This is a vintage Dynaco SCA-35 stereo tube integrated amplifier.Th Dynaco is clean and works well.This Dynaco was already built,I did NOT build the unit,nor do I know if it was factory built.There are NO manuals and No original boxes.The Dynaco has all original controls,switches and knobs.The face is clean and looks good.Here is more on the Dynaco SCA-35: The SCA-35 was Dynaco's very first integrated amplifier. An integrated amplifier is a combination of a pre-amplifier and an amplifier. So despite its name, it is not simply an amplifier - it is a preamp and an amp. Tube amplifiers require a pre-amp between the signal source (record player, CD player, and tuner) and the amp. The function of the preamp is to amplify the very weak signals from the source to a level which the amplifier can work on to further amplify the signal to room filling sound levels. The preamp contains the volume control, and can also house tone controls (bass and treble). It can also provide a balance control. The SCA-35 is a compact 13.5 in (L) X 4.25 in (H) X 10.0 in (D). Weight is heavy at 20 pounds, mostly due the heavy output transformers. The cover is brown in color (same as Dynaco ST-70 and ST-35). Speaker taps at the back are for 8 ohms and 16 ohms. Rare hum controls are provided for each channel. The hum controls can be set at the lowest hum level for low level inputs (for example phono). This position gives the highest S/N ratio which is perfect for low level inputs. For high level inputs the hum controls can be set a higher hum levels.

Output power is 17.5 watts per channel (same as Dynaco ST-35). Frequency response is +- 0.25 db 20 Hz-20kHz. Harmonic distortion is less than 1% from 20Hz-20kHz within 1 db of 17.5 watts per channel. Intermodulation distortion is 0.1% at 1 watt, rising to less than 1% at 17.5 watts per channel. Market value for a used SCA-35 in excellent to mint condition is US$300.00. Price new in 1964 for the kit version of the SCA-35 was US$104.95.Shipping is available to lower 48 states ONLY.PayPal accepted w/fee's.Local pick up in Milw,Wisc 53216 is welcome,Local pick up is cash,no checks,no cards.Email with any questions.No manuals or original boxes.Price is $215.00+shipping.Money orders accepted.Also I did NOT build the Dynaco,I did NOT test the tubes,unit does work well.I did NOT replace any components or tubes.
