Picked up a stunning example of this (rather rare?) receiver. Not a tremendous amount of info out there, made between 1976-1981. Although technically not a "monster" at 50w/ch, it has monster dimensions - it's two feet wide. They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but this is one of the most gorgeous pieces of audio equipment I've ever seen and the controls are laid out completely horizontally for outstanding ergonomics. I'm trying to decide what it sounds like, and I'm thinking it leans towards Yamaha - a more balanced, clean presentation. It is completely original, boards are laid out in the easiest possible manner for service and I will be replacing electrolytics this coming winter.
