I've always wanted a 630TS. I have an Air King A1000 and a Dewald BT100 which are both based off the 8TS30 because the both sets I have use perminant magnet ion traps.

I've always said, if I can't have a super sweet 621TS, then I want a 630TS. Out of all the 630TS and 8TS30 clones, I've always thopught the original RCA 630TS looked the best. I personally think it's a beautiful set.

I have begun restoring this Air King A1000. I've fully recapped it, electrolytics, paper/wax, and micamold. I've gotten the HV section working once again but adding new tubes, recapping, and replacing the drifted resistors. Though, while recapping, I broke the 1st video IF amp tube socket. I replaced it with a new one, I turned it on and got smoke, as well as damaging the tube. I obviously wired it wrong, but I've been burned out with this damn set already. It's been about two months since I last worked on it. I guess I lost my motivation because it's not an authentic RCA. I may sell the Air King and the Dewald if I win this auction.
