The post-Silver era (1980-83) is actually very interesting. Not quite Silver Monsters and not quite BPC, the shift towards slimmer forms and extra features was in full flight. Many TOTL were quite powerful with hefty transformers though none exceeded 150 wpc. Silver faceplates and wood cases could still be found but looked at adds with digital tuners, micro-switches, and fiddly buttons. The JVC RS77 is a prime example of the transition era. Competitors were Concept 12.0D, Realistic STA-2500, Yamaha R-2000, Kenwood KR-1000, Marantz SR-9000G, Sansui 9900Z, Pioneer sx-3900. Most are still relatively affordable but only time will tell if they become collectable.
