “noise grain”, or “noise fuzz”.

    The input stage is cascade connected to convert the low voltage input system to the high voltage output system, and “speeds up” the front end for superior bandwidth. The cascade stage is connected to an emitter-follower and current mirror configuration that amplifies the current level about ten times, necessary to drive the biasing string and final output stage driver emitter followers.
    
The final output stage uses multiple lateral MOSFET’s (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors): four devices per channel in the 9180. These devices, unlike conventional bipolar transistors, have a negative temperature coefficient, which means that they do not exhibit “thermal runaway”. Thermal runaway is a phenomenon whereby a transistor heats up as it conducts more current, which causes it to get hotter, and conduct more current, and so on, until the device self-destructs. Since MOSFET’s are inherently self-protecting, no sonically degrading, complex circuitry is required to monitor and protect the output devices.
     Furthermore, these lateral MOSFET’s exhibit a very linear input to output transfer function. Their connection in circuits and operating characteristics are very similar to vacuum tubes, which is perhaps responsible for their widely recognized sonic trait of being very “musical” and non-fatiguing.

     Conversion to Mono Mode is accomplished by driving the negative input (feedback point) of the right channel with the output of the left channel. This causes the right channel to mirror exactly the output of the left channel, but 180 degrees out of phase. This creates twice the voltage swing to be available across the two red output binding posts. This simple method of bridging the amplifier (involving only one resistor) eliminates the costly and sonically degrading invertors circuitry used in other amplifiers."
