I RESPONDED TO AN AD ON LETGO FOR A MARANTZ 4140 AMPLIFIER. WHEN I SPOKE TO THE OWNER, HE MENTIONED THAT IT WAS PART OF HIS. DEPARTED FATHERS AUDIO SYSTEM. WHEN I GOT TO THE HOUSE I WAS AMAZED BY WHAT I FOUND. IN THE BEAUTIFUL CUSTOM CABINET. IT TURNS OUT HIS FATHER, NOTED PHILADELPHIA PATENT ATTORNEY. JACOB TRACHTMAN, WAS ALSO A DEDICATED AUDIOPHILE FROM THE 1950S. WHEN THE GREAT ADVANCEMENTS IN AUDIO REALLY BEGAN. I ALSO FOUND HIS NOTES AND BROCHURES FROM THE EARLY 60S. WHEN HE PUT HIS DREAM CABINET SYSTEM TOGETHER. SOME OF THE ORIGINAL COMPONENTS WERE REPLACED IN THE 70S. SOME OF THE ORIGINAL COMPONENTS REMAIN, LIKE THESE PAIRS OF. ACOUSTIC RESEARCH MODEL AR-1W (WOOFER). & JANSZEN MODEL 130 ELECTROSTATIC TWEETER. AND ORIGINAL CUSTOM BUILT CROSSOVERS. FROM THE COPY OF THE APRIL 1960 ISSUE. OF GENTLEMAN’S QUARTERLY FOUND IN HIS NOTES. THIS WAS RECOMMENDED AS ONE OF THE. 5 BEST SPEAKER SETUPS AVAILABLE AT THE TIME. I HAVE MADE IT MY MISSION. TO FIND THE VINTAGE ELECTRONICS. HIDING IN THE ATTICS AND GARAGES. Check out my other items! The item “Audiophile Pair Acoustic Research AR-1W Woofer & Janszen 130 Electrostat Tweeter” is in sale since Thursday, May 11, 2017.
