New workshop ... and Mike the Techy.

PictureMike at home in our workshop.
Things 'are a changin' here at the Hangar.

We have just (nearly) finished our new work shop/repairs centre, thanks to help from my mates boney and Kevin.

Boney showed me how to lay the floor and Kevin did a sterling job with the electrics, fitting complete new mains boards, 3 banks of bench switches and strip lighting. Also, the wood working shop's electrics has been sorted by Kev too.. pictures to follow...

We would also like to welcome Mike Pointer, the well known south coast valve wizard... when it comes to vintage hifi knowledge, Mike is at the top of the tree, having owned his own hifi shop 'Station Sounds' in Worthing (situated on the Worthing's train station platform!)

Mike will be taking on our repairs and modifications, as he has a vast knowledge of vintage British gear and is as passionate as we are.

We have a number of Mike's personal collection of restored amplifiers in the shop, which we regularly use, and we are always happy to show off Mikes handy work, which is among the best in his field.

Completely kitted out and in full operation.

This week is a bit of a treat for vintage valve amp collectors, as we have aquired a large number of classic and sought after amplifiers.

The ones in the video are not all we have, and will keep you posted when others are ready for the shop.

We have for sale... the following little beauties:

Rogers Cadet 2 pre/power
Rogers Cadet 3 pre/power
Rogers Junior mono blocks with passive and active pres.
Archon 101 pre/power and tuner.
Mullard 10 10 Stereo integrated
Mullard 10 10 stereo pre/power
Armstrong 226 receiver
Pioneer valve receiver

There are also a few others that we need to sort out......they are all  serviced and working and can be demonstrated at the shop. There are 2 more videos further down in blog, showing both the Cadet 2 and the Archon in action....


The Arhcon 101 power amplifier

This is one of the coolest little amps we have had in... wonderful, functional looks, with sounds to match!
Picture
Here is a little video of it in all it's glory!

Rogers Cadet 2 valve pre and power amplifier

Picture
I've got a soft spot for the Rogers valve amps.. I lived with a Cadet in my main system for a couple of years and loved every minute of it...

we are lucky to have a few of the early examples in this week, including this cracking example of the stunning cadet 2 pre and power.

Fully serviced and working like a dream...



Here is a quick video demonstrating it in our main listening room.
