Charlie, the point of the post is some have interest in vintage receivers, but do not know what to look for. There must be 100 different vintage receivers but only the three models I listed are worth considering for HI-FI sound and especially so after an upgrade to modern capacitors.
No vintage receiver with the phono op-amp will sound as good as newer or new audio equipment and many will use a turn table. So, I though it was important to list non op-amp vintage receivers. Just because you think vintage gear is bad news does not mean others think that way. Okay?
