Michael.......Great looking vintage system, perfect for the garage. You may want to just forget fixing the lamps if you're happy with it the way it is. The JBL's look good, too. Nice setup.

Thanks, Dan!
Since some of the controls are a bit scratchy I will have the unit serviced locally. I figure that will be a good time to replace the bulbs as well since the case is off. I'm seriously considering an LED upgrade.

Excellent receivers and should 'play well' with the Minimus 7s. Still discrete outputs on the CR-620 (the later 640 went to powerpac outputs, which are impossible to find today). Used a CR-820 for many years and a good friend uses to this day. My 'bench system' is a CR-800 as it has pre-outs, which are handy. Member dgwojo on the AK forum sells long-life bulbs for a very reasonable price when you replace same (need a soldering iron). A can of Deoxit Pro Gold should take care of the scratchy controls. Case is simple to remove.

I ended up pairing the CR-620 with a pair of JBL 2500 bookshelf speakers and it is a good combo. Sounds really rich and warm. The Minimus 7's will probably end up out on the patio.

I have a pair of brown Minimus 7's at my office for a rig. Those are awesome speakers for a PC/nearfield. It's amazing that Radio Shack had decent speakers...ever.
