The flippers will be waiting in line. Probably have to spend the night to be in front.

At least it's down San Diego way and not somewhere back east in the middle of a massive freeze out. I'm sure that they know exactly what the going rate for that gear is and have priced accordingly.

Need everything else in that room to go with it. Carpet too.

And just for good measure a Nak tape deck and Mc CD player.

God, it does look like a time warp. Couldn't resist aging the photo appropriately.

I want the credenza.

Wow,all we need now is the hot chick in a tight pencil dress,high heels carrying a forty pound turkey on a platter,some slicked-back geezer smoking a pipe,and the dorky kid with his dog; Norman Rockwell, eat your heart out!!

That would be hard to sneak by the wife, she would notice that for sure. Maybe hide it with house plants. Never had a fichus.

That is the classic installation for a well-heeled buyer from about 1961 or so. Amazing it

I was _given_ a similar console by my step mother in law who had purchased it in 1963 w/sales receipt and all manuals. Had a Mac MX-110, MC-225 along with JBL speakers in the matching side cabinets. The killer was that I'd visited her house many, many time and never asked what was under the sheet with all the little knick-knacks on it.

Imagine my surprise when she asked me if I wanted her old stereo and then removed all that stuff and opened the lid! Her only requirement of me was that I had to take the entire 10 feet of console with the gear in it. I backed my truck up about a week later!

Cheers,

David

End up gutted, most likely.

That gear looks clean enough to eat off of, even after all those years.

My Dad had that particular model of Ampex reel to reel deck from the mid 60s as I recall.

 

[lokerola]

Hell, I'll take the lamp and art work and let you guys fight over the audio gear.

 

[Marine0811]

All I can say is folly huck. Someone sure knew what they were buying in sixties! And I’ll bet it still works flawlessly

Looked like my grandparents room.

 

[slow_jazz]

Awesome console...

 

[dmckean]

I can understand why he never felt the need to upgrade.
