    what are you listening to?

    Obviously not loud enough if the meter switch is at -20dB

    I Need a Part

    Unfortunately the housing was not sent as part of this upgrade. Maybe check with @Gibsonian if he still has the original chassis.

    700B WOPL Candidate

    Someone should jump on this for a full WO upgrade. https://www.ebay.com/itm/116144678963?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=uMW5T2FqTG2&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=VbGzxrohS-6&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

    Linda - Rode hard and abused

    Take a wet cloth and run over the surface of the meter lens to eliminate static. The meter should return to normal resting location.

    Sorry, correct - a pair of Model One to adequately drive those SuperTowers full range.

    It’s a shame wild Bob lost out to the bean counters. I feel fortunate that his company made as many as they did for us to upgrade and work on 30-40 years later. I’ll keep building as long as people have an interest… Assuming Joe continues supplying quality parts.

    Agree, it appears someone tried to update this amp and gave up. All fuses were blown and multiple output drivers were missing. Several remaining output drivers were also shorted.

    Yeah, I hate to see this kind of work. It gives a bad rap to people that actually know how to correctly work on this equipment.
