This receiver is in relatively good cosmetic condition, but certainly not perfect. The biggest issue is that the silver lid has been repainted and has some smalls dents in it. Other than that, the cabinet’s paint is original with the expected scuffs and scratches. It still has it’s original rubber feet, however two of them are starting to crack. The faceplate is certainly original and looks good. The knobs has dust in the small grooves as a result of years in storage, but these can be cleaned up with patience and Q-Tips. Inside, it looks complete and all original. I see no modifications. The receiver powers up; the tube filaments glow and meter lamps illuminate, but no further testing has been done. This receiver is large/heavy and will require lots of packaging material. Having said all that, local pick-up is welcomed and encouraged. This equipment is part of a very large silent-key estate we recently acquired, all of which has been in a storage unit for approximately 15 years. We have not done any testing beyond what is specifically mentioned above. There are a few reasons for this, but it essentially comes down to the fact that they almost always need some level of service and it’s simply not cost effective to pay our technician to spend time going through them. It may or may not need components replaced (caps, resistors, tubes, etc), controls cleaned/lubricated, alignment, and so on. Unless you are qualified and capable of working on this unit yourself, or are willing to pay a qualified individual to do the work for you, we suggest you revisit the idea of whether this is the right equipment for you.
