Thanks, all, for the welcome messages.
sledwards and richidoo: I'm in Wilmington, so within a reasonable drive to the Triangle.
Beautiful Heathkit system, sledwards. I have only a few Heathkit pieces these days--a single AS-2 on metal legs, along with three (not four, sadly) of the AS-18s. My tube amp, preamp, and tuner are long gone to a buyer who had access to timely repairs. We don't have much selection for experienced techs down here, so I might look to your area for recommendations when I need repairs. (I have a KLH Twenty-One that needs a thorough service. Bought it in Raleigh, by the way.)
Thanks again. Glad to be here.
