Joseph retipped my VDH MC-10 and Denon DL-103D and couldn't be happier!

Used an Anthem Pre-2L with an Odyssey Stratos amp for years. Great synergy.

Different manufacturer.

Check out Omega speakers made in Norwalk, Ct. The owner Louis Chochos is a great guy to deal with. Single driver speakers that are super efficient. I'm running the Super 3i with my Scott 299A and HSU sub. Great synergy. https://omegaloudspeakers.com

My first TT was a PL-12 (pre-D) and put a Stanton 681EE in it with a Dyna SCA-35 with home built JBLs (D-208s and 075s with N7000s) in 1971. Great stuff for cheap back in the day!!!!!

Hey - Just received the new ALS on Verve/UMe. It's quite good. My rig is a Thorens TD-316 with a Van den HuI Special MC-10 cartridge. I have an original stereo and mono Impulse and it's not even close. The new release is amazing. My ears are 66 years old and this new release is killer. The price...

I remember taking my SCA-35 to the Mac clinic at David Dean Smith in New Haven in 1970 and the readings were off the Mac standards as far as distortion. I wasn't dissuaded and am still enjoying that little guy today! Those were the days for sure!!!!

I've good luck with these guys and they're fairly close by for quick delivery. https://www.vivatubes.com

Dynaco SCA-35, Scott 299A, Little Dot Mk 2 and a Sherwood S3000 tuner.

Agreed with Craig @ NOS Valves. Mike Urban of Urban Antique Radio & Vintage Hi-Fi in West Hartford is fairly close by. He's worked on my SCA-35 and Scott 299a. One of his guys lives in Stratford and you could coordinate a drop off and pick up with him.
