Sleeper Vintage Tube Gear?


Hello All,

I'm pretty good with a soldering iron, used to be a tech, and have built a few guitar amps from scratch as well as repaired/modded others soooooo…….

Any recommendations of vintage sleeper tube amps or preamps (home audio) that I can look for to repair, upgrade, modify that would be relatively inexpensive, say $200 each ?

Thanks

On the Bay there are a lot of different vintage amps you can acquire for this purpose. Many of them are amp "pulls" form old tube console's like Magnavox, Fisher, Eico, Sears, Silvertone, Stromburgh Carelson, Sherwood...

Search "vintage tube amp" on EBay and you will find a plethora of such equipment.

Thanks Rodge827. What I guess also I'm looking for are suggestion of "what" to turn it into once I purchase and amp, preamp, or integrated amp.
If you can find Dynaco tube gear and repair and improve cosmetics at a reasonable price there are always buyers for this brand. Look at Ebay for same, prices vary according to condition.

A more obscure option is older FM tuners. There are still fans for the top rated models.

When I say top rated, visit FM Tuner Info which is run by one of my audio group members. Typically Kenwood and Sansui models move pretty well, some fetch as much as a thousand dollars.
