Very nice little early seventies Nikko tuner.

Aye they were a nice range those models, my fav was the '501' Tooner/Amp

[Rare Bird]

They used Celestion Bass units (44/66)

The dust would be the lease of my worries looking at those speaker grills

I used to have one of those. Try as I might to purge it from memory it just wont go

IIRC wasn't the whole thing a Rega Planet knockoff ? The arm looked like an Acos lustre until you used it Anyway, I enjoyed smashing it up & throwing it out for the bin men.

Stone cold bargain... Okay they are a little tired but for that price its a no brainer for a second / workshop / garage system.

I reckon you could be right there James, I also think they would tidy up quite nicely with a bit of judicious care and attention

They are good budget speakers... I still have a pair. Once the tweeter cap is changed for something better they really come to life ! Bit of a shame Sony decided to fit gold plated binding posts rather than film caps on the tweeters but there you go I suppose gold looks better...

Sugar would have briefed Rega to make him a cheap piece of shit that 'looked cool'. He has not an ounce of quality in his thinking and Rega would have been stripped to a few quid margin per unit.
I know as he tried to do that with the company I worked for then but we wouldn't grovel enough for the business.
