Scott receiver ++++ vintage electronics

I remember a Rolling Stone article about a year ago which recommended vintage electronics which were cheap. They mentioned a Scott receiver, circa late 60's or 70's, which was a real gem. They mentioned you could buy it on ebay for like $150. Can anyone give me more info, especially a model number? Also some cheap speakers, I think the article mentioned epos. Any model numbers? Thank you, this board is great......

Here are a few online sources for vintage amps. You can get good background there. Scott, Dyna, Eico, Citations... all excellent old tube circuits. There are many others. You need to understand a few things about tubes and make sure there is a schematic available which usually is not a problem.

This is one short section of an outline of online stuff I have.

IX. Vintage

* One Electron Site, Collection of old articles from Radio News (Sylvan Harris, @1926), Electronics Magazine, and others. http://www.one-electron.com/Misc_Docs.html#end
* Radio Era Archives: http://www.radioera.com/. Billed as the largest site for vintage radio.
* FireBottles Audio: Great collection of info on Dynas, EICO. Fisher etc. http://intra.engr.uark.edu/~lar/fireamps.html
* Jim Mc Shane’s Citation page: http://pages.prodigy.net/jimmcshane/
* Unofficial Dynaco Home Page: http://home.indy.net/~gregdunn/dynaco/index.html
* H.H. Scott Hi-Fi Stereo Archive: http://hhscott.com
* The National Valve Museum, http://www.valve-museum.org/. The “articles”, “exhibits” and equivalents” sections are all great.

Cheers
I remain,
