Let me admit before I begin....I don't have any actual consoles.

What I do have, however, are pulled amps from Motorola consoles. A pair of hs-619 amps to be exact. Bought them from an AK member. Completely rebuilt and refurbished. They're my first tube amps and....wow. I used to think consoles had crappy sound systems in them, the Moto amps have REALLY changed my opinion of them. Excellent, solid amp design. A real joy to listen to.

I can't embed the pictures as I don't remember the filenames, however, they're in a folder on my www...

I must agree. Although I enjoy listening to all of my consoles, the Moto's have the best sound of them all. Especially my big '61.

Almost forgot to post the latest edition. This one needs a bit of love. And yes, at > 68" long it's a beast!

1967 Zenith YT960










At some point, it will hopefully look similar to this:
