When I got the vintage bug, never imagined I would end up an MCS setup straight out of the 1980 JCPenney catalog. The 3245 was the worst of the bunch when I got it and still has a few loose ends I need to tie up, but it sounds fantastic now. Still hunting for a 3035 EQ at a price I’m willing to pay.
