All Pre 1970 Vintage speakers suck! Prove me wrong
I don't know how old you are.  1970's was my "high school" era, I lived thru when you are speaking.  Writing, I will agree with you as All but a few were of today "Audiophile" standards.  ESL speakers as commented above I still highly regarded no... 
Does anyone repair....
Ps.  I once wanted to make those again.  With modern day equipment,  And I have a friend in Colorado that might give your repair a go.  
Does anyone repair....
I don't know of a repair shop closer to you.  But you don't have to send the whole console.  You will have to disassembled it.  Looking at the Owner's Manual, it pictures the Power Amplifier unit as separate from the radio/control unit.  Look at t... 
What is your most fond musical memory.
This would have to be Vladimir Horowitz. Chicago, 198...5, 6? I can't remember the reason I would be in Chicago at that time.  Was not just for his concert.  Chicago Consumer Electronics Show is summer.  Why would I be there in the fall?   
Amplifier and Speaker A/B switcher
Follow up.  Paul McGowen does not know of a solid state speaker selector switching module. I looked into them on ebay.  Including the TC-7220 2-Way Amp Amplifier  Speaker Selector Switch Switcher Splitter Combiner. Several things bothered me,  ... 
Amplifier and Speaker A/B switcher
"swapping the speaker cables by hand" That's the way most of us do it. What about turning the amps around so the speaker connection are facing outward? How often do will you be doing this? If I had to do it again, I.would still go with a box, a... 
After a long, long sleep: ML-335
It might not be a land mine but could be a soil your pants exciting experience.  Like expensive cars, the repairs are expensive too. I would definitely do an easy up on it.  Spend the money and send it to ML service center.  Or a reputable tech o... 
Amplifier and Speaker A/B switcher
Depending on the concerning ear, everything you put into the signal path will degrade the sound. Years ago, I needed to do what you want.   But I needed to be able to switch 4 turntables, 6 amps/receivers, 2 aux and 12 pairs of speakers. Plus, sp... 
ELEMENTS THAT AUDIOPHILE SPEAKERS REQUIRE
LOL!!! How they Look is high on my list.  If she looks pretty, I will overlook her misgivings.  
Being alone with your music
I’m single and live in near recluse. Very first music listening as this New Transistor radio with a little 9V battery. At night in bed under the covers. Sony reel to reel model 111. recordings made from that a.m, radio. Upgraded to a Wollensak. A... 
Why on earth?
I commented on a few of those videos.  "You Spent All That Money and they still sound like television speakers."  
Am I wasting money on the theory of Bi-amping?
Some of us kind of do it already with an addition of a sub-woofer. We also have enjoyed the time, expense and fun this can be to get it right. As far as waste of time, you will never know yourself if this is BS or not. Clarification. 1, You sta... 
How serious are you?
Serious Obsession? I just watched Crazy CAR WIZARD Stories: Six cars that truly Ruined My Customer's lives!  One of them was, using money set aside for his wife's cancer treatments to fund his car repairs.  I'm going to set this as 10.  This will... 
As A Youngster, What Unit Puqued Your Interest In All This?
Music and electronics when I was around 8 years old.  1962ish. My dad found out that we could help Salvation Army Thrift take apart big donated furniture stereo tv consoles for $5.00.  Speakers, turntables, AM FM radios, amplifiers.  I experimente... 
Am I broken? Am I stuck? Do I have to return my audiophile card now?
You don’t have to turn in your audiophile card. In fact, you will be issued an Audiophile Platinum card. Go for it! You like the sound of them. You have the space for them. You obviously have the money to get them without having your house go in...
