Here is a Magnavox Micromatic console on the Hudson valley craigslist.

$65 is a fair price!

Nice shape...

Nice, and tubey for sure.

I've restored one of those consoles for a customer a few years back.
It's at best a mediocre-sounding unit, with a single-ended amp and lousy tweeters.

There's a big following for single-ended tube amps. If I was picking this thing up, it would be for a part-out, anyway. I'd use the amp and sell off the rest.

Yes, I know about those people into SE amps.
I guess, if you like a lousy 4.5 watt EL84 amp with dinky transformers, go for it.
To me, that's not classed as "hifi".
