Concur with all that is said about this being a decent MCS unit. I have been using previously an MCS Panasonic(front panel) 2000 int. tuner amp to power 2 and four way speakers for music duty. The 2000 I found at my GF along w/speakers and a TT of the same 683-2000 line. When acheiving volume levels with my Klipsch Chorus 1, I typically am maxed out. While researching craigslist I saw this posting, which drove me to pursue this unit with it's matching 2705 tuner, which from preliminary looks, appears to be a decent tuner with stiff new feel tuning. A little over a c-note later and I may have a keeper 2 unit set. Listening now on my T-3000 speakers(2 way) with bass and treble zeroed out and loudness switch off and it is like listening to a new system, w nice bass, etc. There is talk here and other sites regarding who manufactured the different MCS lines for JC. The unit AU-8300 was cut into the original styrofoam by machine i noticed in the original box, so I am going with NEC as being the primary builder of these 2 units as both are definitely a matched set. BTW, I have some user's manual and specs on both units that were in each box.
After spinning some more vinyl and if any interest in my findings with Sirius radio and tuner/cd, I will post more about units' findings.
