Looking for info on KLH 71

[michaelhigh]

I recently picked up a KLH 71 SS receiver on CL here in St. Louis for $120. I've Googled it to no result whatsoever. Does anyone know wattage, age, or year manufactured? Anything at all? I need the collective wisdom to kick in so I can learn what I have and if it's worth keeping. It's silver, it's not really heavy. It doesn't tune like a Marantz or Sansui, with a spin of the dial. It takes a bit of effort to crank the dial around. Thanks in advance for anything...

It looks like a model 52 I had years ago, nice find!

Ten watts per channel. I've had a Model 50 and I still have the 71, in fact I am listening to it right now. The 50 was made in USA and the 71 was made in Japan, so it likely dates from fairly soon after assembly was sent overseas for KLH; I don't know what year that was.

Thank you fanboy. That might be the reason why it's smaller. Isn't everything in Japan smaller?
