I use my ST-35 (with Dave Gilespie boards upgrade) with Klipsch Forte 2s (Chorus 2's smaller cousins) with excellent results. I have a Niles speaker switch connected to the Fortes and a pair of Klipsch KG 1.5s. The Niles allows me to dial in volume of each pair for perfect balance to my...

Awesome work! I’m envious. I follow Mr. Carlson on YouTube and think his capacitor tester is worth the effort. I haven’t attempted it due to fear of getting in over my head. You have turned out a beautiful product, bravo!

Tim and I have discussed this. I’m mailing him the documents to scan into pdf files. Once completed, Tim will post to share with the AK community. Tim can confirm where he is in the process, once he has the docs in hand and has lined up the flatbed scanner needed to accommodate the larger sized...

Tim, I have a KX-200 and matching FM-200B tuner with the original documentation (assembly manual, service manual, operating instructions, and assorted large scale assembly diagrams (Phase 1-4 ). I'll PM you. Jim

WOW! Beautiful work, what an inspiration!

It's so long ago I don't remember how I got them from them. I only know they don't fit anything I own. I will look through mail and files, but I doubt I have anything on it.

I'm readying my MAC 1500 for sale. So, up into the attic I go for the box. While digging, I found these panlocs from Audio Classics up there. No receipt, just the panlocs wrapped in bubble wrap and styrofoam in the box. I recall buying panlocs for my C33 preamp back when, and have a vague...

Direct linkTriode link to the ST-35 improved chassis offering: http://triodeelectronics.com/st35chas.html

I looked for this chassis from Triode: https://sep.yimg.com/ca/I/triodeel_2268_102996976 But it is now marked as “sold out”. I wrote to Triode and they directed me to: http://www.triodestore.com/diytubest35chassis.html The problem is I want to build a new ST-35 with Dave Gillespie EFB and...

Retro, With the mid range removed, the distance from the edge of the WOOFER to the top of the cabinet is only 7 inches. I suppose some judicious removal of flower pot material where the pot meets the top of cabinet could buy some “wiggle room” But my concern is the mid-range frame is 6 1/2”...

Okay, I removed the mid-range from the cabinet to better assess the required flower pot dimensions. The mid measures 6 1/2” across. The space between the edge of the woofer and the top of the cabinet is 7”. (See pics) Therefore, there isn’t enough clearance to mount a flower pot flush with...

Biggles, Thanks for your push! I I bought what I though was 8" flower pots, but found them to be too large to fit between the Woof and top of cabinet. Granted I didn't go much beyond eyeballing it with the back off the cabinet. did you remove the sound batting to install and then re-install...

I’ve Tobinized and am now considering the flower pot mod for the mid and moving the tweets. Does anyone have a design (size, shape, construction) or suggestions for enclosures for moving the tweeters out and up on top of the Urban 302A cabinets?

Bj, Thanks for your quick reply. Since I wrote you, I have a line on a VPI that I'm going to chase. (More money, of course, but you know how these thing go,,,up up up!) So I will pass, thanks. Good luck with your sale. Regards, Jim

That's a nice Denon table!. I may be interested but have the following concern: The spec plate calls for 100 volts. (typical voltage in Japan) How do you compensate for the higher typical voltage in the US? Is the direct drive motor speed accuracy affected by the higher voltage? Thanks, Jim

Hi Dave, I'm in contact with Redboy regarding an original condition Pilot 232 he has listed on Bartertown. I'd love to have it but it needs to be refreshed/ restored before it can be put into use. I asked him to recommend someone to restore the amp and he pointed me to you. Are you taking on...

Zoso purchased my Sansui speakers. A nice clean transaction. I also bought few albums from him. He delivered them when he picked up the speakers. The records are in like new condition with fresh plastic protectors on the album covers and fresh paper sleeves on the vinyl. I couldn't be more...

Saltwater purchased my magnavox 9304-20. It was a nice clean transaction done solely on our word agreement. I shipped and he sent a check. All went as agreed. He's a man of his word and a recommended AK'r Thanks! Jim

I just finished my second BT transaction with Bob (Highping) He's a good and honorable AK'r. My items were extremely well packed and shipped quickly and arrived as described. Members like Bob make AK the place I love! Thanks Bob! Jim JGSulliv

Bozaks I'm the guy from NJ! I picked these up last Friday and haven't even had time to hook them up yet! I'm really looking forward to the legendary Bozak sound. I'll report back when that happens. Happy new owner, Jim

Hey Kegger, I have no preconception as to which way to go. In fact I have no idea. This is my first step into messing inside tube audio beyond replacing caps in the Heathkit AA-32 I bought from you on BT last year (BTW, it sounds great). What I'm looking to do is learn by doing and seeking...

RS 199B - Beitmans Schematic Now with attachment!

Thanks Redboy and Kegger for your comments/ input. I picked this version of the schematic off the net today. Kegger, I found a 100ohm choke on the auction site for $8. I see two resistors in the circuit, the 100ohm 7W, and a 390ohm 7W. Does that mean I need another choke? Jim

Hi Kegger and other interested AKr's Heres the RS199B schematic and parts info. Thanks for any restoration/ improvement info you can offer!
