Teac AS-200 Integrated Amplifier

Teac AS-200 Integrated Amplifier

Teac AS-200 Integrated Amplifier  (1968)

Teac, more often known for their reel to reel tape machines, also made this Teac AS-200 Integrated Amplifier in the late 1960's.  The machine is wrapped in a wood veneered case, and the wood veneer carries through to the flip down front  panel, and even in the square buttons.  Yes, there is real wood veneer (not vinyl!) inlaid in those small square buttons.

Some other interesting features are 2 Phono and Aux inputs, selected between '1' and '2' via small knobs under the flop down panel.  Build quality is very high, with a tremendous attention to detail which carries through to the internals.  Inside there is an amplifier section which is capable of 40 watts per channel, via two modular amplifier boards.

The rest of this series also contained an AF-200 electronic crossover, an the AE-200 power amplifier.

Scott 299 “Stereomaster” Integrated Tube Amplifier

25 Feb

Scott 299 Integrated Tube Amplifier (1958)

Stereo 40-watt Integrated Amplifier 17-wpc (RMS)

Scott's first "Stereomaster" Integrated Amp.  The 299 featured "Christmas Tree" tri-function neon indicators, unique to 299-series.  The 299 was selected for display at world expositions like the Moscow fair.

The proven 40 watt stereo amplifier will drive even the most inefficient speaker systems because its special subsonic filter directs all power into the audible music range and its output stage is of extremely conservative design. This fine amplifier gives you a unique combination of exclusive H. H. Scott features, advanced engineering and handsome apperance. If you are planning a truly fine music system the H. H. Scott model 299 complete amplifier is the ideal choice.

Fisher X-1000 Integrated Tube Amplifier

Fisher X-1000 Integrated Tube Amplifier (1961, $329.50 USD MSRP)

The Fisher X-1000 is the highest- powered and most elaborate in a new line of Fisher integrated stereo control amplifiers. It provides a multitude of operating features and controls (for stereo and mono) as well as two power output channels of 55 watts each, with an optional "centre channel" output without the need for an additional power amplifier. The unit is very well built and, despite its many facilities and high power, is relatively compact and handsomely designed. In tests conducted at United States Testing Company, Inc., it met its specifications in all important respects and, in fact, proved to be an outstanding performer in its class.

Dimensions are 16 15/16 in. wide by 5 13/16 in. high by 13¾ in. deep (exclusive of knobs). Weight is 44 pounds.At full rated power output (55 watts per channel), the frequency response of the amplifier was measured as flat within 2 db from 24 cps to 20 kc.

Pioneer SA-6500 II Integrated Amplfier and TX-6500 II Tuner

Pioneer SX-6500 integrated amplfier and TX-6500 tuner

Pioneer SA-6500 Integrated Amplifier and TX-6500 tuner (1977-1978)

The SA-6500 was one of Pioneer's mid-range integrated amps in the mid-1970s. The SA-6500 was rated at 25 watts per channel.  Interestingly, this amp had the same low intermodulation distortion and total harmonic distortion specs as the top-of-the-line SPEC-2 amplifier, 0.1 %. So, while the buyer of this amp couldn't afford a SPEC-2, he could boast it had the same specs!

The TX-6500 II tuner was also introduced in 1977 and was a step up from the TX-5500 II in terms of features and performance. It featured better stereo separation and signal to noise ratio, and the extra circuitry components resulted in a weight of 12.50 pounds. It had a list price of $200.00. This tuner was a good seller for Pioneer and it was offered again for 1978.
