8 track was the thing while I was in high school as well. I was one of the first kids to have a cassette deck. Audiovox I think, cant remember for sure. Two PA horns and two co ax in the back panels of the 1974 Nova. Those were the days. Before I found, yes found the Black Sabbath cassette on the ground at a traffic light (looked out the window and there it was) I was listening to Van Halen, AC/DC Hank Williams Jr. Still like listening to them all.

You're ok for more than a watt or two, kick it up to 50.......still got the DC protect in there??

 

[VSAT88]

So glad >You Guys< got it up and running is more like it. Oh yes. Hooked that DC protect right back up. Got it on my workshop 901's. I will kick it up a bit tomorrow. No crappy, I have never had this thing running more than about 40 50 watts. Too damn loud.

 

[laatsch55]

I used to soak my old 901's with everything my Spec 2 had...

 

[Bradrock]

I'm still rocking my 901's on the cool stands that I bought in 1973. I usually don't admit it on an audio forum! Sure would not on AK! They seem to be a joke to most folks.

 

[laatsch55]

i USED TO HANG MINE FROM THE CEILING and had a pair of Magnavox boxes that had a 15" woof and a 12 inch horn. Had a Magnavox receiver drive the boxes and the Spec 2 on the 901's.....it got loud. I then sold the 90's and bought some Ohm Model F's.....destroyed those, mailed em back and got a brand new set because they were originally shipped with a 5 amp fuse instead of a 4. Sold those, bought some Klipsch Kornerhorns, sold those and went without speaks for a bit, new dad and broke. Then bought plans for Speakerlab Model K's and built a set in my Bud's basement. That was 25 years ago. Still have em. Upgraded drivers 6 years ago, and just upgraded crossovers for the second time......

The along came White Oak....

901's rock dude, and they will soak up some wattage...

 

[VSAT88]

Say what they will but yes, they will rock the house. Mine are beat to shit. Series 1 1972 I think. Series II EQ with new lytics. This amp will (I hope) mate with a pair of original AR 3's. Of course gotta try it with the SDA-SRS 2's first. Oh yes !

 

[laatsch55]

That should drive any of them.....need to White Oak that bugger or hold out for a 700, then White Oak that...

 

[VSAT88]

I ain't gonna lie. Every since I hit this site and started reading the ole mouth has begun to slobber for a 700 to save up for WOPLin.

 

[VSAT88]

Was looking on ePay for one last night....I could save a bit at a time for all the parts..Yes.

 

[laatsch55]

That's the cool part of White Oak, a bit at a time.....

 

[VSAT88]

Am I looking for a 700 B ? I have a Fisher 500 C in pretty good shape that I could sell pretty easy to get a start on the $

 

[laatsch55]

700B, Series II, same amp, they are all the same after White Oaking, your just looking for a transformer and meters...Joe makes Series II meters, faceplates, heatsinks, Chassis, LED light boards.....

 

[VSAT88]

Almighty then. Sounds good. Night yall.

 

[laatsch55]

Nite James, good job...

She has been up and running for hours now at 35-40 watts. Cookin with grease ! OPT are cool. Very little heat. It runs just like it did before I attacked it. I do have a question of course. Should I leave the PL 909 transistors in or buy all new. If so I want to make sure I buy the right ones. MJ15024 or MJ21195/MJ21196 ? Those numbers I found as suggestions on the web. I have enough MJ15024's to do 12 top OPT (they are used). Just asking. If I do not need to change them I would be very happy.
