Nostalgia has me on a constant look out for various receivers that have come and gone into my life over the years, to add to my piles of clutter. It's easy to find tons of various 70s receivers. But have you ever tried looking for a specific one? Sometimes it can be nearly impossible to find something specific. anyways - just wanted to throw this out there to see if anyone may happen to have one of these kicking around unwanted.
First - I'd love to find another of my first quad receiver. It was a columbia masterwork. I have never seen another one exactly like it, nor have I found a picture of one. But I'll do my best to describe it.
It has 8-track/am/fm/ and turntable built into the top. Quad 8-track. input selection was done by push buttons. The right side had up/down moving sliders for left/right balance, front/back balance, volume, and separation. Next to the selection push buttons was a push button for SQ that would be pushed on or off. I can include a picture of what the 8-track portion of the receiver looks like
There are other receivers that have this 8-track that also have a joystick - the one I'm looking for has no joystick.
I'm also looking for a specific soundesign stereo receiver. am/fm/8-track/turntable receiver. I have a picture of one without the turntable, which is a model 4485b
I wouldn't pass on one like this without the turntable, but I really want one exactly like I had, with the turntable built into the top.
Also on my wish list, a tenna HL-3105
bonus points if it has a garrard turntable like this on top of it (although the platter isn't exactly right on this one)
