So are any of you guys into the old school stereo receivers?
Most of these bad boys from the list below, are from the late 70's and early 80's and they haven't made anything that sounds the same since.

The raw clean power just isn't in todays products. I'm going to hunt something down for the man cave out in the shop to abuse the neighbors a bit. If you have some old school stuff, what is it, Yamaha, Sansui, Murantz or something else?

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.

That was Panasonic's good stuff.

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.

Yeah, some of that stuff is ringing the bell. I think people woke up and figured out how crappy todays stuff sounds compared to the super powered units of that era.

That is the way I saw it, with my 70 w per channel unit. It is all about the speakers, and that was a hobby of mine for the for about 15 years. Built several sets, now I just have a set of Bose 601s.

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

That's the way my brothers was. The neighbor called up and asked "Seeing how I can hear every note of your music, can I put in a request for a song?"

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!!!!
