    My new HH Scott 299

    I picked up a Scott 299 recently. Missing all 12ax7 tubes, one 7189 and a 5AR4 tube. Looks like it is a 299; not a A, B, C, or D. Serial number 40812. I did find some NOS 6BL8 tubes in my stash. I plan to clean it up, replace or bypass the PS caps, add fresh coupling caps and get it...

    HH Scott 357 Documentation Request

    Hi all! I have acquired an HH Scott 357 (not 357B or R357) and I'm struggling to find any documentation for this unit. I would love to get a downloadable Operator and Service Manual. If anyone has a connection to either, I'd appreciate the chance of acquiring. Thanks in advance!

    Proper Name for Type of Resistors

    Can anyone tell me the proper name for the resistors I've attached a photo of (R1, R101, R4, R104)? I think they are some type of wire wound and perhaps used for protecting circuitry? They go to the Emitter circuit for the Audio Output transistors on a H. H. Scott 367 Receiver, Circa 1971/2...

    Scott 299B Blown Fuse

    Hello all! I love my Scott Amp, it sounds so good and was working perfectly for a year. A few months ago the fuse blew. It was a quick blo fuse so I tried another as I thought maybe it was a bad fuse, but same results. I let it chill for awhile. Now since I have time I thought I’d look into it...

    Fisher KX-100 vs. Scott LK-48 + speaker recs

    Hi, i'm pretty new to hifi/audio in general. I sold 2 SL-1200s last year and have been thinking about what I want my new setup to be. I'm partial to vintage gear and I always loved the sound of my dad's tube amps growing up, so I'm leaning heavily towards starting with an integrated tube amp and...

    HH Scott Pro 100 vs Realistic Mach Two

    I have two pairs of vintage 15" floor speakers I picked up on the cheap, but each with issues - a pair of 1976 HH Scott Pro 100 (non-original woofers (!), no grilles) and more recently a pair of 1984 Realistic Mach Two (very nice shape but needed refoam of woofers and mids). I hooked them both...

    My Scott LK-72 Restoration -LONG Journey But Not There Yet

    Back around 1995 I saw a "Free" post in HP's internal ads for a Scott LK-72. Luckily I was the first to claim it (a gold-face, neatly built unit, in mostly pristine condition). It came with original instruction book and a note saying one of the 0.1 uf was leaking and needed replacement. As...

    Scott PS 87 question.

    Just a quick question. I've got a Scott PS 87 turntable and it's missing the original dustcover and finding the PS 87 replacement has been nearly impossible. My question is, can another Scott turntable dustcover (67, etc) be used? I seem to be able to find some models easier than others. This...

    Scott 399c with wood case in vintage condition

    My Scott 399c looks ugly as hell in nude. I have seen them transform in a elegant beauty when paired with original wood case. So I am always on the look out for original wood cabinet for my 399 for a while now. As part of my auction site ritual, I was checking for wood case for my 399c and I saw...

    Anyone ever bypass the Scott PEC filter 299 ?

    Not even sure what it does , is it part of the Scott Dynaural filter ? Does the Scott 233/299 series have a subsonic filter ? As in a fixed filter. The reason I ask is, I am rebuilding a Scott 233 and the line stage is very dynamic and full sounding, but the phono stage is lackluster and the...

    HH SCOTT 233 rebuild

    I just took possession of a very nice Scott 233, completely original as far as I could tell. I ran it up on a variac to 117vac , did a few voltage checks and set the bias and balance. Sounded pretty good a bit muddy and blurry and hum. I played it awhile anyway to get a good feel for it. Next I...
