Do you have any gear model that you believe only you have?

Any of the people here who build their own equipment can say this.

I believe my Electrohome PA-100 MK-1's to be 3 out of 8 remaining. That's what my research in the last year and a half has revealed.

I still have my Electro Voice Interface A speakers. I may be the only one here with a pair.

I believe I'm the only one here with these two models.

Flatline Design Model 175:


Only ~30 units (units, not pairs) were built/sold. Nice speaker with a 175CM long true ribbon element handling from 350Hz-44kHz. The ribbons are currently in a DIY speaker that I know I'm the only one around with such a setup (paired the ribbons up with a set of Magnepan Tympani bass panels).

Infinity ES-1 electrostatic headphones with ME-10D energizer:



Not too many of these around due to a pretty high headphone MSRP of $550 in 1976.

I'd love to be disproved on these so I can share notes with other owners.

Thats actually a pretty hard feat, considering there are quite a few hard core AK members. I may be the only one with this Ortofon arm, Early pro mono version.

Anyone have one of these? Olson RA-290. This one is acutally my first one that I let a girl talk me into selling. Two years later I found another.

I used to be the only owner of a pair of Straut Classic 11S speakers, but now they reside with rod-G6000!

How about Cewin-Vega HED CV-3000's? Anyone else?

The Vista Amp in my Signature Line is a prototype (hence the "P" designation)...does that count? I know that cruiseaire has a "different" prototype from the same company (perhaps that's a disqualifier :scratch2.

I have a pair of Barcus Berry glass plate tweeters.
I also have an ESS electronic crossover 2242.
I have the only SOTA Sapphire turntable built in Nashville. All the others came from California. A friend of mine designed some jigs for SOTA and they gave him the parts. When he upgraded to the STAR (vacuum) I bought his. The Lustre arm may be the only one in AK land.

Yamaha HA-1 head amp. More commonly known as a phono preamp. And, a Yamaha MA10 Personal Studio System Headphone Amplifier. A small, red plastic, battery powered headphone amp that is about 9"x6"x1.5" thick.

The tasty little number that is my avatar.
Tannoy/ Micro TM 55 DD from 1975.
Only made one year.
Predecessor to Micro/ Seiki.

Unfortunately I don't have one anymore, having parted with it on eBay a few years ago for over $400.

It got replaced with a Sony PS-X7 for $72. Try getting one for that price now.

The Sony is a slightly better table, just not as pretty.

I haven't seen any others with a Yamaha CD-37. Manufactured in 1985. I think I can get the owner's manual from my grandma's husband(he's the original owner).

Yesh, I got a pair around here somewhere...

Hey! Wait a minute!!! What the?!?!?!

Looks like you have not only the only pair here, but also the only STACKED pair here.:thmbsp:

A Latvian speaker, called the Baltek. I actually landed two pair- one pair with blown woofers, but complete.

The uncommon 3D acoustics subwoofer.

I've got a rare Philips SC-80 pre-amp, same as the rare-ish Marantz SC-80 pre-amp, a duplicate except for the badging.

A not terribly rare, but still uncommon Sony CDP- C-102. Only seen one other around. Who knows, maybe they were junk and were all tossed.

Two Sony CDP-308ESd models. Pretty uncommon, with minimal literature on 'em. Of course, both mine are broken.

And a Sony Switcher that's uncommon- I'm nearly 100% sure I've got the only one. I can't recall the name of it, so can't post it. can't reach it, either. sorry.

DAK remote-controlled power conditioner and audio timer.

Nikko Time Delay synth.

It is a great pity that we cannot experience others efforts (or experience)
