Vintage Panasonic SA

7104. USD

QR Code Link to This Post This is a unique piece of audio history. There was a lot of excitement around quad in the early to mid-1970s, and this receiver was one reason why. The Panasonic SA-710 could accept four discrete channels for phono (there were stereo phono inputs too) as well as quad tape inputs and outputs. As of 1970, a standard for FM quad had not been developed, but the tuner had an MPX output, which presumably could be connected to an FM quad decoder box. The 710 also had a connector on the back for a four-channel balancer.

This unit offers the usual bass/treble/loudness/headphones, etc. It is as solid as a rock (and big and heavy!) It requires speakers to be connected with wire that ends in an RCA-type plug. Bare wire will not connect. I have tested it and it powers on, all the display lights work including the green/red stereo/quad display, and the unit produces full, rich sound with no scratchiness to the volume control. Has been completely cleaned and serviced. All new lights.

Hard to find these days in good cosmetic and functioning condition! The new owner will be getting a nice piece of vintage QUAD gear.
