mcgowen, macgowen, somthing of the sort. It was a company from illinois. came across what appears to be a mono preamp and a mono 100 watt amp made by this company. I figured I'd search the web before I bought them to make sure they're worth it. price is 50.00 each. anyone know what company I'm talking about? I could kick myself, I can't remember how it was spelled.

thanks a ton

That would be Don McGohan... early - mid 50s. Nice stuff, but kinda uncommon - I'd probably offer less... especially for the preamp. 100 Watts is probably the input power - maybe 20 Watts output. Could tell better If I knew what tubes it uses...

I see 10 different McGohan model numbers listed in Sams Photofacts... I probably have a few of the folders.
 
thanks for the info. I believe that was the name. they're kind of heavy duty industrial type units. the front of the amp said, "100 watt amplifier." they're interesting looking, they're both in this industrial blue color. I think these were meant for pro use or commercial at leat as the preamp has microphone inputs on the back. if they are pro or commercial units, do you think they're still worth getting?
