Dynaco/Dynakit ST-70 vintage amplifier - $825 (Omaha)

I had a chance to buy one last summer for 800.00. It was upgraded to maximize it's potential. The nice guy said he paid 500 for the upgrade. It was pristine!
I almost bought it.
Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

They are actually 20th century tech, as are solid state amps... My Tubes would give your Pass X600's a run for their money.

If I lived close to Omaha I would have the sub and amp. That amp sounds great if working at full potential.Yep, my name really is Bob.
Parasound HCA1500A(indoor sound) and HCA1000(outdoor sound), Dynaco PAS4, Denon DP1200 w/Shure V15 Type V and Jico SAS stylus, Marantz UD7007, Polk L600, Rythmik L12 sub. -
I had that Energy sub and if I were anywhere near Omaha I would be all over that, if its working properly that'd be the best $20 you ever spent.

Hahah, well, I thought I was done with one and started the other. Then I realized I never hooked the parallel caps upto the ground. I'm not so sure I'm following the schematic correctly. Honestly I'm regretting not just paying a pro to do them.
@VR3 , is it to late to send ya everything??? 😆
As far as what else do I have hiding in the corner...... I have some Infinity IRS series V sitting on the back porch. But I think the FL humidity is not good for them. Too big to put in the house. They are next to some Wilson Watt Puppies and Polk SRT system. -
