[Vintage-Audio] Military Engineering?

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

Hi All,

First, a most blessed, healthy and happy new year to one and all!

I have a fully rebuilt H.H. Scott LK-72B stereo amplifier. It is from circa 
1962-1964. It seems to have a lot of military style engineering in its 
design. The components are far more rugged then typically used in such 
equipment. Even the RMS output is rated about 35% low.

Is this because H.H. Scott had a number of former military design engineers 
employed or?

Their gear certainly is well thought out and built solid!
