Keates-Hacker specialised in handcrafting opulent "custom-built" receivers for discerning audiophiles.
This model is in a hand-carved weathered oak cabinet.
Their signature was the use of high-valve-count chassis boasting the latest technological advancements, housed in bespoke cabinets tailored to each client's specifications.
These luxurious sets typically included a prestigious Voigt loudspeaker, ensuring exceptional sound quality. To offer complete peace of mind, each receiver came equipped with a set of spare valves and a five-year guarantee.
The Dynatron Commander would be an example of a Chassis that was installed in Keates-Hacker cabinets.
