Thanks for the compliments... it isn't the top of the line Akai stack that I will hopefully have some day, but it's close...the 2600 can rock the house for sure... I have it driving a set of Pioneer HPM500's and a set of Realistic T-120's
I will hopefully replace the AM-2600 with a AM-2950, the AT-2650 is the totl separate tuner for Akai of that era, the EG-A80 is considered totl (although there is a EG-A90 that they came out with a year after the 80, but all it adds is multicolored frequency led indicators, where the 80 just has green, the specs are the same), I would like to upgrade the CS-705D (I got it for $10 in perfect condition at a local thrift), there are so many Akai tape decks to choose from I have no idea where to look for a totl unit
