RE: Can you ID stereo from 1974 movie "The Conversation"?

Not an Empire. I agree with a RoK as there is a known in front of the arm that RoK had. The back of the arm makes it the Shure 232.

The amp appears to be a Grommes from the face and layout. I can not get sufficient detail on my tablet to guess on the tape deck. I can not make out a meter or eye and think it maybe a playback unit. These were popular when decks first came out and the tape head plugged into the tape head input of the amp. At the time record/playback units were very expensive and it was not unusual in the very beginning for persons to buy playback decks to save money or who thought of them as they did the record player.
