Default And now, for something completely different: Eico Cortina 3070

For folks who are up for some vintage stuff:

Announcing a new article about transforming the Eico Cortina 3070 from a wallflower into a princess! In 1967, this was Eico's first solid-state integrated amplifier. Some snubbed it and we explore why. With critical mods, schematics, history, circuit explanations and more, the article explains how to make a silk purse out of what some thought was a sow's ear. Turns out, it doesn't take that much! Cinderella was there all the time.

The mods improve power, stability, flatness, noise, RIAA accuracy, bias control and distortion. Discover the secret to where the design came from...

The article is the top story at: http://www.tronola.com/

Enjoy,

Steve L.
