Old Timers Advice Required


I felt sentimental today when I saw an ad for an original Apt Holman pre amp and amp. When I was in high school, I couldn't afford this gear and heard it demoed with Dalhquist DQ-10s and a Thorens turtable with an Infinity Black Widow tonerarm and a Denon MC cartridge. Sounded magical to me in 1978 but I am wondering if it would just sound like old junk today. Also, don't know the condition but any idea what these amps might be worth? Thank you very much.

CHRISTOPHER, I CANNOT COMMENT ON THE AMP,BUT I STILL HAVE MY DAHLQUIST DQ'S FROM 1978 AND KEEP GOING BACK TO THEM. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL OTHER NEW "HIGHLY RECOMMENDED SPEAKERS" BUT HAVE SOLD THEM ALL BECAUSE NONE HAD THE MIDRANGE MAGIC LIKE THE DQ10'S.BACK THEN I HAD A THORENS WITH A GRACE 707 TONEARM AND LO OUTPUT SLEEPING BEAUTY MC CARTRIDGE BY G.A.S.WHAT I AM TRYING TO SAY IS ALOT OF THE OLDER STUFF IS STILL REALLY GOOD BY TODAYS STANDARDS AND SOME OF IT IS BETTER.
