Amp made between 1977-1979
Tuner made from 1977-1978
Found these guys neglected on flebay. Arrived poorly packaged and of course severe damage to both units
. Was refunded, but those funds went back into repairs.
1) Amp: Casing and frame work damaged/dented. Straightened frame/cage
2) All switches and sliders cleaned/lubed. 2 small caps replaced
3) Faceplate on amp severely damaged. Replaced with donor.
4) New LED's for meters enroute. Found NOS (Originals)
1) Tuner: Casing and frame damage/dented. Straightened frame/cage
2) All switches cleaned/lubed. Tuner alignment not needed.
3) All dead bulbs replaced with LEDs; Tuner dial needle, meters & Stereo FM indicator.
For about 50wpc, amp delivers warm smooth bass with a nice punch. Mids and highs are crisp. The 5 band eq, for what it is, is well balanced and works very nicely. Had no problems pushing a pair of Mission M71's. Currently on a pair of Boston Acoustic T830's. Again with no issues. As a matter of fact it does better with the T830's than the M71's. Reminds me of the old Sansui's.
