Return to The Portable Collection

With solid quality and reliability, these are superbly heavy sets with very good sound. The build quality extends to the mirror-finish chassis and heavy wooden case.

I currently have three of these lovely sets awaiting restoration, one being without lid and now re-covered in red leatherette see below. But they all have the original mains/battery selector switch knob - also used as a DAC90A bandswitch knob!
