Hello All !!!
First of all, as written in the title, I'm a French new vintage enthusiast and hope you will accept my english approximate writing...
I came into the vintage audio few years ago when I looked for a second hand amp as a spare for my 50's birthday party. Looking at ebay or french site, I saw some Scott 255s adds and its look attracted me a lot !
After reading different topics here or on French blogs, I decided to buy one as my first vintage audio component !
I found this nice pair Amp + Tuner :
They are in very good conditions (thanks to the seller) and I still have to change all caps of the amp...
Reading Scott history, I then discovered their Pro 100 speakers and again, it became attraction !
Few month ago, I had the luck to find a pair of Pro 100 for sell and I quickly called the seller to buy them :
Here during my first tests and comparison with my previous speakers...
I am far away from an audio specialist but I really like the sound and look of these speakers (tested with a simple 90's Pioneer amp) ! So great bass !!!
My goal now is to :
- change the amp and speakers capacitors
- try to change the woofer which have been replaced by the previous owner
- optimize the wires connexion on the speakers
And then listen, listen and listen...
My other hobbies are vintage cars (I have a 1974 Alfa Romeo coupe) and slot racing. My avatar resumes this !
Best regards to all of you !
