beautiful, classic Realistic STA-960 Stereo Receiver. Sold originally by Tandy in 1981, this is an absolute "giant-killer" of an amplifier that holds its own sonically against more expensive Pioneer or Marantz gear from the same era. [1] (https://www.ecoustics.com/articles/realistic-vintage-audio/), (https://reverb.com/item/53271528-realistic-sta-960-1981) It delivers an incredibly clean, warm 50 watts per channel into 8 ohms with deep bass and great musicality.

Stunning analog signal/tuning meters with a gorgeous warm glow, real wood veneer casing, and solid metal knobs. Dedicated Phono stage (perfect for record players/turntables), Aux, and 2x Tape Monitor loops. Supports running two pairs of speakers (Speaker A/B).
