Welcome to
Jim's SAE Site

THIS SITE IS DEDICATED TO THE PRESERVATION AND ENJOYMENT OF ALL SERIES OF STEREO GEAR MANUFACTURED BY

SCIENTIFIC AUDIO ELECTRONICS - LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA

  I , like many others, became obsessed with SAE equipment and its sound in the early1980's. I think they are a perfect match for Infinity speakers. There is quite a large following of people who love their SAE equipment and it seems like more people are interested in SAE everyday. I have assembled this site to help new and veteran SAE enthusiasts find the information they need. I have put online the most informative spec sheets and brochures in my possession. I have listed my inventory of brochures and manuals to help those who need it. Anyways, take a look around  and feel free to email me if you have any questions or suggestions, can contribute more information or any corrections.

One quick note, I am not an electronics tech. I know how to hook it all up and that's about it.  I don't know the difference between a capacitor and a diode, so any questions in regard to repair should be directed to the SAE  group. mailto:SAE_Talk@yahoogroups.com

Above is my SAE BP-3 filler panel that Morris Kessler and Mike Pontelle were gracious enough to autograph for me. This is the perfect finishing touch to my collection. I am very grateful to both of them to accommodate a SAE nut.

I have obtained a 11th  R1/R2 style rack so now I have three full walls of racks. I hate to admit it, but other than a few more goodies, I might be towards the end of my collection. Nahh... At least that is what I tell my wife - well - in all honesty - she is a pretty good sport about it.
