Hi, anyone know what this is?

 

[cademan]

Is this a trick question??

 

[caddisgeek]

no, just a stupid one

 

[Lady Ayeka]

looks like a TECHNICS to me...

 

[caddisgeek]

that it is, according to my source a Technics SA-T470, 45 wpc.

Cant fiind any info on this model though, any takers

Always interesting to see these unique models. Never saw a Technics receiver of that era with a front control panel layout quite like that one. Do you own this unit?

Hi, I can identify this receiver quite easily.

It is a Technics SA-T470 built in New Zealand by Fisher and Paykel under licence to Matsushita in the early 1980's. These were and still are a very common receiver in NZ. There is also a bigger brother called the SA-T670. I've had several of these, and they go well. The front panel layout is the same but has more controls and VU meters, if I see a photo of one I'll post it.
Cheers!
Glen

I found one in a deceased estate sale (with matching era Technics speakers) and have hooked it up to my Wharfdale E90s and SL1900. Wow it sounds great! Can’t find much info on the net though. She’s a keeper!

Hi, anyone know what this is?

Yup.

Evidently in the 15 years since the thread was started the image (?) the OP posted has left the building?
So here's one.

TY for that, I hate it when I open a post asking what things are and there's no pictures!
