Now, back to the receivers...
Today a good collector friend gave me a Fisher 600-T receiver! And man, it absolutely rocks! It's been well maintained, and it not only shows, but you can hear it in its performance. Very, very pleased with this one.
I also received via US Mail and eBay, a fixer-upper Harman Kardon SR900. It's from 1964, just like my SR600; one of H-K's first all solid state receivers.
Oh, and a craigslist ad yielded a pair of Pioneer CS-77 speakers and a pair of Teac LS-350 speakers, cheap. The Pioneer has bad woofers and midrange speakers; one of the Teacs is working while the other has a bad woofer and bad midrange (by "bad" I mean open voice coils). I knew going in that they were bad, and expected to have to replace some drivers. It will be a fun side project.
I'm going to stop for now, I think I have enough receivers for awhile.
