On the topic of the Audio Concepts amps - they do look rather nice...
I thought a "Tall Boy" was just a type of wardrobe but you live and learn! :)

It would probably benefit from extra bracing and perhaps some damping material. I may have a lid to fit too.
Obviously though, the first job will be overhauling the TT itself with maybe a rewire.
I reckon the arm could well be good enough for my Denon DL-160.
I just like to hoard late 60's/early 70's Japanese amps & recievers like this :lol:Quote:

I bought a new Luxman R600 receiver back about 1975, that was a lovely bit of kit. As were the Harman Kardon 430 and 730 receivers I also added to the collection. The 730 was actually the best of them.Quote:
