Classe Seventy amp found in alley


Sitting in my downtown alley was this Classe Seventy amp. Other than a little bit dirty and having some sort of felt glued all over the top, its condition is good. And after hooking my Dynaco preamp up to it with some average speakers, it works fine. I'm still trying to figure out if I stumbled onto an abandoned, stolen item or maybe it was found in a move-out pile and the scrounger couldn't sell or trade it so he dumped it where I found it. It's kind of heavy. So did I find something desirable?

If you have the serial number, I'm sure that Classe could tell you when it was made.

IIRC, that model was in production from around 1992 through 1998 or so. I might be off a couple of years.
According to the Orion Audio Blue Book, the 70 was made in 1992, has 75 watts per channel and had a list price of $1195.00.
Keep it but report it to the local police department that you found it and give them the model number and serial number. This way, if it was or is reported stolen, you won't be held responsible.
