Technics SA-500 Receiver (circa '78-'79) 55wpc. Came out same year as SL-1200 MK2

There's a wonderful tactile sensation when turning analog dials & throwing switches

Thanks. It is MINT & NOS. It was bought 29 years ago and kept in storage. The RCA terminals in the rear are shiny/ not corroded. The face plate and wood work are flawless. A perfect 10/10. 8)
