Presenting a Vintage 1960-63 Vintage Lafayette 250A Stereo Tube Integrated Amplifier. Power about 18-20 wpc. Nice set of tubes on board. (4) EL86 Lafayette branded Amperex Holland / Amperex. (2) Lafayette zbranded 7199 USA probably RCA. (2) GE JAN 12AX7WA (military grade). This amplifier was made in a a era when Lafayette was Made in USA. Check out the cool TV feet on this. Unfortunately its missing one outer Bass Control knob. All controls and switches were cleaned wirk and are quiet. We used a variac to power it up over many hours. It passes a clean signal with no hum playing a CD plugges in the AUX input. Here is a problem. The three 12AX7s are not lighting up. So they are not getting the heater voltage. Possibly a cold connection somewhere. Because of this the problen dual concentric Bass / Treble controls are not responding. At first they worked then stopped after awhile. Its wild how this amp is designed in this manner. The amp will still pass a good signal without these tubes functioning. As with most integrated amp designs. IF these tubes were lit you would get no signal. The volume controls work fine. The volume control is dual concentric. So there are 2 volume controls L & R in one knob seperated so you may control the left and right channels separately or both together. This takes the place of a balance control. There is a STEREO / MONO blend control knob. Which also acts as a ON/ Off when turned fully to the left. Turning far left is STEREO. Turning far right is MONO. Everything inbetween that changes the blend from Stereo to Mono. There is a phase switch. There are also two other switches to contro channell switching that allows you to switch and choose the signal to each amp channel A or B signal on the Left and Right Channel seperately. Another interesting design feature. Well thats about it. With a little work yiu will have a real fine well built vintage Stereo integrated amplifier.

I’m letting go of a few things from from my collection, including this Lafayette PA-622 vintage tube amplifier project. These make killer guitar amps! This is #2 of 2 I have listed. The exterior case has some wear, but the amp itself is solid – needs typical updates like new. Servicing, desired mods/conversion – pictured tubes are included – 7189 Mullards!

For sale is a matching vintage Lafayette tube audio pair consisting of an LT-80A FM tuner and LA-55 mono integrated amplifier. Both units have been fully restored, serviced, and tested. They are operating properly and sound excellent. The LT-80A has strong FM sensitivity and receives weaker stations well, even with a very basic antenna. The AFC functions correctly and keeps stations locked in once the tuner has warmed up. As is typical with vintage tube FM equipment, there may be a small amount of warm-up drift with AFC switched off. The LA-55 amplifier plays clearly and strongly with no significant hum or operational issues. Controls, switches, and functions have been checked. Cosmetically, both pieces are in nice overall condition for their age. They present well as a matching set, though they are not museum-perfect and show some normal age-related wear. Please review the photos carefully for exact cosmetic condition. This is a great opportunity to own a restored matching Lafayette tube tuner and amplifier set that is ready to use, rather than an untested project.

Notes: both units power on – no further testing done. Up for sale is a rare, vintage dual-piece audio setup sourced from a local estate. This stack includes two highly collectible pieces of mid-century hi-fi history:H. Scott Type 210-C Dynaural Laboratory Amplifier: A rare mono tube amplifier with a beautiful classic brass face and wood casing. Faceplate shows an authentic heavy patina. Lafayette RK-D600 Stereo Cassette Deck: A premium 3-Head system featuring dual VU meters and DC Servo Control.

I’m letting go of a few things from from my collection, including this Masco MA35 vintage tube amplifier project. These make killer guitar amps! As you can see, the amp has been updated and converted for guitar use, but it is untested by me, though in the same condition as acquired – needs typical updates like new.

Please FULLY read the listing, study the photos and understand and agree with terms before bidd. The photos are part of the description. I mostly sell older, used items – expect them to show wear and have some flaws. I try to give the best descriptions I can. It’s possible that some items may have unobservable or internal problems or damage that I’m not aware of. I do not completely disassemble items for inspection. Make sure the address is up to date and correct. I avoid using UPS. I try to charge as close as possible to actual costs.

Fresh from an estate. Unknown maker of this amp. Has a Lafayete transformer. Still had a Ken Rad 5u4G inside. Unknown as to whether this thing will work. Has a simple on off switch on the front. Built like a tank. Also comes with a heavy industrial metal cage. The item is heavy so UPS ground is the best option.

The unit has been professionally re-capped and is in good working order. If you know what it is and how to use it, you will love it.
