Hi Guys

Doing the usual rounds today i came across this in the BHF.....:eek: in absolutely mint condition user manuals & guarantee although i think this might have run out :lol: but didn't go for it as it was £50 but is a rarity unit not many around it seems the question is i cant stop thinking about it and i think im gonna have tomorrow morning and nab it to get it for looks alone but its gonna bug me all evening now...:rolleyes: these are well expensive in the 70's it seems by the HI-FI yearbooks.....

Are these early techy receivers any good and worth a go at this price? stupid question as i think my mind is made up....:eek:

Looks like a typical '70s Japanese receiver, as built by one of the "Big 5". If it's in good to excellent cosmetic condition, then £50 would seem reasonable.

Yep im not sure i should of walked away but will go in and make an offer tomorrow...:eyebrows: and hopefully it hasn't sold but was only a couple of hours before they closed but you never know.
Condition was well exceptional & kit of this era i have a soft spot for....

Actually that's what I thought you meant, though to be pedantic "exceptional" is an absolute, and cannot be qualified.

Even so, I rather like "well exponential" - something whose condition gets better with time?
