    West Orange, NJ: JBL C37, Hartley, vintage test gear, etc

    https://www.estatesales.net/NJ/West-Orange/07052/2787936 Curious if anyone attended this sale at opening on Friday. A buddy of mine who does not know vintage audio super well was there for the reels and another attendee making small talk said something about another person scoring multiple...

    Clifton NJ: Nakamichi Dragon + ZX-7, Luxman integrated, Pioneer TTs, etc

    I'm not terribly surprised @KiM3Ce did not make a thread already, as only the pictures gave this one away, no mention of the audio at all in the ad text: https://www.estatesales.net/NJ/Clifton/07011/1912122 I was #9, really more like #5 with all the no shows, and was the first person looking...

    please help ID: Western Electric 8A magnet

    Picked this up at an estate sale yesterday. It's a heavy, and very strong handheld magnet in a plastic casing. The red decal on the side is a warning to keep it away from machinery, etc. Google has been no help to me, but my best guess given the square notch in the bottom is perhaps it's a tape...

    Englewood NJ Kenwood tube receiver AR + Dual turntables, Dynaco speakers

    Started this morning, although not terribly exciting: https://www.estatesales.net/NJ/Englewood/07631/1657962 I took the AR XA turntable (early 2 motor model, but in rough shape) and Kenwood KW-50 tube receiver (bottom pic, bottom of left-side stack). The Dual turntable (didn't pay attention...

    Fair Lawn, NJ: "Fischer" custom console

    It sold to one of the first 5 people in the door, but I figured it's worth documenting here: https://www.estatesales.net/NJ/Fair-Lawn/07410/1627602 Fisher 100T preamp/tuner Dynaco ST70 amp Rek-O-Kut turntable (Rondine Jr. L-34 or similar) with arm ElectroVoice SP15 speaker drivers unexciting...

    tube amp ID please

    It's paired with a Dynakit PAS 2 pre-amp and AR XA turntable. I'm guessing once told it'll be completely obvious, as I'm sure I've seen exactly that style of transformer cover before.

    speaker ID: 1960s (or 50s?) blonde cabinet

    Any clue? I'm thinking the sloped wide sides will be the giveaway, but I can't place it. Looks like a large (15"?) driver and then a port on bottom, or horn?

    Wayne NJ - Aerial Acoustics 7, a/d/s Sub 12, Tandberg 64

    https://www.estatesales.net/NJ/Wayne/07470/1393731 I was at this one when it opened. I thought the Tandberg 64 reel-to-reel in the pics (asking $150) was a good sign that other high quality older components could be hiding in the house, and I was proved right when a guy ahead of me in line...

    Livingston NJ - JBL L56 + 2 pairs L86

    https://www.estatesales.net/NJ/Livingston/07039/1391931 I showed up to this one a few hours late and all the not-so-exciting 1980s stereo components were sold except for the tape deck. But there was a pair of JBL L56 mounted on the wall in the basement (one is visible in the 1st pic of the...

    speaker ID: mid-century modern, divided grill, overhanging top

    Thoughts?: I was also thinking maybe organ speaker, but don't see an organ in the house.

    Marantz tube-era VU meter unit?

    Staten Island NY Audio Reseach amp+pre, big Infinity speakers

    KiM3Ce probably missed this one thanks to "Xfinity" typo and the company not even mentioning the other stereo gear: https://www.estatesales.net/NY/Staten-Island/10304/1242855 Unfortunately prices were high, although I think there's a good opportunity to win on a bid on Sunday. From memory...

    Ringwood NJ (sale done): McIntosh 75 tube amps

    Sale is over, but worth seeing the McIntosh amps: http://www.estatesales.net/NJ/Ringwood/07456/890688 They were priced at $1,350 each, and were cosmetically strong with just a bit of pitting to the chrome, but the estate sale company had no idea of their working condition, no documentation...

    Washington Township NJ The Fisher integrated and tuner

    Was on my list today, but I got stuck in the house: http://www.estatesales.net/NJ/Township-Of-Washington/07676/891222 Probably sold to the first person in the door, but I'd love to hear what else was there. Speakers? Or are these part of a console?

    Playboy Mansion hifi 1967: Marantz, Rek-O-Kut and what?

    I recently picked up this great original photo from the archives of the Chicago Tribune: It's stamped Sep 30 1967 on back, and a blurb pasted on back says: The stereo control center in the main room of the Playboy Mansion, Editor-Publisher Hugh M. Hefner's private residence on...

    Wyckoff NJ: Sony ES tape+cd, Denon receiver

    http://www.estatesales.net/estate-sales/NJ/Wyckoff/07481/843117 I was here around noon and most of the stereo was still there because it was overpriced. I know there's a Sony 901ES double tape deck, which is a Dolby S model, complete with the wood side panels. It was marked at $75, maybe...

    Colonia NJ - Pioneer RT-901 reel-to-reel deck

    http://www.estatesales.net/estate-sales/NJ/Colonia/07067/828060 All the audio gear in the pics is junk, but in the basement there's a Pioneer RT-901 marked at only $50. It powers up, but I couldn't get it to function. It's quite possible I missed something stupid as it threads quite...

    Good vintage tonearms for dedicated 78s turntable?

    I run a separate turntable for playing 78s, as my main one does not have a tonearm with a removable headshell and I don't use a cartridge that also accepts a 78 stylus. I don't even like that solution anyway as you still need to readjust the tracking weight when you switch cartridges. I'm...

    Chester NJ Thorens 124 w/ SME 12" arm, tube amps, etc

    I'm surprised no one posted this one yet: http://www.estatesales.net/estate-sales/NJ/Chester/07930/805044 I decided not to make it my first stop because I can think of 2-3 eBay flippers in the area who would line up at 4 AM for that turntable. I arrived shortly after noon and was told it...

    Cranford NJ single Wharfedale 70 + hacked Capehart 400

    http://www.estatesales.net/estate-sales/NJ/Cranford/07016/802767 I actually went to this sale yesterday, saw the Capehart (pic #9) marked at $525 and for whatever reason my brain was not working and I forgot this model is the one which is likely to have the Western Electric 728B in it. I...

    Wyckoff NJ Snell speakers, Denon turntable + CD

    I visited this one mid-late afternoon today: http://www.estatesales.net/estate-sales/NJ/Wyckoff/07481/798849 Snell Type E II speakers are in picture 33. They are asking only $75/pair. Cosmetically the cabs are great, but they need refoaming, based on the one I checked. Surely a great...

    console/speaker ID

    Anyone seen this one before? Mostly curious what drivers might be inside the speakers, as the electronics were clearly ripped out of the console and replaced (with NAD or what? On 2nd thought, looks a little too busy to be NAD gear.)
