It's an AMP/Tuner. You'd plug a record player and tape deck, 8 trak etc into it.

I got it off an ex, it was her uncle's, he was a sound engineer at the BBC so had all the good stuff!

M'lady's Sony TV is about 10 years old...

Something I bought second-hand, a Bush record player (£10 from Greenwich Market, 7 or 8 years ago), looks like it was made in the 80s but I don't get to use it often :cry:

My oldest electronic appliance is a 1966 Westinghouse "Multimatic" black and white TV with tubes. It uses banana connectors and works perfectly!

Wow I recall having to choose between betamax and VHS ....

We were in a shop and I'd narrowed my choice of VHS ones down to THREE and then the guy said that they were all the same machine that were branded by three companies or something - so I had to chose on looks alone .. I think all three were made by JVC but they'd farmed the innards out to other companies who completely changed the outside looks of the machine ..


Could it have been JVC / Toshba / Sharp or similar ??

Could have been, Panasonic were another Japanese company quick to adopt VHS.
