VERY NICE CONCEPT 3.5 VINTAGE RECEIVER!  THIS IS FROM PACIFIC STEREO'S TOP MODEL LINE, CONCEPT!  I BOUGHT THIS FROM A FRIEND'S WIFE, ABOUT 5 YEARS AGO, AFTER THEY SPLIT UP AND HE MOVED AWAY SUDDENLY.  I DIDN'T REALLY NEED IT BUT SHE KNEW I WAS INTO STEREO RECEIVERS BIG TIME AND SHE NEEDED MONEY SO I PAID MORE THAN IT WAS WORTH JUST TO HELP HER OUT BECAUSE I FELT BAD FOR HER.  THERE IS NO REASON FOR ME TO KEEP IT NOW THAT I AM DOWNSIZING AND MY FRIEND IS HAPPILY REMARRIED IN TEXAS NOW.  I NEVER USED IT FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME.  I KNOW MY FRIEND BOUGHT IT NEW IN 1978 OR 1979.  HE GREW UP IN SAN FRANCISCO AND I THINK THAT WAS CLOSE TO PACIFIC STEREO HEADQUARTERS.  I'M PRETTY CERTAIN THAT THE UNIT IS COMPLETELY ORIGINAL SO YOU MAY WANT A PROFESSIONAL TECHNICIAN TO CHECK IT OUT TO GET IT BACK TO PERFECT.  DURING TESTING, I THOUGHT THERE WAS A FAINT BIT OF STATIC UNDERNEATH THE MUSIC.  THIS RECEIVER WAS VERY CLEAN TO BEGIN WITH, BUT I CLEANED IT THOROUGHLY INSIDE AND OUT.  I AM SELLING IT FOR PARTS OR NOT WORKING BECAUSE I THINK IT STILL HAS AN EXTREMELY FAINT HINT OF BACKGROUND STATIC WHEN PLAYING MUSIC AND I HAVE TO RECOMMEND TAKING IT TO A TECHNICIAN IF YOU HEAR THAT ALSO.  THE OVERALL SOUND IS BIG AND BOLD WITH A STAGE PRESENCE BELYING IT'S 35 WPC AND GOOD SOUND SEPARATION. THESE RECEIVERS ARE BUILT EXTREMELY WELL (LIKE TANKS) AND WILL GIVE MARANTZ, PIONEER, AND SANSUI RECEIVERS OF SIMILAR OR HIGHER WATTAGE A BATTLE FOR HALF THE PRICE! A COPY OF THE OWNER'S MANUAL IS INCLUDED (NOT AN ORIGINAL, BUT A SEVEN PAGE COPY).
