    The only receivers that I find desirable would be the Advent 300, the original Acoustic Research Receiver, KLH 52 or 52A, Harman-Kardon Citation, maybe a Harman-Kardon 930, a Carver 2000, and one of the Sherwood S-7X00 line of receivers (last ones built in the USA).

    All the other 70's Japanese jobs are okay, but there is no love.

    Political Correctness'.........defined

    "A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a t-u-r-d by the clean end."

    Most of them may be as old as we are. Maybe best left to pictures and memories.

    Hell, I'd even like to see Magnavox or Grundig make a 'good' tube console again. Ahhhh the sixties and the memories of those babies.
