Sleeper Vintage Receivers, AMps, Tuners, TTs,etc..

Not sure if its a "sleeper" but I have a Tandberg 1055 that I bought a few years back and had it totally overhauled 5 years ago., despite the fact that it was still fully functioning (except the phono stage).Looks almost brand new some 46 years later. Its not in my main system, but it's the piece of equipment that the nearest and dearest to me.  Love the simple Norwegian style.The Tuner section is to die for but seldom used these days. 
    Was looking for a McIntosh 5100 like I grew up on but just couldn't resist this little Scandanavian beauty. Sounds great and built like a tank.
     
     

Tandberg for sure. The Onkyo A-5 and up series ( the A-5 was class A up to 5 watts ) and as mentioned the ADS Atilier 

Thankfully there have been many good receivers.  The best I have owned is the Magnum Dynalab 208

JVC turntables for the Japanese and European markets were called Victor. The high end offerings were some of the best DD turntables ever made. They also made their own tonearms that are highly coveted today as well.
Victor was an engineering company, they invented the quartz locked direct drive motor. They also supplied other TT companies like Micro Seiki. Technics was free to use Victors technology as they were owned by the same parent company.
So in the States, hi end JVC TT can be very good and elsewhere look for the Victor brand.
