HH Scott Owners Thread

Got a bunch-o-Scott tube gear, several of which have been brought back to spec by Dave451, and in one case (272) with great difficulty due to horrific prior owner mods. My list (contact me if you are interested in any as I'm in the process of rehoming gear--but keeping several for the rotation). Most are in unrestored condition, many are fully working, some completely restored.

Amps: 200B, 208 (2), 222A (1), 222C (2), 233 (2), 272, 296, 299, 299B, LK 4848B, LK72 (3) one gold/two brown, LK 150

Pre-amps: 121B (mono), 122, 130 (2), LC 21 (2) one brown

Pre-Tuner: 355

MPX: LM35, 335 (2)

Receivers: 340, 340B, 345, 380, 399 (2)

Consoles: Consolette 610/560

Tuners: 310 C, D, E (restored),314, 330C, 330D (2), 331B, 350 B, 350C, 370, LT10 (3),
LT 110 (2), LT 111 (2)

Thanks RD. Mid Century design is a thing here at our home. Started with furniture my folks bought while my dad was stationed in Germany during the Korean war. Danish and mid-century furniture was pretty plentiful and affordable once. Dad did have good taste in audio as well-left me a Marantz 7/8b with some Bozak 302A's. I built the tuner in junior high, a Dynaco FM-5 to replace his FM-1 that didn't tune/hold channels very well. Kinda wish he had the Marantz 10b! Had the requisite Garrard Lab 80 TT and a Roberts RTR, all of which I still have.

Well, yeah but someone used a pair of pliers to "straighten" the bent corners on one, so its really 1 1/2! :dunno:
 
Latest addition to the family, just arrived from e*ay--Stereomaster 4312 SS tuner- Scott's transistor-based broadcast tuner. This thing is a beast! Gonna need a refresh but can't wait to compare it to some of the other legendary tuners in the stable...

I just joined today because I'm starting to restore this Berkeley console. As far as I can tell it includes Scott's Stereomaster receiver (model 2204 from my dad's handwriting in the owners manual?) and a Dual 1009 TT. I have the electronics out and am working on the speakers. I have removed all the nuts from front side of the speaker mounting posts but the unit won't budge and the back of the speaker enclosure is sealed like a coffin! Is it glued? Anyway, I'm more of a skilsaw and socket wrench person than a soldering iron and multi-meter guy. Doe's anyone know how I could use AK to find a local tube guru? I'm so green that I don't know if I have a tube amp or a solid state hybrid or something. You can all laugh now.20200728_130104.jpg 20200728_130124.jpg 20200728_130138.jpg 20200728_152752.jpg 20200730_114831.jpg
 
D0AD4EAF-4729-4B74-91B1-168D4917DFC8.jpeg My chocolate LK-72 and 350 tuner powering a pair of KEF REF102.
Amp is ‘as built’ with a mishmash of tubes. Still sounds outstanding and is very quiet.
Stereo reception with nothing more than rabbit ears is amazing.
Both pieces and the teak KEFs are in perfect cabinets.
 
Can anyone help me identify the model number of this Stereomaster receiver from the pictures? In the corner of a schematic I have is written "Model 2204" in my fathers handwriting but Scotts website has no 4 digit model numbers. I know the serial number. Can that be searched somewhere? Can someone confirm if this is considered a tube component or solid state from the top and bottom views? TIA!!

Neat looking console, WildJeep. Don't know that Scott receiver but it's definitely tubes. There's a page here with all the Scott models and manuals for downloading (I'll post it later this morning) but before you go digging through all that, I'm sure an expert will be able to identify what you have.

Welcome to AK!

**Oh yeah, don't plug it in just yet. You're going to want to have someone go through it first. Unless you know about bringing it up slow and safe, best leave that to the pros
 
There are no output transformers but there are two output coupling capacitors for the four transistors hidden at the rear of the chassis.
Can you spell 'Hybrid' ?

Are you commenting on my "Model 2204" Berkeley component? I suspected it might be a hybrid. Thanks for your input!

Yeah, I paused when I saw the heatsinks towards the back of the unit but when I looked, I couldn't see transistors underneath? But, I agree, it looks like some type of hybrid. Good call @NoTransistors :)

as promised, under AK forums, in the section called Digital Docs (I always forget about this location!):

Happy digging :)

I had a Copley console, which was probably assembled similarly. The woofers were held in place by screws, and sealant around the frames. They were a sealed enclosure. I didn't see a way the woofers could be easily removed from the baffle. The speaker enclosure is screwed, glued, wood jointed into the console.
