I have a rare collection of untested vintage preamp/compressor/outboard transformers, tubes, electrolytic caps, resistors and circuits from Mercury Records/Fine Records in the 1950's for sale. They came inherited to me from well known Jazz and Classical engineer Robert Fine's Studio from his son. This gear was used to record Duke Ellington, Theolonious Monk, Quincy Jones... so many amazing producer/musicians. And Robert Fine himself transformed the way live performances were captured with these tools.
There's top of the line UTC and ADC A line Transformers, Vintage Electrolytic Caps, Resistors and Circuits. The RCA Clear Tops were given to me from a custom vintage dealer in Brooklyn, and threw those in there as well.
The stuff from Bob Fine's studio hasn't been retested since he was recording with them, but have been kept in good condition since. The RCA Clear Tops are working in general (they're older so in varying condition), but I just replaced my Ampex 601 preamp using some of them and it sounds beautiful.
