Heathkit

I don't know squat about the old Heathkit valve amps.A guy at work says he has one in his garage .( non working ) Asked me if I wanted it for parts.. It took me about a nanosecond to say .. Hell yes. Have no clue what model it is and he couldn't remember. It will be interesting ...

Heathkit made everything from perfectly OK tube amplifiers to amplifiers for the ages.
Nothing to lose, there.

I have the AA-32 Valve/Tube amp, 8 watts per channel.

Sounds GREAT!

Thanks,
