AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Nice JVC receiver with built-in equalizer. The unit is in exceptionally good cosmetic condition and is also technically in top condition. All necessary maintenance has been performed and the receiver is ready for many years of listening pleasure.

The unit has ample connection options, and the speaker terminals are of high quality. There is a good phono input, an aux input for, for example, a CD player or a Bluetooth adapter for streaming audio, and tape inputs for a cassette or tape recorder. The rear side is also in near-new condition.

As an interesting detail I would like to mention that the FM tuning scale indicator changes from white illumination to red when the transmitter is perfectly tuned. (See photos 2 and 3)

I also include a balun as an extra to enable connecting a coaxial antenna.

Power output: 22 watts per channel into 8Ω (stereo)

Frequency response: 20Hz to 30kHz
