Lots of info on them....just not the model. And I did go through the schematics and couldn't find what seemed like a match. So pardon the simple question!

And the rear labeling...

Any idea? Thanks much!!

    Thanks for all the replies and information!! Much appreciated!!

    These are actually a friends. He'd traded into them and I don't think will be keeping them or if he did, would be a second or third system. He wasn't sure if they were working right and I said I'd like to look them over and check them out. A listen in my own system...that's not all bad! But it's been too long and I need to get them going and cleared out.

    Should they become available...I'll be sure and let the forum know!

    Thanks again!
