Nice! Out of my price range, though I have two of that amp and tuner already. One is in my living room stereo.

Thanks, that gear is so neatly designed!

What's the table?

Nice, but I don't know if it's $1200 nice. Not sure what the seller has against 6bq5 tubes/amps, mine make beautiful music. For posterity, this is from the ad:

This is a seriously cool HiFi system. It is all tube and modular, so you could remove the amplifiers and have them as discreet components--there are 4 big bolts that release them. The power tubes are four mighty 7025s. Super powerful and crisp with deep bass. There are 3 identical, removable speaker cabinets for stereo plus a "distance" speaker. The two primary speakers can nestle within the console cabinet (or not) and the third one has it's own matching cabinet within which it fits. The unit is in excellent condition and functions properly. If you are a HiFi person, then you recognize that this is not a cheap consumer grade affair with skinny little 6bq5s or the like. The cabinet appears to be teac. It has a very tasteful and minimal tung oil finish.

I think it's a reference to WPC, that's all.

Took me a while to decipher but apparently, the 2 main speakers are in separate cabinets and can be slid into the console or used externally?
Having a couple of S/C 6BQ5's which I like, if it was local and half the price I would like to try the 7025's.

But those are impossible if's.....
It's a beautiful piece, must have been expensive when purchased new.

Have to wonder how it got so far away from New York, maybe somebody moved to Texas from the East Coast?

Looks like a couple of Leslie speaker cabs in the back ground.

just sayin'
