That's a 7591 amp? I don't remember.


yes


Have you used any of the recent reissues? I picked up a Pilot receiver
that uses 7591. They're still good but I always like to have a spare
set and I'd rather not pay $100+ for a quad.


Back when I had my 299C, there was a guy in Lithuania who was selling
a huge number of them on eBay. I was told by a fellow Scott owner that
this guy stumbled onto a warehouse full of them and bought them all,
and that he would have enough stock for decades of Scott owners. I
wish I could remember his name, but check out 7591s on eBay and see if
he's still around.


He was selling them for $14 each, if I remember correctly.


I think those days are long gone but I'll look.Electro Harmonix and
the other reissues are about $80/quad. I think an NOS quad of
Sylvanias (who was the only manufacturer AFAIK) are $130+.
