    I saw some amps I could afford but they're probably just boat anchors now. :D

    As it turns out I knew this fellow and have had several deals with him in the past. Sadly he's no longer with us as I just found out. I knew he was a collector but I had no idea that he took it to that extreme. Rip Walt

    You have to credit Walt with having a plan in place for the proper redistribution of this gear back into the market. Too many times, this is left to chance and gets destroyed.

    McIntosh turns 70 in 2019.
    2 channel: Anthem 225 Integrated amp; Parasound Ztuner; TechnicsTT SL1350; Vincent PHO-8 phono pre; Marantz CD6005 spinner; Polk SDA2BTL's; LAT International speaker cables, ZU Mission IC's and power cables all into a PS Audio Dectet Power center.

    Other; S60'S, M10 series II, M7C's, Hafler XL600 amp, RB-980BX, Parasound HCA-1500 amp , P5 preamp, all in storage. All vintage Polk have had crossover rebuilds and tweeter upgrades.

    There are three things that give a man a false sense of courage, a keyboard, alcohol and a firearm.
