While visiting my dad today he asked me to see if i could sort out his old receiver - I remember us getting it when I was a little kid. It is a Supersonic One-Eleven. I haven't found many references to it on the internet - I suspect that it was badge engineered and assembled in South Africa.
I hooked it up, and it sort of works a bit, but lots of hum, noise, scratching of pots and I think maybe motorboating - certainly some sort of low-frequency oscillation any way.
Opened up:
Surprisingly clean inside! So I cleaned it up cosmetically - will see if I get round to the electronics at some point, and sand & varnish the cabinet. Cleaned up:
There was a turntable that came with it but he's not sure where it is. It is a Garrard AP75. The plinth was wood, and it had a lid with clear blue plastic.
