Thank you!

Since that post the SX-9000 was traded for a Sansui TU-555 tuner to mate with my Sansui AU-505 amp.

I am in the process of re-habbing (very slowly...) the Kenwood. The brittle "egg-timer" control broke and it looks like I can use a brass sleeve to replace it. Two lamps need to be replaced but I found a couple at RS that should work. My biggest problem is I can't stay focused enough on what I already have at the house. The local thrifts and CL always seem to yield an interesting piece every couple of weeks.......
