I wonder if these are AR-1's

some of the goodies:
perchdog
AudioDouchebag
Did the AR-1 come in cabinets like those? I thought they had a more faceted look near the baffle, but I've never seen a pair in person. They look like the thinner AR-2 cabinets to me. Either way...this sale is loaded with goodies.

I was just taking a guess based on the other gear. I am no expert on this but they look similar.
Considering the rest of the gear, whatever they are they are probably very good.
Okay guys, I beat you to the sale. Now please be sitting down as I tell you the prices, she made me a little list.
Nakamichi 1000ZL Computing Cassette Deck $1,200.00
McIntosh C32 Stereo Preamp $1,600.00
McIntosh Model MR73 FM/AM Tuner $650.00
McIntosh MC 2205 Stereo Power Amp $1,500.00
Nakamich Dragon Auto Reverse Tape Deck $1,200.00
Jim Lansing Signature Model 375 Pair $2,500.00 (Large)
Jim Lansing Signature Model 375 Pair $800.00 (Small)
So even if they went to 75% off they would still be out of our league. But I must commit that it is a very gorgeous setup

Ouch!
I have a friend up your way whose girlfriend dances at a Chicago strip club. He has an interesting life, to be sure. :scratch2:
Estate sales are really hit-and-miss for me. Garage sales work out the best.
You'd think someone running a high-end estate sale would be able to spell. "Modal?"
I have better furniture luck than stereo luck at estate sales, but even then, the good stuff is gone or overpriced by the time I wake up and get there.
I knew a stripper...pulled in about $350,000 a year making (mostly) false promises.
One of my good friends from high school did that for a while...she made good cash. Really good.
You have to get up early in the AM. My best garage sale vinyl score was at 7am on the way to work - they hadn't even put the records out when I got there. I had about 10 minutes to work before the next person showed up to look.
Yep I am learning this but my body isn't lol I got up at 4am to get my ess audio stuff. I am keeping in contact with the guy at this sale, and trying to get an idea of what they might come down to. I want to go Sunday but I still think they will be out of my limit, I would like to crack open the jbl's :yes:
Good luck...at those prices, that gear may very well not sell and they could come down significantly at the end of the last day (or not...but sometimes they do).
I am NOT a morning person, but I'll force myself up to hit a good sale before work. Probably doing it this morning, actually.
