Scott and Fisher made great tube equipment. The RCAs and binding posts aren't very good though by today's standards. Also the caps in the power supply possibly will need to be replaced. The old Stereo 70 is a great amp and it is even better after being modified with better parts. The Jolida gear is very good and little needs to be done in terms of having an up-to-date amplifier. I own a Consonance integrated tube amplifier myself and love it. Jolida and Consonance are both made in China and that is the reason they are not all that expensive.
Scott/Dynaco TUbe Amps......
Looking to get into tube sound on the cheap...would the Scott 299c be a good start...also...how much would cleaning and getting new tubes run me?....debating about ST-70 modified by Van ALstine...any thoughts...or new Jolida...cheers
