Dynaco A25 Speakers

My keen eye spotted a local pair of Dynaco A25 speakers offered up locally with no labels on the ad, I recognized them by the backs of the speakers.

Back in 2017 I had a pair of Dynaco A25's and in 2016 I had a pair of Dynaco A35's and now I get this great pair of 25's to listen to again.

 

 

 This pair of A25's are in great shape with all corners square and the grills in perfect condition. The usual sanding and re oiling to cabinets will be in order. I currently have these hooked to my 2 watt tube amp in my office and I am loving them. 

The bass is better than the KLH Model 17's I have, on par with Advents that I have had in the past. I may replace the crossover cap with a new Solen one.

I am happy to have these speakers again and I think they will be sticking around for awhile.

November 11th update, I have replaces the original capacitor with a Solen polypropylene cap and sanded the cabinets, a coating of Circa 1850 Terra Nova Naturoil has brought the cabinets back to their glory.

The water stain is going to stay in one speaker and the small scratches have been smoothed out pretty good in the other.

 

 

Dynaco A25 Speakers

My second set of Dynaco's after the A35's is the smaller brother the A25.

I enjoyed the A35's when I had them and found them best suited to a Solid State amplifier, these A25's I feel are the same. They do  not pair up well with tube gear.

There is plenty of information on these speakers and they were proven to be wildly popular in the 70's for good reason.

These have wonderful SEAS drivers in them and are extremely well built with a mid century modern wood finish.
