Hello Tony. Welcome to AOS.

Tell us what music you listen to and about the system you use.

DIY projects are popular here. If you have anything on the go, why not start a thread in the Drawing Board section and show us what you're doing?


Enjoy the forum,
Geoff.

Hello again to all!! Thanks for all of the warm welcomes!

I know this sounds ridiculous... but my current system consists of a Heathkit AA-32 pre/power amp, Heathkit AJ-44 tuner, a Marantz 5220 and a Technics SL1500 turntable. We spin a lot of vinyl in the lounge area of our shop on this system. It is a low wattage setup but the AA-32 sounds incredible on the home made speakers that we use. I'm looking to set up another bigger system for movie watching and such. I tend to be a tube nerd and want to start the other system with a McIntosh tube preamp, maybe a C-20...

Right now I have two major projects - a Krell KSA200 and a McIntosh MC2300. The McIntosh just needs a couple of driver board components replaced... the Krell needs to be biased. Does anyone know any info on the bias procedure?

Welcome to AoS Tony,

Heathkit - now there's a name from the past. What sort of music do you like to listen to through your system?

Enjoy the Forum

Listening to lots of blues and classic rock from the 60s up through the 80s...

Btw... where do I post questions about something like the Krell KSA200 Bias proceedure?

If the amp predates 1990, post in 'Past Masters' , otherwise post in 'Blank Canvas'.
