Classe Seventy amp found in alley


Sitting in my downtown alley was this Classe Seventy amp. Other than a little bit dirty and having some sort of felt glued all over the top, its condition is good. And after hooking my Dynaco preamp up to it with some average speakers, it works fine. I'm still trying to figure out if I stumbled onto an abandoned, stolen item or maybe it was found in a move-out pile and the scrounger couldn't sell or trade it so he dumped it where I found it. It's kind of heavy. So did I find something desirable?

It's all kinda romantic and patriotic, but I've never seen ANY report on stolen electronic equipment with exact model and especially serial number. So if anyone ever reported stolen amp or any other audio/video components with serial number, please insite me and lemme know.
Csmgolf, I definitely would give exact make and model, but not sure if I would remember the serial number at all. Make and model? There are thousands if not hundreds of thousands. Go figure.
Some of the serious issues aren't recognizable as well. Common item such as Classe 70, could have been purchased from major electronics retailer that after certain period of time would not keep this receipt in the database. Besides, the database of let's say BestBuy only lasts for couple of months to take care of qualified returns and than gets recycled. Some of the receipts are recoverable within next year, but not any longer.
To print 2...3 years old receipt isn't a biggie. Not traceable, but yet serious issue.
