Vintage Asylum

Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

For more than a decade my AR3a speakers were driven by a Marantz Model 18 receiver rated IIRC at 40 watts per channel. The Model 18 is a heavy monster so maybe it can deliver the needed current. In any case, that combination sounded fine. I still have the AR turntable with its Shure V-15 II cartridge, the Model 18, and the AR3a speakers. I haven't fired them up in several decades. I hope to find a place to set them up again, but all the units probably should be refurbished before I do that.
