Rotel RA-2030 integrated amp

This is a made-in-Japan Rotel integrated amp from 1978. It s a very highly regarded component and far exceeds the performance and build quality of the numerous Marantz and Sansui units you see on this site that people go ga-ga for! With 80 watts 8 ohms) of power it will drive just about anything, it offers a full set of features and technology that was ahead of its time. It also has three (!) phono inputs, two Moving Magnet and one Moving coil. Check out this link provided above to get a very detailed description of this amp: stereonomono.blogspot(dot)ca/2011/08/rotel-ra-2030-1978(dot)html Bonus: this amp and it's companion RT-2000 tuner that is also for sale in another ad, have been sealed in their original boxes for over ten years! They are in excellent condition and the only mark (that I didn't even see until the flash of the camera exposed it), is a tiny nick on the faceplate of the amp that shows a little oxidization (thus the 7/10 instead of 8/10)...and this can be polished-out, if you even care. Both units sound excellent and I had a technician give the controls a thorough cleaning. He says that these units should be considered at the top of the scale as far as condition goes, and they are superior to all the vintage amps from that period he sees. $300.00 Add 3% for PayPal.
