Description from the seller
Magnificent piece of late-1970s Japanese audio engineering: the JVC JR-S300 stereo receiver. Known for its distinct industrial-style front panel with brushed aluminum, dark glass, illuminated meters, and horizontal slider controls, this model stands out both in look and sound.
Delivering a solid 50 watts per channel into 8 ohms with very low distortion, the JR-S300 offers warm, punchy, and detailed vintage audio. A standout feature is JVC’s proprietary S.E.A. (Sound Effect Amplifier) 5-band graphic equalizer, allowing precise sound tailoring without needing external tone controls.
Technical Condition:
Fully functional. Both channels output clean, balanced sound. FM tuning is sharp, controls/sliders move smoothly, and display backlighting works correctly with LEDs
Cosmetic Condition:
Good vintage condition with minor signs of wear appropriate for its age. Please review the photos carefully as they form an integral part of the lot description.
Production Period: 1976 – 1978
Power Output: 50 watts RMS per channel into 8Ω (20Hz–20kHz)
Tone Control: Built-in 5-band S.E.A. graphic equalizer
Tuner: AM/FM stereo with dual tuning / signal meters
Inputs: Phono (MM), Aux, Tape 1, Tape 2 (RCA)
Dimensions (W x H x D): 500 x 160 x 335 mm
Weight: 10.2 kg
