RARE Vintage Onkyo TX 8500mkII AM/FM Stereo Receiver- WORKS GREAT : $625.00
RARE Vintage Onkyo TX 8500mkII AM/FM Stereo Receiver as shown. Onkyo's TOTL receiver and contestant in the "Receiver Wars" from 1978-1981. 180 Watts Per Channel. Very nice condition. A few nicks and scratches as shown in the pictures, but nothing that detracts from the overall EXCELLENT appearance of this receiver! I've had it about 8 years. It was missing one stainless button cover on the front panel and it took me 5 years to find a matching one. From a smoke and pet free home. GREAT sound! Rare in that it has a standard vernier tuning display, but also a digital display and seven station presets. Quartz-locked tuning. I tested the DC offset a few years ago which is a good indication of receiver health and it was well within spec. I also cleaned all the controls and knobs with spray electronics cleaner when I acquired it.Now for a few minor issues. When I acquired it, several function lamps were out. I didn't have the correct lamps, so the ones I used weren't quite as bright as the originals. I'm sure correct ones could still be sourced. I've never seen the "Locked" or "Tuned" lamps illuminate, but I think it's because of the crummy reception in my geographic area. I do not have the original box or manuals. This receiver is HEAVY, weighing in at 61 lbs., but I will pack and ship it very carefully. I've been shipping vintage audio for 15 years with very few problems. I'm offering this one with !SHIPPING RATE OF $85.00 IS FOR USA ONLY. I WILL SHIP OVERSEAS FOR ADDITIONAL COST.
