Just had a great wash in with our Canadian Brothers

I completely missed this thread! I guess I was too busy with my new toys from Jon and Greg!! The very nice Panasonic blender is from Greg! Something I wanted for a while!!

 

I bought some Advent speakers similar to those Jon has. They're a bit newer but that's OK, they're "period correct" to match with the receiver and turntable which happen to be my age, 1977 models! The large ones sound very nice. 

 

I just had to replace a few lights and caps in the receiver.  The lights aren't correct (12 volts too dim) but I ordered a new set of 200 MA 8 volts as I could only 250 MA 8 volts locally and these are apparently too hot (I saw one of Jon's posts about that on Audiokarma!).

That is a sweet

set up Phil! So glad the 2265B was an easy fix its  a nice unit! Cant wait to hear it all in person, Phil on my 2325 switched to the Led bullet lamps, did you look into those? Nice lamp no heat to warp components.

I have looked at leds, I almost ordered a set, probably will eventually! How many leds are in each of yours? 2, 3 or 6?

Phil if I remember

correctly, theres 5 in my 2275 and 6 in the 2325.

 

I had to get a whole new lamp buss for the 2325 as the original lights melted old buss. Thats a messy job because you have to work around all the dial structure if you don't want to be disassembling it.

I meant how many LEDs in each bulb!  Many on eBay have 3 or 6 inside them.
