The Audio Rig Thread

[MCS Guy]

Well, since there isnt an organized thread for racks and rigs, I figured I start one.

Can you guess all the receivers in the pics?

And my wife thinks I'm the only crazy one out there! "What is that?"
"Why do you need another one of those?"
I'm sure you heard those before!

Wow, you have some hot pieces in your collectiong :yes:

I'd love to know what that thing is, in rack pic 1, with the small CRT; it looks really neat :thmbsp:

 

[MCS Guy]

You mean the MCS VTR audio scope?

Well I see some MCS stuff. two 3125s, what looks like a 3275. A Realistic but I can't remember all their models, that would be a lot to remember. The one thats there matches my 6801 CD player, what is that... was it the 3285? Ever open one of those 3285s, if that the one I am thinkin of they have a torroidal tranny mounted sideways in the case, once nice piece of gear.

I taught I saw a putty Kat!! Actually I did spot what looked to be two different Hitachi's. I am a GIGANTIC FAN of the SR-2004 and own two of them, I have yet to hear a better all around receiver :thmbsp: I have for comparison in my arsenal an SX-1980, 9090, G-9000, SX-5590 and soon to arrive G-22000 all fed through two Seeburg DDS-1 Dance hall speakers that I got from a recording studio, I figured if they were good enough to be used as studio monitors then they should be good enough for my living room
