CWeber Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 $1100 For sale my 299c with case, this is the last of my downsizing. completely redone. The following description is from the gentleman that did the work I've gone through and completely recapped the set with Hayseed Hamfest electrolytic cap cans, Cornell Dubilier orange drop film caps, & Vishay film caps underneath. Ive added a thermistor before the on/off/volume switch to prevent arcing in said switch. The thermistor will also ensure the amp has an easy slow startup when it's cold and it helps bring modern line voltage down from 125v closer to 117v like it used to be back in the 60s! The full wave selenium rectifier for the bias circuitry has been replaced with a modern day 3A/1000v silicon rectifier bridge and I've added new ac bypass caps, all voltages are spot on! All the controls have been cleaned, it has 4 matched NOS Telefunken 12AX7's, 4 matched very strong near NOS testing Scott(Sylvania) 7591 outputs, 2 NOS 6GH8 phase inverters(low noise 6U8), and a NOS mullard 5AR4 rectifier so this thing is ready for several years to come. only minor problem is with the fuse holder, once set works perfect. $1100 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes things sell on here and sometimes they don't. Try USAM and CL local perhaps? Good luck. I am not in the market however. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWL Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Looks nice. I'm fond of these Scott tube integrateds as I have (3) restored 222c"s. Good luck with your sale. These units sound really, really nice with Klipsch speakers. Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark1101 Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 They image incredibly. Huge 3D soundstage with my Scott LK-72. A ton of bass. Basically the DIY kit of this same unit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
