A DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THIS BEAUTIFUL, CLEAN, AND RARE VINTAGE PACKARD. BELL EL84 STEREO TUBE AMPLIFIER IS PROVIDED AFTER THE PHOTOS. PLEASE SCROLL DOWN TO SEE THE DESCRIPTION. It is made by Packard-Bell and is one of the nicest and cleanest looking versions of this particular amplifier that I have ever seen. This amplifier has a shiny and very clean chassis along with a very large power transformer and matching output transformers. It has a wonderful look to it and it would make a great addition to any vintage tube amplifier collection. DETAILED INFORMATION INVOLVING THE AMPLIFIER. As the photos show, the amplifier is very clean, shiny, and has a wonderful appearance in my opinion. It has a very retro appearance, as well as a clean and well-organized layout of tubes and components in my view. Please check out all of the photos that I have provided which show the amplifier from many different views. As shown in the photos, there is a small paper sticker on the amplifier chassis which has some information on it including an indication that this amplifier is a Model DPA-30-2. Evidently, the console that the amplifier came from was a Model RPC-12D, according to the sticker. The sticker also has the following additional information on it: Serial 2494 and PB# 71199. As mentioned above, this amplifier has a really unique and cool-looking appearance. Likewise, it is very clean and has a nice shine to it. Other than this information, I know nothing more about this amplifier and its history. As noted in this description, the amplifier chassis looks very nice and clean in my view. It does have some discolored areas, scuffs, scratches, bends, scrapes, marks, swirls, stains, dings, dents, rough spots, residue, etc. On it from age, use, etc. However, many or most of these items are too small to be picked up by the camera in the photos. It is a very distinctive and nice-looking amplifier in my view and please check out the photos for a variety of different views of this amplifier. Located on the top surface of the amplifier is a very large and unusual-looking power transformer which is painted black. This transformer is very big and heavy. This big transformer has a very distinctive and unique appearance as the photos show. The black paint on the transformer is nice, clean, and shiny-looking in my view. There are some paint chips, scuff, scratches, scrapes, etc. On the power transformer (especially on the top of it) but as noted above, it looks good in my opinion There are also 2 output transformers which are clean and shiny as the photos show. They are matching transformers in that they both have the same code numbers on them, namely, 89532 and 394108. I dont know if these power and output transformers are good, functional, original, operational, if they have been worked on or repaired, if they are complete, if they are correct and proper for this amplifier, etc. Also on the amplifier chassis are a number of other items. These items include: (A) 2 small jacks; (B) a large black plastic socket; (C) a small black plastic outlet; (D) 2 small semi-circular sockets adjacent the output transformers; and (E) 2 small side-mounted additional semi-circular sockets which are attached to the side of the amplifier chassis using a metal mounting bracket as shown in the photos. I know nothing about these jacks, sockets, and outlet, and I also do not know if they work, how they work, what they are supposed to do, if they are correct, if they are functional, if they are original, if they have been worked on or repaired, if they are complete, if they are correct and proper for this amplifier, etc. To the best of my knowledge, there is no on/off switch or other controls on this amplifier. I also do not know if the power cord/plug is good or not and if it is original, functional, operational, correctly-wired, correct and proper for this amplifier, etc. I not inspected or tested the power cord/plug (or any of the other components and parts used by the amplifier, as well as the amplifier as a whole) as noted herein. The top surface of the amplifier also includes a really cool-looking black plastic oval-shaped name-plate holder with a very interesting-looking metal name-plate in the center which says PACKARD BELL on it along with a PB logo. This name-plate is really interesting-looking! It does have some bends, uneven surfaces, scratches, etc. On it here and there but it looks really nice in my opinion. In addition, I dont know how the name-plate holder and name-plate are affixed to the chassis (possibly using some kind of adhesive but I dont really know). Likewise, I dont know if it is original or not (and goes with this particular amplifier) In any event, however, the name-plate is really nice-looking in my view and check it out in the photos that I have provided. Regarding the tubes which are included with the amplifier (and came with it when I bought it), they are all Packard-Bell brand tubes and it is quite unusual in my view to have all the tubes with the same brand on them that is on the amplifier. The tubes are as follows (see the photos of the tubes): (A) 6BQ5 (EL84); (B) 6BQ5 (EL84); (C) 6BQ5 (EL84); (D) 6BQ5 (EL84); (E) 7025; (F) 7025; and (G) 5U4GB. I did not test these tubes and I therefore do not know if they are good or not. Likewise, the graphics are smudged/missing/faint on one or more of the tubes. Also, affixed to one side of the power transformer is a paper tube diagram which lists the tubes and their locations. This paper diagram has some bumps, lumps, lines, creases, scuffs, hard-to-read portions, smears, etc. But is nearly all there as the photos show. I also did not check the tube sockets and I likewise cannot warrant or guarantee that they are good, original, and operational. I did notice that one of the EL84 tube sockets appears to be a bit different from the other EL84 tube sockets and is mounted using very small screws (instead of the rivets used by the other tube sockets). I also noticed that the EL84 tube fits more loosely in this socket than in the other sockets. Accordingly, this socket may need repair, replacement, or it may be OK I dont really know. Likewise, this socket may be a replacement done either at the factory or by someone else. However, I dont know if this is correct or not and I know nothing about this particular tube socket or any of the other tube sockets. Accordingly, I will leave all of the issues with all of the tube sockets and the tubes whether the tubes are good, whether the sockets are good, what sockets the tubes should be in, what the situation is regarding the above-listed socket, etc. Also, I have no idea if the wiring in the amplifier is correct or good