SAE Mark IVD Photos

While I had it apart I snapped a few shots of my SAE Mark IVD power amp. My cousin bought an SAE Mark IV new in 1975, and has had it ever since. He said he used it as a PA amp for his band for a while. I bought this one on his recommendation a couple of months ago and I am very happy with the sound.

This one has no controls, switches, or frills of any kind, just a power cord and a blue indicator light. It's very conservatively rated at 100 Watts/ch. I believe the power supply rails are at +/- 53 V.

Very nice, buckle. Very rugged-looking construction.

Just picked up a fixer-upper. Every screw was lost by the previous owner but it looks fixable. Somebody replaced some of the driver board caps with 85c nichis but I'll probably kick all the caps out for Panasonic FC 105cs. Haven't checked the outputs or drivers but the fuses were all good so I think all I will need to do is regrease the pads after the recap.
