I finally got my hands on this Beauty ( my opinion )
Class A to 24w then 95w
Sounds lovely and near mint condition as it was in a holiday home that was rarely visited.
Hi guys , just acquired a CT-1010 to go with my CA-2010, I need to replace the little red stereo indicator bulb/led , I’m confident that I am receiving stereo and as it never lights up I reckon it’s blown , I know about the really helpful guy on here who supplies the vu meter bulbs etc (...
This is not a sales thread .
I have these wonderful sounding speakers, they have good reviews too , and they’re pretty rare ( here in the uk at least)
And yet I can’t sell them for £150 ! What is wrong with the world
So today I stripped down my ca2010 in preparation for a recap , when browsing the web I noticed that mine and most others don’t have the additional ( transistors ? ) that some others have !
The first photo is of my amp , look at the heat sinks and how there are no wires going into them , then...
As the corners had some dings and a 2 inch chunk missing at the front ( this really bugged me ) I decided to use up some left over American black walnut veneer to give the tuner a new coat ….
As the casing had a few dings on the corners and a 2 inch chunk missing on the front I decided I’d apply new veneer this morning as I’m off sick with a bad back ( it doesn’t hurt when I’m standing) it took me around 4 hours in total ( I already had the veneer from a previous job )
I just love these unique matched pair of monoblocks that I found some months ago , they sound very good and I think the build is quite good too .
Sad to say that I now have too much hifi so these may soon be finding a new home .
I thought I’d share them on here .
1980’s/90’s build. I personally...
Bought these two yesterday.
I have a few questions about them , are there any members that will be happy to offer their guidance with restoring these ?
My latest find is this apparently rather special
Leak point one TL12.1 mono valve power amp and matching Rc/Pa remote control preamp.
Untested and not used since 1979 .
Totally original too and with all required cables .
Thought I’d share this mornings impulse purchase.
I’ve had the drivers out ( nice ) ordered new foam rings and then discovered that they’re not a matched pair
Any thoughts ?
Oh and they do work , woofers show 6.2ohms.
Are they worth restoring? I was planning a piano white finish until I noticed...
Yes they're made by Canon as in canon cameras etc .
These are as rare as rocking horse shit and in this condition! Impossible to find .
Keepers I think .
Now do I sell the Kef reference 105/4's ?
