I remember walking in to my local Hi Fi shop and looking at the line ups of recievers.Pioneer,,Jvc,Sansui,Kenwood,Luxman.I loved the Sansui 9090 db but when I heard the Luxman (don't remember the model number) in the late 70's it was the best I've ever heard at the time. Mike
I second the Pioneer unit. Remarkable piece of machinery! Sansui had also nice models with FETs at the front-end. Those were the funny times of "specs war".
For refined sound for not a lot of money, my vote is for Harmon Kardon. That said, I actually owned Onkyo gear back then. I liked their very good FM Tuner section.
