I've never quite understood what a receiver does. I think it was the music industry's version of blinker fluid.

Cool thread Greg.
I had no idea my old stuff was appreciating. I still have my Kenwood tuner and receiver from 72. It is only 70 watts RMS per channel, but the distortion is almost non existent. It is coupled with a Mistubishi DPEC7 direct drive automatic turntable, strobe controlled digital vinyl machine. Recently, I gave away a Pioneer receiver that was 130 watts per channel RMS, had no idea it was worth anything. I had bought it at a garage sale, and put new output transistors in it.

I swore by Technics products back in the day. I don't think I have any of that stuff now.

I don't think I have played an album in 5 or 6 years, this thread may just stimulate that action. Always wanted a Teac or Akai RR, but never got one. I think every other guy I knew in the Navy, had one though. |

My brother had/has a Yamaha CR-840 (which is small compared to most on my list) and that thing will knock the paint off the wall, with booming clean sound. That thing is only rated at 60W per channel.

It has been a couple years, but I had it cranked on Led Zep where the whole neighborhood was enjoying it. |

Pioneer SX1050 120w/ch through Bose 802s.
Breathtaking. This system has also served as stage monitors in its day. Have Phillips 212 and 312 turntables. I like the 212 better. Great thread!!!! Dinny |
