Even at $4,000, this tube amplifier is a remarkable value
By jhewes , July 21, in Talkin' Tubes. The wires that come out from the back of the amp connect to the terminal strip screw that corresponds to the impedance of the speakers, correct?
Unit has Been Cleaned and Tested. It is in Great Working Condition. All Controls Cleaned No scratchy Noise. Excellent Overall Condition. Photos show a pretty clean chassis, transformers look free of corrosion. It has the brown plastic knobs that show some corrosion on the ends.
There was not a photo of the underside, and only a partial of the rear panel. There is no case a friend has graciously offered to make one for me. Apparently there are two versions of the C, one with 28 watts per channel, another with Not sure which one this is.
Delivery is expected next week. I am looking forward to connecting my Heresy speakers. Assuming it has old capacitors and resistors, etc. I have an LK kit version of the C that did exactly that after running great for about 20 minutes I bought it on eBay and it was in great condition and operating, but old the old components failed quickly.
Another thing, it really should be powered up slowly using a variac, starting at a low voltage and gradually over several hours brought to full voltage. Even if it has been serviced recently, if has not been powered up for a few months, the variac start up is a good idea. I would recommend NOSvalves Craig to take a look at it. He is the master when it comes to Scott integrated amps.
I have three Scott integrated amps including the LK that I foolishly damaged by being too eager to try out and a Scott preamp that Craig has serviced. He does what is needed. Nothing more, nothing less. There are very few people in the tube amp industry with Ken Leonard's knowledge and expertise except for me of course, but I'm trying to be retired.
I strongly suggest that you seek his help if the amp needs restoration. He tried to become an active participant on here, but was not given much of a welcome by some folks and decided to take his contributions elsewhere. I can't blame him. When you receive it, if you post a clear picture of the underside of the chassis, or PM it to me, I'll be glad to look at it to see if any work has been done. By the way, where are you located?
I'm sure that there are a number competent service techs that can bring a vintage Scott amp to good working condition. You have a very nice amp, so please get it looked at. Thanks a bunch, folks, good advice all. I have seen Craig's page but not Ken Leonard's. They both look like excellent resources. I am seeking a local authority first to have the unit checked out.
Baring that I will look at those suggested. Tube Fanatic, I will send you a photo when the unit arrives nex week. I am located in Monmouth County, central New Jersey. I can't believe you're in NJ! Regarding local service, if there's a ham radio club it's likely that they have some old timers who are extremely well versed in tube electronics many are probably audiophiles as well.
Another person who may be able to help you, and who is right in your area, is Sal Brisindi SalB aol. I know that he was very involved in amp restoration at one time, but now may be limiting his work to old radios. I'd drop him a note. Either way, I'll help you out if I can.
When you send the picture, we can exchange direct emails to make things easier. One thing is certain- once you get a taste of tubes with your Heresys, you will never want to return to SS!

Reply to this topic Start new topic. Recommended Posts. Posted July 21, Hello all, I have just purchased a Scott C tube amp to go with my heresy speakers. I have done some searching but need some help making the speaker connections. To which screws do I connect the two wires on each speaker cable? High and 0? Any assistance appreciated.

Stereomaster 299-D
There are now two system of high fidelity, monophonic monaural and stereophonic. Monophonic is a system that starts from one microphone and is fed through a single high fidelity set. Stereophonic is a double system. Two separate microphones are placed at different sides of the orchestra and two different systems are used to keep the two signals or channels separated. Two separate speakers are used, placed on different sides of you room.

HH Scott 299C Speaker Recommendations
This is special -- VPI may be best known as New Jersey's leading turntable manufacturer, but it now has an integrated tube amplifier, the D. Inspired by the legendary H. Scott amplifier that was made from to , the VPI D is a rethink of the original design. Scott D a few years ago and loved the sound so much he just had to bring the design back to life. Leung uses " point-to-point wiring " instead of printed circuit boards because he thinks the amp sounds better when made that way. I hope so -- point-to-point wiring is all done by hand, and Leung builds the D amps in the same VPI factory where the turntables are made, in Cliffwood, New Jersey the chassis' metal parts are made in China.

So auch hier. We have been gratefully aware of him since He is the man who took the grit out of Grieg and the scratch out of Scriabin by inventing the Dynaural Noise Suppressor. If you use an H. He does not see why an amplifier or a tone arm should be ugly any more than a 'cello is. To this we owe a revolution since it was Scott who in gave us the Model 99 amplifier which did not need to be hidden. Everyone now follows this precedent, but it was Scott who established it, and the Scott musical gear still looks best of any.

They're very affordable and incredibly simple to pair with nearly any tube amp. In fact it's their one of the most successful model with definitely one of the highest performance per budget. Also look into JBL studio monitors as they define music so great especially with tube amps. LOG IN. Hi all, I'm looking at buying a restored Scott B amp.
Vintage Scott 299d Tube Integrated Amplifier
Welcome to Audiophilia. We publish honest and accurate reviews of high end audio equipment and music. Scott D integrated vacuum tube stereo amp Enthusiastic as ever, Leung mentioned to me recently by phone that he had acquired several modified vintage Scott models a while ago, and they sounded so nice to him and VPI that they decided to proceed with their own high-end modern version. The project took 2 years to completion and only were made.

The LK was the kit version of the Scott C and uses tubes for 36 watts a channel. The amp has been re-capped, and is fully serviced. While it is IMO pretty nice to look at, it isn't perfect, the amp has wear near the volume dial which it seems most of the chocolate finish models exhibit , and scratches on the trim of the faceplate.
did not regret it!
This wonderful idea just engraved
It is rather valuable phrase
