Used McIntosh amplifier in very nice condition, no bubbles, clean face, sounds lovely with a mix of vintage tubes – McIntosh, Telefunken, and other brands. One guide pin is broken on a tube, but it still functions. Normal wear and tear expected with a 60-year-old vintage unit from the original owner. Please review the pictures and ask any questions before purchasing.
THIS WAS FOUND AT AN ESTATE AND HAS NOT BEEN USED FOR YEARS. THE FEW TUBES I TOOK OUT WERE ORIGINAL EICO. ONE OF THE METAL TUBE COVERS DOES NOT SEEM TO FIT ON THE TUBE RIGHT BUT WILL BE INCLUDED WITH THE AMPLIFIER. IT IS AS SHOWN. PLEASE LOOK AT ALL PHOTOS AND ASK ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. REMEMBER THAT I SELL MOSTLY ANTIQUE AND VINTAGE ITEMS AND THAT THEY ARE MOSTLY LIKELY NOT BE PERFECT DO TO THE NATURE OF THEIR AGE. IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE LEAVING FEEDBACK.
Pair of Scott 210F mono integrated amps. (You can watch a video on restoring these from Blueglow Electronics on YouTube). These should be gone through and recapped by a tech as any 60+ year old amp should be. The bumble bee caps are the later Mylar versions, which many say last well and don’t need to be replaced but that’s up to the restorer. Listed as for parts or not working just because it needs two power tubes and restoration but the transformers are tested as good. Amp 1 has all telefunken 12ax7 and 12au7 tubes but is missing the EL34 tubes. Amp 2 has rca 12ax7 and 12au7 tubes and Sylvania EL34 tubes. Amp 1 is missing the bottom plate screws so it is taped on. There is one missing resister in amp 1 underneath the power tubes but it will work once that is replaced. I will double box these and pack them carefully so they arrive safely.
This Vintage Untested Mono Integrated Tube Amplifier was made by Calbest of L. A CA, for High-Fidelity Unlimited. It does not come with tubes, but uses 1x 5y3 GT, 3x ECC83, 2x EL 84. The Model Number is 7615 and the Serial Number is A 151224. There seems to be a link between HFU and the Ampex Corp. In some of their consumer audio products. I have seen at least once, 2 exact stereo units, one branded HFU and one branded Ampex. All the controls and functions are shown in the photos. The case is solid wood (no pressed wood or plywood). There is one thing to note condition wise, the front wood section is cracked on the left side of the control panel. You can see this a Photo. It will not affect any function. I have another Tube amplifier, a Harman Kardon, also listed. Please look carefully at the pictures as they are an important part of the description. I desire to keep my feedback as high as possible.
