:eek: What do you mean you can't find anything on the Altec 1594B? Here's a link from my site to the spec sheet on it - Altec 1594B Spec Sheets (http://www.voiceofthetheatre.com/1594B.th.htm)

:bash: Nawty Nawty! You should have checked out my website first!

Seriously, though, the "B" series was much more stable than the "A"'s, and are a very good amplifier. The only problem with servicing them today is if the transformers go out, you're sunk. Everything else, however, can be serviced by IraTec Pro Audio Repair.

I am sure that a vintage amp like this has a loyal following but I think it probably belongs on that thread of Ian's. ;)

...above your post.

This was answered by me on 7/20/2004 - check out the spec sheet. It will tell you how to hook it up.

It' ain't no music store amplifier...
