[Vintage-Audio] Sweet Sound Of Real Audio

Michael, 	

Yes, my preference would be one of the Century series; L-100, L-200 or L-300.
However, I am not opposed to other James B. Lansing systems from the late
seventies backwards in time. I would also consider Electro-Voice EV-12 or EV-15,
even if foam replacement was needed.  	

I need to sit down one day and have my grandson read me the manual on this
AN-180, as it has a lot of switches, knobs, buttons, meters and stuff. Looks
impressive. It sold for $350 in the seventies, which was certainly a lot of cash
then. 	

I think it also provides Dolby for FM broadcasts, which was done for a very
short period of time and then dropped forever.  	

I also have the test tone tape for calibration.

Duane,

You are still searching for a good pair of the James B. Lansing Century L-100,
is that right? my memory isn't what is used to be. 

I used the AN-60 with a Teac 4-track machine and it was fine, but i have to
admit, i eventually settled on a dbx unit. I've never tried the AN-180 though.

Hi All, 	

I am absolutely enjoying myself listening to this H.H. Scott LK-48b and matching
LT-110 FM stereo tuner. I am still on a quest for a pair of vintage speakers to
go with them, however. It is times like these that frustrate me, a sighted
person could search local classified ads and so forth. I know what I want is out
there, but finding them is the issue. Sigh. 	

As soon as I find one suitable cabinet to go along with the Paradigm Monitor 9s
I am currently using, I am going to use the LK-48b to be the center channel
amplifier for the LK-72b stereo amplifier, which is my primary vintage system. I
amy have to knock out a wall around here, as I am running out of audio 'sound'
space! 	

I am now experimenting with the Revox 77B and Teac AN-180 external Dolby/EQ
unit. Has anyone ever used the Teac AN-180? The cheaper model AN-60 is
relatively simple, but this beast is all sorts of wonderous.
