    House full of records and equipment

    Here is a YouTube video that might be of interest: There are three houses in the video, the one with the records and equipment starts at about 9:00 and runs through 24:35. The enterprising auctioneer does get the stuff, and is going to sell it.

    Spooked 'em?

    I saw some speakers in an online local auction, described as "Vintage speakers" with no further description, only one picture, the front. The badge was Klipsch, so I did a Google image search - Klipsch Heritage Forte IV came back! These are current speakers selling for $4995 new. I order...

    This you've got to see - they're auctioning Dick Sequerra's estate

    Yep, the contents of his lab and factory are up for sale. If you ever wanted to buy three boxes of wire-wound potentiometers, or a crate full of solder, or four cabinets full of resistors, now is your chance! They're even offering to ship the stuff, but that won't be cheap. Here you go...

    Can anyone identify the stuff in this pile?

    The auctioneer obviously knows nothing about audio. It look like a mixture of cheap junk and stuff with potential value: https://www.auctionninja.com/clearinghouseestatesales/product/electronics-mcintosh-denon-and-more-998357.html Honestly, the least they could do is say what it is.

    Some good vintage pieces at a CT local online auction

    I was browsing auctions looking for paintings and sculpture, and found some interesting audio. It is evident that the auctioneer has no idea what it is, or what it might be worth, and it is kind of buried. Usual caveats for local online auctions apply - untested, 18% buyers premium, you have...

    Amplifier Identification Challenge

    I've been watching Mike's YouTube channel for a while, and yesterday he posted a video showing some audio components he's picked up. The last piece appears to be some sort of high-end amplifier, but there is no manufacturer name or model number anywhere on the piece. It looks to me not to be...

    I went to an antique mall yesterday...

    ....having gotten my first Pfizer shot about a week ago. I hadn't been to this mall for more than a year. This time all the vendors had records, but the prices seemed strangely high. I haven't buying records for a year, and I know prices are up quite a bit. So I took out my phone and...

    They must be reading this forum!

    I opened up the Audio Advisor catalog that just arriveed, and there it was on the first page: the new Music Hall Classic with automatic tonearm lift at the end of the record. I know that quite a few of the posters here are sticking to vintage because no modern quality turntable has any sort...

    Speak identification, episode 136

    OK, AKers, here you go: https://www.auctionninja.com/clearinghouseestatesales/product/tower-3-way-home-entertainment-speakers-187208.html I suspect they are some sort of off-brand home theatre speakers made just to look fancy, possibly even white van. Lack of a maker's name on the back is...

    You know you're a real record collector when....

    ....you can't find a whole section of your collection! I know I had a small blues section, about 25 records, but I couldn't remember where I put it. I thought it might be in the box with the Indian classical records, but it wasn't there. Not in box of American country either, or next to the...
