    No Affiliation. https://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/ele/d/arlington-harmon-kardon-am-fm-tuner/7391576961.html I have a soft spot for H/K tube items. My first tube integrated was a H/K A500. I know there are a few other H/K heads out there as well as mono tube tuner fans. This came from a...

    Pilot Tube Console Auction — Fort Collins CO

    This looks very nice. It is a 6BQ5 amp so I assume it is a Pilot 232 amp inside. Also it has the Tuner/ Preamplifier to make it sound beautiful. No affiliation. But I know how much love Pilot tube components get. It would be great for an AK member to snag this...

    Snell E in NJ - $69

    No affiliation but I cannot let the posting of this not get notice from AK. Obviously it looks like a woofer is missing but still this could be a deal for the right person. https://newjersey.craigslist.org/ele/d/ridgewood-snell-acoustics-type-ii/7311554288.html

    Recommendations on where to find these RCA adapters?

    Take a gander. They seem simple enough, they are just RCA connectors that go from a female jack to a male plug. I cannot for the life of me find anywhere online that has these. Not on eBay, not amazon, not monoprice. I think I bought these when RadioShack was closing down its physical stores and...

    Here is another one from CL. This one is a deal if you want a good mono setup. They look well preserved. Though I do not think they are from the 1970s... Again, no affiliation. But if my postings here can help someone score all the better...

    Fisher Allegro Console $450 ME

    No affiliation. And I know this is no smoking deal. But it seems fair. I know Fisher folks love their consoles and this appears to be in very good shape. And the romantic in me thinks it should fall into the arms of someone who would love it...

    MC-40 Laboratory Amplifiers with Gray Transformers

    I stumbled across this CL post for a pair of MC40s and I have never seen any amplifiers with gray transformers. Did McIntosh make gray transformers for lab usage? Looking from the photos it does not seem that these were painted by the owner. As per the post: "This pair was lightly used by a...

    H/K TA-5000x Receiver - $75 CT

    No affiliation. It looks to be all there under the layers of dust. I have an A500 that uses the same 7355 tubes and it is a very nice sounding amplifier. https://nwct.craigslist.org/ele/d/brookfield-harman-kardon-early-60s-tube/7021204257.html

    Fisher FM-50-B Tuner Dial Lamp

    I have an FM-50-B tuner that I wanted to upgrade the lamps in the tuner to the warm white LEDs. I thought it would take the 42 mm like a 400. I had an extra pair of those but they do not fit in the lamp holder. It appears to accept a smaller size, like 38mm. The lamp in there presently is not...

    Tube Shields for MX110

    I have this MX110 that I finally got around to sending to Mr. Dewick and it is now on its way home. I have one issue with it. I have no tube shields for two of the tubes. I first thought this was no big deal. But after a deep dive into older threads the collective wisdom of AK now has swayed me...

    McIntosh MR-67 panlocs question

    I am fairly new to McIntosh and I just bought a MR67 to go with my MA230 and I am really happy to have this classic combination finally. The MR67 performs well and came in its own L12 case with panlocs. This came from an original owner so I don't think the panlocs have been used much in the...

    Fisher repair in NYC?

    Can anyone recommend a competent tech in NYC? I have recently purchased a KX-100 that has some problems that I cannot quite figure out. It seems that the right channel will clip when the volume is turned past 5 on the volume knob. I can put the balance all the way to the left and everything...

    Problem with Grant Fidelity Tube DAC-11

    I bought this unit used about 6 months ago and have had no issues with it since I set it up. In fact I loved the sound that came from it. I was using it to run the sound from a Samsung TV, through the optical link, and running it into an aux input on my amplifier. I also ran a USB to hook up...
