It's probably been at least 15 years since I obtained these pieces and have never used them. The amp, tuner and preamp came from a friend. I have another Stromberg Carlson Custom 400 amp from a different purchase, but it hasn't been restored. The speaker came from a wealthy computer customer I had back in the 90s.....it was sitting in the corner behind the grand piano.Dang...just the one cabinet.
Today, it has a CD player with the outputs combined to a single input for the preamp.
Sitting in a corner of the front entrance, and pointing into the living room, this system will fill the entire house with big, deep sound.
Excuse the coffee spill. It wasn't me.

Hey, after about 13 years of absence, I am back, for a little while. I still recognize a few names here, how are you all doing?

For years I had a mono system in my garage. It is composed of a Ballantyne amplifier that originally had 6146 output tubes and a 600 ohm output transformer. I converted the amp to KT88 output tubes using a Dynaco output transformer from the Mk.3 amp. The input tube is a 7119 and the driver tubes are 6227 triode connected. This amp originally powered an entire drive in movie theater. The speaker is a great sounding 15" Stromberg Carlson coax. The source is a FiiO digital music player sending FLAC files to the Ballantyne's input transformer where the two channels are combined.

OK, the song came first, but that was followed by a movie*.*Shortly after the film's release, the local ACLU held a fund raiser. Two films were shown, "Behind The Green Door" and "Deep Throat". It was a full house and my date and I had a great time. ;^)

Very nice.
Now why would a wealth computer person have only one speaker?
I have heard mono systems before. They do sound very nice in the right setups.
What's in the cab.? Might be a Jensen co-ax/tri-ax .
A little bit of everybody....

I pulled both pots for cleaning. One did nothing, the other had one spot that it played. Both now operate fine.
