Re: Vintage Radios

I know a couple of them work and they are all complete and should work with little effort, he was a T.V./radio repairman.

Re: Vintage Radios

hey cheyenne shortstep, you into old amps? I built new dynakit monobloc amps (exact same amp as the 60's only better) driven through a dynakit pas 2 preamp driving klipsch premium speakers. Tube amps and tube preamps are fantastic. Sold all of my solidstate stuff years ago. The klipsch speakers use exponential horns for mids and highs as this was their signature design. Until you hear second order harmonics (tube amps) in comparison to third order harmonics (solid state) you don't know what you are missing. Brian F.

Re: Vintage Radios

I'm not really into old radios and equipment I just happened upon these when my buddies dad passed, I did get this 1941 Philco car radio Model AR-75 at Pomona Swapmeet this weekend. I am into anything old and cool.

Re: Vintage Radios

Very cool stuff guys, I run a dynaco pas 2 and a couple tube amps that came from late 50s stereo consoles.
