Eico HF-87 stereo amplifier that will require 4x EL34, 2x 6SN7GT and one 12AX7 tubes. No tubes or cage are included. This unit is stamped by Eico on the underside of the chassis so it leads one to believe this unit was factory built. I see capacitors and resistors were replaced sometime in the past and a surge protector was added. I used my spare tubes to test and it sounds great, no hum. This weighs 31 lbs.

This Scott 99-C is in fair cosmetic condition. The front panel has some slightly bent corners and is a little dirty, but should clean up nicely. The knobs appear to be original but are certainly worn. One of the transformer casings has paint flaked off and some surface rust in that area. The 6L6GC tubes are from Eastern Europe or China (not sure which), but the the rest are vintage American tubes. Someone has installed some newer capacitors under the chassis, but I don’t know who did that work or when it was done. The amp seems to be playing well and sounds good!
