Official Old School Collectors Thread

If you tell me the length I can let you know for sure (no ****, LOL). It looks like a HiFonics Colossus VI to me. Have you tested it, does it work? I might be interested in it working or not if you want to let go of it. If it is a Colossus VI, rated at 600x2 at 4 ohms, 900x2 at 2 ohms or 1800w bridged at 4 ohms.
If it's approx. 29" long, it's a Colossus

i was thinking of buying it from a friend he said it works and he had bigger capacitors put in and he had to send it to tennessee because it was not properly installed.this friday i may get it and if i find a generation x zeus then this one will be up for sale

Hi, I just found this interesting thread!

I own black Lanzar optidrive 50c (mint) and it has acrylic glass back plate. I have been told that it's original Lanzar but is it? Does anybody know? I've never seen other 50c like this one.

Post some pics if you can. I don't believe it's factory, but you never know...there could have been a select few w/ a plexi bottom. Anything is possible...

bigdwiz - where in NC are you located? I saw your youtube channel and I'm one of those testing type nuts as well. I have a ZED Leviathan III I'd be willing to let you test out. Old school name at least.

Bought this lil amp LAST WEEK for $15. Sparkomatic AMP 6000.

It is 60 watts of old skool power.

Found it sitting on a shelf in a local store called Absolute Electronics.

The store was packed with vintage Tube TV's and old electronics.

The seller tested it and cleaned it for me when I was there.

Sounded really nice !

It is the smallest amp I have ever seen !

It measure 4 inches long and 3.5 inches wide.

I think it is from either 1984 or 1985

heres some pics
