In a nutshell. KEF Q350's on Craigslist at $500 with factory Warranty. Call and ask how a warranty is possible. He says he is authorized KEF dealer and these are demos. From his basement! OK then, how about LS50's ? $900 shipped. New. Check KEF website and he is on their list. "HiFi Handyman"...

Scratching my head on this one. My Primaluna Prologue Five amp has the power tube socket guide pin slots at 12 o'clock. The 12au7 and 12ax7 sockets have the pin "gap" at 12 o'clock also. Got a quad of Gold Lion KT88s from Jim McShane... when installed the nice "Gold Lion" script and base...

Picked up these L1290 series-1 the other day. Impressed ... so much so, these will now be my number ones. Smooth to the ears ... no fatigue ...yet punchy in all the right places. Mids are dimpled ... presuming ferrofluid has leaked out. Tweeters look o.k. .... still "plump". In conversation...

Have local access to the above ... same basic price range. The Cornwalls are 1970 vertical horn with cane cloth ... untested and look a little rough. The L1290's have a tweeter dome with a small dent and look good ... seller is an AK member. Have tube watts 35,40 or 50 per side. Have ss...

Scored a pair of EV Wolverine LT-12's circa 1966 from the postmark on the amp manuals. They have the 3-way eq switch and sound really sweet with my tube gear. They came in pretty cool home made cabinets ... with removable set on tops. I like the sound better with the tops off ... should I maybe...

Is it advantageous or desirable to add a bucking transformer to knock the voltage down for my stereo 70? It will receive a new quad cap and rebuilt driver board in a few weeks. The driver board retains the stock blueprint and 7199 tubes. Have read the approximately 125v from the outlet being...

Bought this puppy off Craigslist for a decent enough price. I am hoping to do a few simple mods and work on my soldering skills and understanding ... for fun basically. If I get in over my head I can always have Blaine bail me out ( blhagstrom ). The ST 70 sounds pretty good as is .. I set bias...

Received a tuner well packed and in beautiful condition .... would buy again.

Anyone know what model Yamaha tuner color matches my C6 preamp? Have a T-80 that is a darker black than the C6 ... starting to annoy me. Hoping the T-1 or T-2 with the dial is a match but having trouble telling from pics. The C6 is a "flatter" black for want of a better description.

Bought some speakers from Woody ... he was a pleasure to work with and packed the speakers with extra care and caution ... everything went smoothly and as promised. Great AK'er.

Was close to biting on a Rega RP3 .... noticed they are discounted now that the new Planar3 (P3) is shipping. The new edition runs $200 more than the discounted model. Anyone have any thoughts about the new arm and other improvements?
