It has TAD's EL34 in them now, it was serviced a while ago.
No idea on the quality of brand of the caps (EPCOM)?

Thank you for a fast reply.

Any comment on the EPCOS caps? Descent brand?

Hi, all,

I need to know what the experts have to say about this one.

I actually, but it says local pickup only. And getting the cabs to Belgium might be too much.
Also, there is the wife...
I might not survive it.

Hi, all,

I don't know for sure, am I seeing this right?
Check out the last photo of the speakers...

Yeah, I edited that weblink, for the specific "re-cone" question, thank you for answering that one, Dr. Hi-Tone.
Anyways, I've added more pics for those who want.

I thank you for your kind reply!

Hi,

Can the experts chime in on this one, if possible please?

Here's a link to that SE-4122 cab. I think it's from 1971.
No date stamps anywhere to be found, but I've read a thread on this forum somewhere regarding a similar cab, close to the same S/N.

I'm guessing this Hiwatt has been highly "cannibalised", or used for spare parts by this person.

Also, I've added more pictures, check out the same link, if you will.

I found this stamp on the chassis inside, it led me tot this website: http://www.rolandwaespi.ch/ I think he's the one responsible for the 'tampering' inside. Germany isn't that far from where I live, so who's up for a road trip? Honestly, the fact that the inside has seen some mods on this one chan...

Hi, all, A while back I purchased this Hiwatt DR-103 from 1972, from this Italian guy. According to him, it's 'absolutely all original', although I doubt it. It's been serviced by a qualified technician as well. Pictures can be found here: http://www.studioncp.com/HIWATT%20DR-103-1972.htm I noticed ...
