Wow! Like I don't already have 100 stereo receiver amplifiers, right? So one more couldn't hurt, right? Well, what the hell...the SA-626 was a top of the mid-line offering from Technics, Panasonic's high end unit. It sold for $580 in 1981, and at 65 watts, it was a real gem with a superb tuner. It was sold non-working for the grand sum of $25. Simple short on the circuit board...nice clean fix. An hour later she was singing like a jibster in heat!
