okay, you can have the console magnavox tuner. this draws power from the amp, which is not included ,so you have to have a PS for this

Sir VD,

Its my utmost thanks on the opportunity for having one of your vintage gear.

Cheers.


your brother picked-up this morning the magnavox single-ended amp together with the vintage wharfedales. we fired-up the wharfedales a short while and i saw a smile on his face. :)

can't find my RCA...saw a 6bq5 single-ended amp instead. this must be working as i personally restored this and used this on the Brines Fostex some years ago.

this should look very pretty with some woodwork. i know you can make this a work of art :wink:

Hi,

I know its a bit late for this post, but perhaps I might get lucky. May I also express interest in one of your amps for restoration.

Thanks,

Skee6


PS. I ve seen those huge open baffle/horn speakers, pictured in Vals tribute to you yesterday, at the HARANA lair during the last audio show. Wonder if its the same.

:D :D :D WOW :!: Thanks VD! Today is the feast of the three kings, the last day of Christmas season. I m looking forward to receiving a gift from the GODFATHER of WIREDSTATE :!: :D :D :D

I have listened to those speakers during the first hour of the audio show.
The good guys from HARANA allowed me the privilege of listening to those massive speakers using, a SET amp with WE vintage and reissue 300b tubes. I was amazed at how a low powered mono block SET amp could make those speakers sing. I believe, these are the horn speakers our good friend KABUBI wanted me to listen to. :) Just wondering how you get to listen to all of your toys :)
