Best stereo recievers of the 1970's?

sugarbrie mentioned the tuner section on those old onkyo receivers and i will second that. i have an onkyo tx-2500 circa 77/78 that locks in on stations with their servo-lock feature. beat some of the cheap dedicated tuners i have owned. oh, and the sound quality was excellent. this was a mid-line model with only 30 watts a channel, but boy can it pack a punch. better sound than a marantz 2235b i have.

Oh yes, the HK 330c was a very nice piece of gear. That with a set of Infinity RS speakers was the deal.

Sony STR's 7065,and others in that line

The Sansui 771 was 30 or 40 wpc of pure bliss. I owned a more expensive and powerful Yamaha later...it sounded to sterile. The tuner in the Sansui was excellent.

The Marantz 19 is at the top of my list of best receivers of the 70's.
