Dutchman Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Found this in the garbage. I initially thought I’d strip it for parts. But a friend of mine told me they are incredible stereo amps. So I rebuilt it. I don’t have a clue what I’m going to do with it as I have a great sound system, but I enjoyed bringing it back to life!! I’ve only played CD’s thru it, sounds incredible with great speakers!! It’s a Dynaco ST-70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toadroller Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 In the garbage?!?!? Awesome! I picked up a tabletop tube radio at a yard sale last week. $5. I figure I can scavenge for parts or convert to stealth low wattage guitar amp. Haven't taken the back off it yet to give it a look over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe G Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 That's a good looking Dynaco 70 and a super score! Here's a pic of a stainless chassis Dynaco 70 that I bought off of the bay last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrjamiam Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Super nice find and work, but what is this "finishing a project" that you speak of? As far as I know, that can't be done. 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought those look like transformers and dug it out of the pile. Thinking amp build project with old iron! I’m glad my buddy talked me into restoring it instead!!

I figured it wouldn’t be worth the parts I put in it since it’s from the late 50’s. I like projects/fixing old tube stuff. I’m still working on the old leslie speaker I posted a while back. Trying to make it 100% variable speed vs 2 speed to work with tempo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
