The Dynaco stuff of the 1960's and 70's or so, and I expect that is what we are talking about were really good. So were the Eico and Heathkits, Harmon Kardon, and probably a few other DIY brands some of us misspent part of our youth on, and are still recovering from even after decades of lapse.

Suggest this thread might be better served on Vintage Hi Fi Stereo and Audio subforum here.

Best!
