Nice unit. 50 watts RMS with real wood veneer cabinet.

Cosmetically that is easily my favorite R/S receiver.

I have an STA-95 that's pretty much the same (earlier version). [Not mine in the pic below, mine has the power button]. The 960 was only made for one year.

I agree with mhardy, above. This is one beautiful receiver, hard not to like its style! And powerful enough for most. Except for all the guys on this site that have a Monster complex (60, 70 and 100 lbs receivers, that is)! lol

I used to own one in the early 80's. I bought it since I can add 3 tape decks to it. This is before Radio Shack came out with their tape control center.

Fine unit. Realistic had many good looking, and sounding Recievers back then. I'm using their STA-7 10 wpc now from 1979 with the matching minimus 7 speakers for TV Audio and casual music listening in my living room. It Sounds so much better than the speakers in my 32" HDTV. and takes up so little space on my shelf.
