Message: <blockquote data-quote="dB-r" data-source="post: 6219844" data-attributes="member: 574699">The old amps were not hand built.  Wave soldered just like the new ones.  The Transformers and other LARGE HEAVY parts that don't wave solder well were hand-soldered.  Wave soldering has improved since back then too...I agree having all the crossovers on the amps is not necessarily the best route to go because you have to question the quality of the builtin crossovers of these newer amps compared to using say an Audiocontrol seperate crossover box with 100 knobs on it back in the day, but the good thing is, on most of the newer full range amps you can disable the builtin crossovers at the flick of a switch and still use your antique Audiocontrol crossover box with 100 freaking knobs on it!  LOL.  Gotta love those old crossovers, I have a few here...</blockquote>
