TAB V76S Studio Version! Telefunken EMI *serviced*- excellent condition & RACK
(this is the fifth and maybe last v76s i'm selling, last one sold within 5minutes, it comes out of a very big (closed)  studio for classical music which bought them in the late 60ies, this unit never changed hands)this auction is for (one) TAB V76S Studio Version serial 5771 including the original Rack for v76's or v72's.the rack includes the backconnector. (for an additional fee i can hook it up with XLR-pigtails & power.this amplifier is serviced with all electrolytic capacitors changed, and it works and sounds fantastic, incl. tested and selected diamond telefunken ef804s tubes!the tab telefunken v series runs from 220v, people in other countrys use step down converters, those can be bought cheaply.the v76s is the most desired one of the v76 family and almost impossible to find.the v76s was also used in the EMI/REDD console concept, mainly based on the IRT/Telefunken/Siemens V series.---The historic TAB company started in 1956 with the production of the V76 version as mentioned above, adding the V76 with 120Hz cut in 1960, since than there is the 80 or 120 extension on the designation number.The 80 unit was aimed for the radio market, the 120 for TV studios.Both units are the same with the difference in the filter choke that set the cut off frequency.Also in 1960 the "S" version was introduced, "S" stand original for "Schallplatte" or for Vinyl Disk, indicating "Studio use" and in 1965 official changed to "Studio".The "S" version is quite different, multiple switchable low cut, and also multiple switchable high cut. Filter inductor are made from NI/FE alloy for better sound performance than the standard ferrite cores in the 80/120 units.The input x-former, even barring the same part number, it is similar to the standard version, but hooked up in a different way, also a bit differently wound. There are also a few minor changes in layout, wiring, etc.
