Default Bozak and Maranrz

20161226_183641.jpgMine may not be the oldest but may be the biggest. 1969 Bozak Concert Grands with a few mods, Mundorf and Audio Cap capacitors, rewired with silver mil spec wire, custom built biamp filter and is played daily. Looks great and sound great. I also have Marantz 2270, Marantz 2245 receivers and a Marantz 250M amp. All been reworked. The only one of these that is hook up is the 2245 for my patio system.

I have a McIntosh 1700 that I love. I use it with my headphones frequently. LCD 2 sound very pleasant with the 1700.
