Looks like crap and I don’t have the correct din cable to test it properly so I can only hear it through the right, and the power light doesn’t work which is why I suspect it was sold as not working.
Skip or save ? Owes me a whopping £23.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180816/1c806bbf2ad0c9c7f5662263f6b7cc31.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180816/9d7d0053a38eb1478b444a2ee59a8fbc.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180816/efd365576fc1a6839aa43980f3850063.jpg

Yeah, save it.

That case can be tidied and the internals are not complicated. If you only have output from one channel, it could be down to something as simple as a dirty control.

As an amplifier it's a nice little one for a starter system. In its day it was often paired with something like a Garrard SP25 and say an Audio Technica AT66 cartridge with some budget bookshelf speakers. I believe the output is 6W/channel, so that will limit the range of speakers with which it can be used.

If it were me, I would refurbish it and find someone who might use and enjoy it. Failing that, give it to a charity shop of your choice. Don't bin it - there's far to much stuff going into landfill as it is.

My father used one in his system, driving Wharfedale RS8/DD drive units in Wharfedale design 1.5 cu ft distributed port enclosures. Didn't sound too bad at all.
