Our technician has completely gone through and 'Certified' this unit, cleaning everything including all switches, controls and contacts for quiet, positive operation. All I/O and 'control' solder joints inspected and re-flowed as necessary. ALL NEW dial lamps light solidly and inputs sonically intact. DC measurements taken 'post-preamp', 'post driver board' and 'post power amp'. Bias current set to spec. We also aligned the tuner dial indicator and tuner front-end for optimum AM & FM performance as older internal tuner components have always drifted on vintage gear over the years. Once the unit's electronics were addressed, it was cosmetically detailed inside and out. All original, extruded face, and milled aluminum knobs in great shape after detailing. Internal and external dial screen and window in perfect shape. All inputs tested and both amplifiers produces clean and even sine waves into static 8 & 4 ohm loads! No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent! All functions test fine. Only cosmetic issues are minor, ie; a small ding in the upper, front edge of the wood case, and some minor scuffs on the sides (see above photos). The real vinyl wood veneer in great condition with no peeling. Following restoration procedures, the unit was operated continuously at medium volume, as all our amplifier / receivers are, into a load with ""Loudness"" on and both Tone Controls at 10 for 72 hours.
    
 While this unit was originally rated at 90 Wpc, on our test bench, this particular unit's (#A004) amplifiers produced peak power of xx  volts per channel at 8 ohms for 1xx watts per channel & xxvolts at 4 ohms for xxwatts per channel via discrete, TO-3, metal-cased output devices. (4x 2SD427 4x 2SB557). Bias current and DC offset set to spec. AC idle current measured at .35A. Floor noise measured at 00.6mVAC R & 00.2mVAC L.
