OK i got the receiver ................
P1000391

P1000393

It was still there so i picked it up and headed to the counter..."how much" i asked "Five smackers" Dan replied....."you got yourself a deal".....i left the shop with my prize....

The Sony STR AV470 was only sold in Canada and Australia because of legal challenges to Sonys multi standard AM Stereo chip, so i guess they had a pretty small market.....

All push button.....not a real volume knob to be seen...........but packed with high end features and seems to work fine........

I have just remembered what it reminds me of.....a Sony Betamax VCR i had, the colors and the buttons were just the same !!!

Now for some speakers...................

Tomorrow i need to bag some speakers.........they have a set of 1970's Celestion "County" 2 way bookshelf speakers (made in England !)

One is a bit water damaged so i will offer them $2 for the pair......

It is unusual for the guy to be serving in the shop as he is the co ordinator for the whole network of shops, they must have been short of staff, he normaly asks quite high prices so i was quite surprised at $5 !!
