I was given one of these today when I bought a pair of Advent Loudspeakers. It doesn't seem like one of the top of the line receivers, very lightweight and mostly plastic on the front but it has the "old look". It was made in Taiwan, if that means anything. Anyway, any info on this unit such as specs would greatly be appreciated. Also, is it worth fixing up (lights are out and has a bit of static) or should I just relegate this to garage duty driving a pair of minimus 7s?

Ok, I finally figured it out with much searching of the web. This is apparently the same model as the MR215 and 1515 and it puts out 15 wpc. It doesn't command much money, maybe $30-50. I will probably do a thorough cleaning with compressed air and deoxit, I may even try and change the light bulbs, but as far as doing a full re-cap...I just don't think it's worth the cost.

It will be a nice garage receiver (radio only) driving some Minimus 7 I have been wanting to mount on the wall.
