Yamaha CR-1020
(1977 - 1979)

Hopelessly classy.
No, let me rephr
ase this: the CR-1020 has CLASS.
And just like any other late 70s Japanese component, it'll be on your grand-children's shelves, making music just like way back then, when most of the human race wore
flared trousers, dreamy-eyed listened to Pink Floyd's Animals and/or mourned Elvis' death and/or still heard echoes of Janis' performance at the Monterey but felt it was somehow fading away.

Alas, all good things have an end and the 1020 was replaced by the classy CR-1040 in 1979. By which time disco was all the rage.