and I dont know anything about the transformers used by the amplifier if they are correct, original, good, functional, etc. Regarding the electronic components used by the amplifier, I have provided an underside view of the amplifier in the photos which shows various components, parts, wires, etc. I have no idea if any work has been done on the amplifier in the past and if the components, parts, wires, etc. Are correct, original, appropriate and proper for this amplifier, if they are correctly wired/installed, etc. In summary, this amplifier is, in my view, really great-looking, clean, impressive, and has a very distinctive retro appearance. It is beautiful and one of the best-looking and cleanest versions of this amplifier that I have ever seen. I believe that it would make a wonderful addition to any vintage amplifier collection and a really fun item to own. I have not done anything to this amplifier and all of its parts, transformers, wires, electronic components, tubes, sockets, power cord/plug, capacitors, resistors, jacks, outlet, and all of its other components and I know nothing about their condition. The above-described amplifier may have been worked on, repaired, had parts replaced/repaired, had parts added/subtracted, and/or been modified by someone else in the past, but I dont know whether this is true or not. In this regard, I have done nothing to this amplifier and I have not inspected it (or any of its parts/components) internally or externally. However, I do not know how much work, parts, wires, wiring work/replacement, repairs, rewiring, upgrading, power transformer replacement/repair, output transformer replacement/repair, electronic components, power cord/plug replacement, additional parts, tubes, jacks, sockets, outlets, resistors, capacitors, plugs, etc. Likewise, the amplifier does not have a pilot light, tube shields, etc. Furthermore, no other items such as paperwork, instructions, schematics, boxes, cartons, or any other items are included with this amplifier. Likewise, it does not appear that there is any fuse in this amplifier it does not appear that there was ever one since there is no fuse-holder, etc. Although I dont know if this is correct or not and I cant tell if it currently has a fuse/fuse-holder or if it ever had one. I will leave any changes, modifications, repairs, inspections, assessments, tests, replacement of any parts, upgrades, corrections, rewiring, additions of any parts, subtractions of any parts, expansions, etc. This amplifier is quite heavy. While I will pack this item very securely, some of the wires, components, parts, capacitors, resistors, sockets, transformers, jacks, power cord/plug, name-plate, name-plate-holder, outlet, resistors, etc. Furthermore, the paper model number tag and the paper tube-diagram are very delicate (especially the tube-diagram) and may, in fact, partially or entirely come off, tear, rip, crumble, etc. However, I will do my best to try and prevent these situations by very carefully packing this amplifier although I cannot guarantee that they wont happen. Please make a note of this. Furthermore, all of the tubes, tube sockets, capacitors, resistors, jacks, transformers, power cord/plug, sockets, outlet, and all of the amplifiers other components/parts need to be checked out by an electronic expert to see if the tubes are good, if the tubes are the correct ones, if the tubes are in the correct sockets, and if all of the tubes, tube sockets, capacitors, resistors, jacks, transformers, power cord/plug, sockets, outlet, and all of the amplifiers other components/parts are good, correct, properly-wired, and operational before the amplifier is powered-up, tested, used, worked on, modified, connected to any other equipment, instruments, speakers, or components, connected to a power source/supply, plugged in, upgraded, etc. Likewise, I have no idea whether everything is original or not in the above-listed equipment and I therefore cannot make any warranties regarding originality. In this regard, I do not know if any of the parts, power transformer, output transformers, capacitors, resistors, jacks, sockets, outlet, and all of the other components used in the amplifier are original or if they have been replaced at some time in the past. I also do not warrant that this amplifier is complete and I do not know if there are any missing or incorrect parts/components, etc. The item “BEAUTIFUL AND RARE VINTAGE PACKARD BELL STEREO EL84 TUBE AMP AMPLIFIER” is in sale since Sunday, May 23, 2021.

Vintage HH Scott LK-72 Stereo Laboratory Tube Amplifier – Totally Redone. UPDATE – Almost forgot, comes with an original manual/schematics for this unit. This was my every day amp for…. It was in my office for another 1. I have had 3 other lk-72′s but I always kept this one. It just sounded perfect to me. The LK-72 is one of my 2 favorite vintage tube amps, along with the Sherwood S5000 series. Just has a great sound, layout and set of functions. Not that hard to work on either. This was the first amp my current tech worked on for me, YEARS ago. Because of this I no longer have all of the paperwork. However, you can see all of the work he has done and I will detail it as much as possible. I have a very detailed tech who doesn’t like to do things 1/2 way. He also refuses to use parts he does not like/he is not familiar with. The value of having a competent tech should not be underestimated. He is the 4th one I have used and by far the best. Take a look at the bottom of the unit POST updating. That is some neat work. NOTE ON COSMETICS – The front panel is Very Good. The paint used on these is REALLY delicate so clean it gently! Or not at all! The front panels on these are often pretty beat, not this one. The only real wear is around the Volume Knob, which is ALWAYS the case. This unit has the PULL on/off switch which I personally love. The 12AX7′s are vintage Mullards made in England. The 7591′s are Tung Sol (Russia). 6GH8′s are vintage Amperex (France). 3X CE CAN Replacement CAP’s (see pics). SEE PHOTOS of Bottom for other replaced bits (pretty extensive). I tried other 7591′s but for this amp I thought the Tung Sol’s were the best. This has been in my rotation for a good 2 or 3 years without issue. This is a great vintage tube amp in every regard. Alot of work went into making it such. Some day something on this will not work right but that is true of every piece of vintage audio equipment. The advantage with this unit is 1 all the stupid stuff has already been taken care of and 2 as it is a tube amp it is FAR easier to work on and tubes themselves are pretty simple to replace. If you have any questions ask them beforehand. I’ll be glad to answer them promptly.
