1979 DR-103

Post by Casey78 »

This DR-103 is just a short drive from me. I've been wanting another 100. Thoughts? Is it worth it?

Looks nice... but I like 2 holers :mrgreen:

Interesting cap job though... anyone more technical want to tell me what the flathead screw tops on the capacitors are?

$1600 is at the high end of what the amp is worth.
but it should be a good player. I would prefer to play through it and check it out before buying it.

The caps are the right values, but have the wrong connectors. 5 + years ago it was nearly impossible to find the exactly correct capacitors.

Thank you Dr. Hiwatt, I knew if anyone would know it would be you.

I was actually thinking the same thing about the price from hanging out here. I decided against it. Perhaps I'll hold out until I can find one of them 4 holers everyone talks about. :mrgreen:
