  1. Additional information on the Scott amp: Purchased in 2019 off Craigslist. It was completely rebuilt by Frank Mufich prior to my purchase. I knew Frank and confirmed that before i bought it. The following work was performed: replace all electrolytic capacitors rebuild the preamp filament bias supply left in a mess from previous repair replace selenium bridge rectifier with Silicon bridge replace voltage dropping resistors on the electrolytic capacitor upgrade replace many out of tolerance stressed over supply voltage dropping resistors replace plate coupling capacitors for tone section and line stage intall ICL (inrush current limiter) soft start to make it last longer install 10 ohm resistors into output tube cathodes for transformer protection replace output tubes with matched quad Electro Harmonix 7591A replace the phono stage coupling capacitors re-bias output stage clean and re-tension rear connector jacks, clean speaker terminals clean and lubricate controls and switches test distortion, frequency response, channel balance and power output. I later took it to Frank to repair a problem with the phono stage. I have a wood case for the amp that is included in the sale but the current tubes are too tall for the case.
  2. I have a pair of 1982 Cornwalls for sale for $1,200. I am located in Dallas. I also have a Scott 299C amp for $500 and a pair of Polk 7s for $250.
  3. Not sure how to change heading. The Khorns have been sold.
  4. I purchased these K-Horns on this site from Dave Mallette in August 2020, My listening room was being redone so I planned to make some improvements and have them ready when construction was finished. In the interim I was able to acquire a pair of Cornwalls in a trade. I have decided to keep the Cornwalls and have lost enthusiasm for the K-Horn project. I never auditioned the speakers but my understanding is they were in working order when I acquired them. Price: $1,000 (what I paid); $1,100 with Crites speaker cloth (cost $190).
  5. Thanks, 001. I was able to edit the title.
  6. I don’t know how to edit the heading. The speakers have been sold.
  7. Selling these since I bought some Cornwalls. I’m asking what I paid a few years ago: $500. Pickup in Dallas 75230.
  8. I have an SX1250 and it’s awesome. That’s a good price if it is mint and doesn’t need work.
  9. Really nice! If I was closer I’d take them home. GLWS
