Vintage Sony

[walter duque]

I just went trough some stuff at my mothers and found 2 Sony 2000f Pre-amps, and 2 Sony 3200f Poweramps, I think the amps are rated at 140 watts. They still look like they're in great condition. Is there any interrest anywhere for this equipment from the 70's. They did sound good at the time, used to drive 4 JBL L65 Jubals with them. They are in wooden cabinets. Also a Empire Troubadour in near mint condition (needs belt). I don't think this will sell on AH, may you direct me to website that's into vintage gear.

I've seen one sell for 90 before, but I'm sure it was in really good condition and full tested. Still it would be a great start for any system In my opinion. This is a great vintage amp and worthy of a great vintage setup. Unfortunately I don't have the space, money or time for a vintage setup at this point.

Still this amp has my endorsement.

In the next few days I am gona check out if everything works. The amps at 140 watts those days was pretty good. I am still trying to remember how I ended up with 2 pre-amps.

Hi Walter,

My wife and I want to thank you for this weekend. Especially when you consider that you really didn't know us! Your hospitality was above and beyond anything we expected.

I really enjoyed checking out your system, and hearing the stories of all the equipment you've owned.
You've owned more AV gear in your life time, than I've seen in mine.


Thank You for everything,

Rick
