    HH Scott 370R restored and sounding Great

    Last year I obtained a scott 340R and restored it kind of on a "whim". It was a nice looking piece of equipment especially after being cleaned up. I re-capped the entire unit and aligned the FM section. When I was finisged I was very inpressed with how great the 340R sounded so I did a bit of...

    HH Scott Stereomaster 340b — Service Advice

    I got a little carried away yesterday morning and accidentally won an auction for a Scott 340b with a nice wood case. I got it for a decent price but will have to pay for shipping — and I have no idea what shape the receiver is in, other than that it's cosmetically pretty good. Even if it starts...

I had this one in my inventory for a while and I finally decided to give it a go since I felt it wasn't a unit I wanted to keep... also another thread where somebody was asking about the idler sizes gave me some motivation to address this beast. I have...

    Scott A437 Strange noise in both speaker

    My Scott A437 amplifier makes a strange noise on both speakers when turning on. After that, it works correctly. Could you also help me with the Bias adjustment? Where should I place the probes and which resistor should I adjust to get 5mV? Thank you very much for your help

    Can anyone help me find a replacement dustcover for my 1990s Scott PS4004 Linear Tracking turntable?

    Can anyone help me find a replacement dustcover for my 1990s Scott PS4004 Linear Tracking turntable? It has a crack down the middle from something falling on it. I tried gluing it but no luck. It has a very specific, somewhat unique shape, etc., and I'm surprised at how hard it's been to find...

    HH Scott SP440 Pair

    A local acquaintance auditioned some SP440s for me recently. They actually sound quite good and are very solidly built. He'll part with them for next to nothing for the pair; they're large and taking up space he wants to use for something else and I have a couple of albums he wants. Notice...

    Scott Stereomaster 341 Info Needed

    I was given this receiver to restore, but can find very little info online. Can anyone supply or point me to a service manual and/or schematic for it? It appears to be similar to a model 342, but I'd like to know what the differences are.

    Kt-120 compatibility with Scott LK-150 tube amp

    Hey everyone, I'm in the process of picking up a Scott LK-150 but unfortunately it has no tubes. I was wondering if anyone here has tried KT120 tubes on this amp or of they draw too much current to be safely used here. When it gets here this piece is going to need a decent amount of work before...

    I have restored about a dozen Fisher amplifiers of various types (KX-100, KX-200, 400, X202-B) and have enjoyed learning as I went with the help of folks on this forum. Folks here have a high regard for HH Scott equipment and I have been looking to acquire one to restore.

    Scott R 376 FM Mute Function

    Greetings, The FM Mute function seems to have a little issue on my Scott R 376. It seems to mute very well as you tune higher past a strong station but not so well if you tune lower past a strong station. It doesn't seem to mute very well on the lower frequency side of a strong station. It...

    Scott LK-72 Selector Switch Siezed

    Hey, so this is a first for me... Have a Scottkit here with a selector switch that seems to have literally turned to stone. I've tried applying heat, pliers, and even penetrating oil with no luck. Anyone have luck freeing up a frozen switch like this? Literally seems like the thing is glued in...

    Klipsch KG 5.5 vis-a-vis Zu Dirty Weekend

    Choosing between a KG 5.5 OR Zu DW to pair with my Scott 222. Thoughts on how they would differ? Anybody matched either speakers to a low watt tube amp? Very slim picking in my part of the world, so not too many choices for highly efficient speakers.
