The Mellotron Group

My 70's rig is a Technics SU-7700 integrated amp, Rotel turntable with
Stanton 881S cartridge and, don't laugh, Realistic Mach 1 speakers.
Used to work at Radio Shack.

 

Everything still works.  Added a CD player when they were invented.

My receiver of choice in the '70s was an Onkyo TX-2500 amp/receiver.
It's the only DC-coupled amp that I know of. I could push it full volume
through my JBL 4311's without distortion. The Onkyo lasted about 25
years and was replaced a few years ago by an Onkyo TX-8511. I don't
think it's DC-coupled though. The JBL's are still going strong. Both are
what my M400 goes through.
