I have had Dynaco stuff for years and played 'em to death! My favorite was the Mk3 combined with a Pas 3 preamp. I had a set of 70's stacked, which sounded great. Just seemed that I always had problems with 'runaway' tubes in them. There was a fix, but was out of my budget at that time (and pre - internet, I was on my own for finding fixes). Found the Marks and loved 'em. But, when the kids came into the family, the space was needed for other things, so they got boxed up and stored. I also tried one of the NEW "Soundvalves" 70 setup, supposidly with all the fixes. It did the same thing. So I boxed it up. Still prefer the Mk. Oh, this was before the prices went crazy on this tube stuff, and you could still buy USA made tubes!
If I could find the place called "Somewhere", I could find "Anything"
