[Amps] Best Alpha amp

My new (to me) 89 also developed vernier slipping and tightening the 
setscrews solved the problem.

The 89 was good but developed
two problems. A small cap in the LV power supply shorted (which I repaired
myself) and the vernier drive mechanism started slipping. It would have cost 
a
small fortune to have Alpha do the repair so I sold it as is.

Performance-wise, it was excellent. Couldn't ask for better.
