Hi folks,
I've got a move coming up and have to shrink down my audio gear I really need to simplify things so I'm calling on Ak'ers to help make the tough decisions. I will only have space for 4-5 amplifiers so I need to sell up, if any of these are stand outs and should be repaired and put into use or any opinions on which units people would suggest keeping please let me know.
Amps:
Marantz PM-19 *in use as main setup (my only newish amp I've seen selling used for around 700USD apparently a good one but there's little info available online)
Toshiba sc-335 power and matching sy-335 Pre *in use bedroom setup
Akai AA-1050 receiver ( from heavy smoker's house - working great though)
Akai AA-1040 (one channel not working replaced with the aa-1050)
Pioneer A-5 (bought it serviced)
Sansui Au-g33x ( fine except balance pot not working)
JVC 4VN-550 (I'm not a fan of the sound of this one)
Realistic STA-90 receiver ( one channel blown but was a great warm sound before it blew)
Yamaha A-500 (one channel blown- was very clean and sweet sounding before)
Hitachi ha-300 (failed repair needs new transistors and maybe more)
Hitachi SR-903 (a Big Beast its works fine but one channel occasionally drops out and is always about 20% quieter than other)
Denon PMA-530 (Misled by buyer - ended up being Japanese model so needs a step down transformer to run)
Speakers:
I need to decide between my Wharfedale linton 3xp and Sansui SP-70.
Keeping B&O beovox s75 (getting tweeter repaired- Great 4 way sound and design), Realistic minimus-26 and JPW sonatas
All gear was bought second hand but in working condition from private sellers, and the units have died over the years. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
