Vintage Marantz 2275 // Solid-state Receiver / Restored

Often regarded as one of the best Marantz receivers, many collectors consider the 2275 a work of art. This piece is nearly 50 years old, yet still looks and sounds stunning. There are a few nicks around the cabinet and face, but this piece has been fully restored electronically. Well known for its headroom and detail, the 2275's warm sound is easily mistaken for a vacuum tube sound. This is an extremely well-built receiver which drives low impedance loads with ease, and is, without question, one of the most recognizable members of the Marantz hall of fame.

Vintage Sansui AU 20000 // Integrated Amplifier / Professional Series

170 watts of something to behold. The AU-20000 was the biggest integrated amp that Sansui ever made, and is a true work of art from a sonic and industrial design perspective. From a collector's perspective, this is one Sansui's three kings. From our perspective, the AU20K is the most stunning Sansui piece all around. The cabinet on this piece has a couple of scuff marks, but you won't notice them at a listening distance. It's been fully serviced, and sounds gorgeous. Peak Sansui.

Vintage Altec Model Nineteen // Loudspeakers / Custom Restoration

The Altec Model Nineteen like you’ve never seen before. Refinished, Recapped, Reimagined. No stone was left unturned, and we used the best of the best. The crossovers were redesigned using Mundorf caps, terminals refitted with Cardas binding posts, and the cabinets rewired with 18ga silver over oxygen-free copper throughout. Easily the best sounding Nineteen we’ve done. Stop by the showroom and hear them for yourself.

Vintage Pioneer SX-950 // Solid-State Receiver / Restored

Most would agree that 1978 was peak Pioneer, but even the naysayers would have to admit that the SX line is absolutely iconic. From the crystal-clear readout framed by walnut and machined aluminum, down to the mirrored bezel on each k**b, the attention to detail is palpable. Those details run deep, making the SX-950 one of the most sought after vintage receivers. This example has earned a bit of character after nearly 50 years, but we've serviced it from top to bottom, and this piece is in top working order. Ready. To. Rock.

It's totally a coincidence.

Vintage Quad 303 // Solid-State Amplifier / With Quad 33 Preamp

Two of the most iconic pieces from arguably the most design-forward vintage audio brand (we'll get to you in a moment, Mr. Rams). Reviewers at the time were unfairly harsh, but the consensus among collectors is that Quad caught lightning in a bottle. Beyond stunning, they are incredibly well-built, with repairability in mind. That brings us to performance, and here again, Quad shines. The 303 and 33 go together like peanut butter and chocolate, and the sound is just as good. This set shows a bit of character here and there, which is typical of their age. We have fully serviced both pieces, and they're in excellent condition overall.

Vintage ADS L810 // Speakers / Restored / Reclothed / w/Stands

Well regarded as incredibly musical, the L810 was one of the first designs under the A/D/S brand, built with Braun components. We've refinished the cabinet, added Cardas copper binding posts, refoamed the drivers, and reclothed the grills in a stunning silver with black and blue thread. These are some of our favorites in the listening room right now.

🔴 Congrats to Lloyd! !

One of the most classic McIntosh preamps, the C24, is also one of the most beautiful sounding. This piece was one of the first off the line in 1964, and could well be regarded as a survivor. We've recapped the signal path, and the glass is immaculate. Ready for another 60 years

One of the most noteworthy turntables in hi-fi history, now one of a kind. The Metzner Starlight is a true transcription table, with a Gray 202 tonearm, direct drive, and variable speed control from 16 to 83 RPM. The Starlight was designed by Robert Metzner, who also founded Roberts Electronics, and is best known for bringing Akai to the United States.

This example has been mechanically restored, and cosmetically upgraded with a beautiful walnut plinth.

New / Mission 770 // Speakers / Walnut / With Stands

These will knock your socks off. The new Mission 770 may look modest, but these are beasts. They look almost identical to the '77 original, but uses completely redesigned drivers, and modern caps in the crossover. Even at 88dB, they sound incredible on a tube amp tube amp (the Fezz Titania). It's usually the first system we fire up in the morning, and the last to be shut off.

Classic, meet Stunning. This absolutely gorgeous 225 has been fully electronically restored. If you look very closely, you may find some tiny character marks, but you'll really have to look.

Vintage Quad II // Tube Amplifier / Monoblocks

Often regarded as the first great amplifier, Peter Walker’s original, the Quad II, is a fairly unusual find in the United States. This classic '50s tube amp from across the pond cemented Quad's reputation as a company of influence and integrity. These examples have some character, and one side has a bit of a dent near the terminals, but electronically, they're square in spec and fully tested.

Vintage Altec Lansing 878A Santiago // Speakers / Custom Restoration

We may have outdone ourselves with this build. The only thing we didn't re-envision were the cabinet dimensions and driver load-out. Simply spectacular, and they sound even better than they look.

New Blumenhofer Acoustics Tempesta 20 Mk2 // Speakers / Horn Loaded

Founded in '77, and nestled in nature park near Munich, Blumenhofer Acoustics is synonymous with high end. The Tempesta 20 MkII is one of the most rousing loudspeakers we've auditioned, with crisp detail in the upper registers, and full-bodied bottom end. Geared toward an advanced listener, the Tempesta is efficient enough to be driven by tube alone, yet easily bi-ampable. Blumenhofer's crossover includes switchable impedance linearization, which allows the owner to adjust the brightness to taste, and the Tempesta handles the double-duty of cinema with ease. In a sea of similarities, the Tempesta stands out as a remarkable transducer with tunable voicing and immense capability. Available in a wide range of unique veneers.

The adjustability of this design is on another plane, as the time-alignment can be perfectly tuned to the listening position, and the crossover provides switchable impedance linearization, which can dramatically tune the brightness to your precise tastes. We simply can't stop engaging – with aesthetics rivaling musicality, the Blumenhofer Genuin is an immersive sensory feast.

Vintage Klipsch Heresy // Speakers / Custom Restoration

The Klipsch Heresy is a legend. For this pair from '79, we took an understated, classic approach. We rebuilt the crossover, completely refinished the cabinets, and countersunk magnets in the baffle board to accept our custom made grilles, wrapped in a beautiful cream linen. We offset the badges for a truly "if you know, you know" presentation. While a casual observer might notice a nice pair of speakers, collectors will know this is a very special pair.

Vintage Phase Tech PC800HO // Speakers / Original Box

Ever heard of Phase Tech? The company was founded by one of the unsung heroes of vintage HiFi, Bill Hecht. He invented the flat-piston driver, as well as the soft-dome tweeter – nearly every soft dome tweeter references his patent. Mr. Hecht's original company, United Speaker Systems, supplied many OEM manufacturers in the late '60s, like McIntosh and The Fisher. In fact, McIntosh contracted Hecht to design the ML-1C. One of his later designs, the PC800, is a loudspeaker known for excellent horizontal dispersion, and relatively uniform room response. This is literally a piece of HiFi history.
