The unit I picked up is in two nice cabinets.

The Main unit is a Model C-1706 with Garrard Changer, FA-540 Tuner(no tubes)
and it had at one time a SA-232 Amp.

Someone  had pulled the Amp two owners back.

Would like to know the ratings of the speakers.

The second cabinet is a Model S-170/171 Ensemble Series Spkr. Sys.

Will probably be putting the Tuner and Changer on that E**** place soon.

The cabinets are certainly well made.
