Very nice collection of mint condition vintage amps. Just out of curiosity, may I inquire from where you get these?

I'm getting it from different people, I just happen to be lucky to source very nice condition from those sources.

Maybe because I'm OC when it comes to gear buying, I really prefer very good condition gears!

Congratz sir for a very nice collection... especially the Sansui's

Sorry, OC?

BTW, there's nothing mediocre about your set-up. It looks all good to me.

I'm meticulous to gear condition before I get it.

Your gears are really to die for.

Thanks.

Yes bro, actually my bookshelf speakers hirap because of the high current capability of the amp.

I am now sourcing high current speakers, sana may mahanap. He he

My ALCHEMIST FORSETI amplifier

Very Beautiful Amp Inside & Out!...

I'm pretty sure it sounds fantastic as it looks!

If by chance I own an audio gear with very gorgeous innards like this one, I would replace the top cover with clear acrylic so I can keep drooling on it...

Yes, it's really a complete package-esthetics, internal design & SUPERB sound quality!

That's actually part of my plan, to have an acrylic cover. When Eric Lim used to showcase this at their Audio Den store before Acoustic Dimension at Powerplant with that acrylic cover.

Thanks
