Title: Rare vintage audio
Post by: Falcon on November 28, 2009, 12:36:18 AM: Anyone got any rare vintage components?
I have a Philips DFA-1000 copper chassis, built in D/A converters, 125 w.p.c. first 25 in class A. Rare and beautiful. I will take some pics and post later.
I love the rare stuff, if anyone has some please share.

Mike

I also have a pair of Allison one speakers.

Last, I have a cute little pair of Polk Mini Monitors.
