Removed Sansui 1000A (preamp and tuner) out of this system and replaced it with the CJ PV-10A. I am getting ready to add a Cinemag SUT and mount my Denon 103R to the SP-25. I also am getting ready to replace my original Altec crossovers with Markwardt crossovers. I am hoping this will be all I find necessary for a while.
I recently purchased this preamp and so far it is a major improvement over my previous Sansui 1000A.
Altec Lansing Model 17 (604-8G) factory 620A cabs
I bought these about 6 months ago at a church yard sale. $150 for the pair. 100db/watt/meter. I tried these with SS and I much prefer the tubes.
Marantz CC-65 se
Found this unit at a local HiFi shop. THey had taken it in on trade. It is in great condition and I needed a CD player in my system. $20, but it is missing the remote.
Technics SP-25
Found at yardsale with factory base and AT-1501 MK2 arm.
Audio Technica ATP-12T
Nice old arm for the money. High mass with adjustable VTA. Good value
Denon 103R
My first foray with LOMC. Will be adding a Cinemag SUT in the next couple of days.
Hi Steve. My bet is your equipment does not sound cheap. When I was a kid there was one store in my town that was for looking only. It was the store that sold McIntosh. I would go in there and drool all over the place. The store I could afford was called Lafayette, and I bought my 45s at a place that sold them for 25 cents after they pulled them from their juke boxes. Have fun rebuilding your collection.
