    New place, new space. Been working towards this for two years. Searching, fixing, changing, moving positions. Pretty happy with the sound I'm getting now! Nagaoka MP110, SL-1200MK2, SX-1010, Advent Loudspeakers and Polk Monitor 10As.

    Pioneer SX-737 into Altec Lansing Model 5s paired with Advent Loudspeakers. Combo sounds sweet to my ears! SX-535 below, Sansui and fisher spx are just being used for stands.

    Funny how life works

    Yes, love that 535, it's in beautiful condition and was recon'd from a very good tech who specializes in the x3x series pioneers. Picking up a 737 from him in a few weeks... Trying to track down more OLAs!

    Funny how life works

    Great post, thanks for sharing! I'm new to vintage audio, formerly spent all my extra quiche on guitars and guitar amps. Brought two thoughts to mind that I'd love to hear opinions on. 1. In guitar rigs 20 watts on a tube amp dwarfs a 20 watt SS amp, does the same hold true for hifi ? And...

    Good call. Noticed this when moving from my work space (open area) to my bedroom (recessed area up against wall).

    I have advent prodigy ii's and baby ii's in my rotation also. I feel like they don't get much love from the gen pop too. Maybe we just have a different taste. however, the ba a120s are not easy to find so somebody is hanging on to them. Thanks for posting man!

    Boston Acoustics A120 ??

    (I know this is an old thread, but wanted to chime in) Bought a pair of these off of CL for about $60. Spx were super clean and well cared for. Got home, hooked em up and was less than impressed. No fullness to sound. The 10" surrounds were intact, but felt limp. So I refoamed them (old ones...

    Baby Advent II speakers review

    Refoam on these are super easy. I have refoamed advent prodigy ii's and baby advent ii's that I refoamed myself (first attempt ever) running out of a Pioneer SX-535. Apartment setting, so volume rarely past 1 or 2 watts and they are PERFECT for that type of all day listening. Sound gets better...

    What are the other '70's little guys (receivers)?

    TRUTH.... I have the same two models. Wish I could confirm the OEM. Seems to be some varied opinions.

    Lafayette LR 5555a speaker recommendations

    I just picked up a well kept Lafayette LR-3500 as my entry receiver and picked up some Advent Prodigy ii speakers, not sure of age, but they sound very nice with this receiver, especially FM radio. I listen at low volumes (apartment) and the base still kicks with total satisfaction with bass...

    The Sansui RA-500 next to it is hooked up to the remote speaker output and is fun to tinker with but I really just hooked to up for the vibe. #cheapthrills. Also only paid $30. In great shape.
