Harman Kardon 330C stereo receiver, built circa 1972–1974, in good physical condition and tested and functional.
Description from the seller
This Harman Kardon 330C stereo receiver is offered for sale, a beloved model from the early 1970s and known for its warm sound, solid build quality, and timeless design. The 330C belongs to Harman Kardon's classic line in which simplicity, musicality, and reliability were central.
The Harman Kardon 330C is known as one of the most musical compact receivers of its era. Not powerful, but a very pleasant and natural sound reproduction that pairs excellently with vintage speakers from brands such as JBL, Wharfedale, KEF, or Celestion.
Due to its classic appearance and reliability, this model is loved by both listeners and collectors of vintage audio.
This unit is fully functional: all functions operate correctly, both via the tuner and via the inputs.
The lighting has been completely replaced recently, causing the scale and meters to illuminate beautifully and clearly again as intended.
One point to note: The signal/tuning meter needs to be checked; it appears to be stuck.
Furthermore, the device is in neat, original condition, with normal light signs of use appropriate to its age.
