Old stuff: Inca Tech

[ABCaudio]

Bottom left: Magnum pre-amp, upgraded.
Top left: Claymore issue 6
Right: 2 x Claymore FMT tuners

The Claymore and the bottom tuner came as a pair, although the amp needs a little attention. They were caked in filth, and took a dammed good clean... They have cleaned up lovely though! Like new, preserved under a protective layer of grime. With a bit of Colin's magic they should absolutely sing. The only imperfection not age related is some slight damage to the LCD, which has bled a little from the top.

The older tuner (top) is practically NOS, it just lacked original packaging.

I don't know why I keep picking this stuff up, I just like the history I suppose! The new stuff Colin has designed is amazing, but it's great to know where it came from. I wonder if I will end up with TOCA 50W monos one day? That'll be a hard sell to my long suffering wife!!

It's well worth pointing out that as well designing and building the new EWA amps and cables, Colin (@CJ14 ) is servicing and upgrading his old kit from Magnum and Inca Tech. Most of this kit is as old as I am, and after some attention it will be good for about forty years.

I've repaired a few Claymores over the years... always found them a good sounding integrated.

The gold Claymore with the optional Projekt Akustic feet always looked more like a posh 'Bouncing Betty', to me!

Had a friend that always called them Stinka-tech. Never knew why other than it was just silly, as I thought they sounded really good, and I have only heard two, not sure exactly how many ever made it over across the pond, and it seems at least one of them was on a step up transformer if I recall correctly. Those certainly are cool, nice to see them in such nice shape after the clean up, well done!

And here are several of the FMT, not too many of these around:
