My best find yet!

I've gotten some good deals in the past, but I've never found anything yet in this kind of condition! 1977 Hitachi HA-330 in the box. All the controls feel like new, it sounds phenomenal. I realize it needs to be re-capped, but damn it's great!

Looks like it was well cared for. And that 160 watts input would provide some serious output wattage too.

Sweet! That looks like brand new.

If it sounds that good, I'd run it until it doesn't, then fix it.

Power consumption is a poor indicator of audio power output. Several variables affect output power.
