Hello everybody!
Great site with the right contents.
My short story:
Since the very early 80's I have always asked myself why can't we have a stereo with a big metalfront with warm lightning on the meters. All my friends father's had them. We had a worn-out Radionette who made a terrible sound already at low volume. But I have made progress after that. To day I have a multi-ten-thousand stereo but still I miss this metal knobs and the 70's ambience that this reciever's give.
I have looked on the marked a lot this last months and I have come to a conclusion that the sx-1980 reciever could be the real thing for me. I am used to powerful amps. Why not start at the top? My question is: Do the 1980 reciever play good enough for me? I understand that she can give a massive power, but can she also play nice? Or can she only be compared with PA amps?
I'm gonna use this reciever with my Thorens turntable. The speakers is gonna be some newer, cause my wife will only accept slim speakers in her living room. It's ok.
Hope somebody with a little more experience than me can answer.
