Vintage Receiver – As-Is with Character and Potential

This vintage receiver is being sold as-is and is perfect for tinkerers, restorers, or audio enthusiasts looking for a rewarding project. While it does have its quirks, it still shows signs of life and functionality:

  • Tuner Dial Operational: The tuner dial moves smoothly and functions mechanically, though it's currently not picking up stations—ideal for someone with the skills to diagnose and restore.

  • Working Inputs: All input channels are functional and deliver sound. To achieve optimal volume, it does require turning the knob to around the halfway point.

  • Great Restoration Candidate: With its classic design and partially working components, this receiver could be a gem in the right hands.

Whether you're looking for a unique piece to restore or a parts unit with potential, this receiver offers a solid foundation at a great value.

CONDITION

As Is

Missing one Knob

Functional Condition: This receiver has many problems and is being sold as is. The tuner dial functions, but it won't pick up any channels. The inputs function, but you need to turn it up to half volume to get a good level of volume to come from the speakers.

My Sony 400 disc player stopped working. I watched YouTube videos and came across this website. Since 90% of failures are the belts I decided to try to fix it myself with the help of the video. It was the belts and after installing them it works great again. I received the belts really quickly and with no prior knowledge took the case off with help from the video and installed the belts myself. So happy to have my player working again. I will always contact Spencertified for my parts and repair needs. Thanks so much. Try them, you won't be disappointed.

Spencer and Amy helped us find 40 or so speakers to build a wall out of them at a restaurant and were super helpful finding and loading up all of the speakers. The wall turned out great and would definitely recommend them for anything sound!

REALLY! It was cool to do business with honest people who listened and gave me just what I was looking for. I asked a lot of questions about equipment and was shown different options, and, different prices, straight forward and honest.

Spencer was super helpful and knowledgeable when I visit him. I experienced a slight issue with some hardware and he was more than willing to make it right. As a nice gesture he gave me a slight upgrade to the equipment I was purchasing. He’s very reasonable and enjoyable to work with! Highly recommend!
