HISTORY OF THE SYSTEM
This system was acquired in 1962 and maintained by a single original owner, my father, Clarence C. Close, M.D., in a specially designed temperature controlled hi-fi room. Dad was no normal audiophile. He was also an army trained electronics engineer and recording producer. He recorded classical artists all over the midwest, including Easley Blackwood, Frank Miller, and Van Cliburn winner Ralph Votapek. His recordings are now archived at the University of Chicago, the Chicago Symphony, and the University of Maryland. In short, he knew his stuff. In fact, SHURE asked Dad to test their new record cartridge prototypes on his system.
These amplifiers have been expertly maintained in a temperature controlled environment.
We will deliver within reasonable distance from Chicago, otherwise plus shipping cost.
