Rega is pronounced ‘reeger’, lovely looking turntable

There is a bulb burned out on the tuning dial at the bottom so that the scale can be lit evenly.

How does the carousel come off & where do I grease it?

Hello I could use your help. I picked up an 8-track changer today & the carousel is not working entirely. It plays though & cleaned up nicely! I tried to send a message on that post but it wouldn’t let me.

Had one. Housesitter broke it. Bad, bad housesitter!

Nice would been nice to see it with some lights on in the room and see the back of the receiver maybe the inside as well.

Looks like a kenwood receiver I had in the past. Great times😊

I used to be a Pioneer guy but that Sansui is a beauty.

is it for sale and how much thank you

are you selling? how much?

That's a blast from the past. I had one back in the '70's and it would smoke every tower speaker on the market back then 😂 it was user error, was difficult to control the volume at parties

Can I test my with optional speaker so U know its work?

Looks very nice for its age. What are you asking for it?

No autollift or autoreturn?

Do you know how much approximately cost for this condition?

This beaut would bring $800 today

Ever sell it ?

Sensacional.caixa maravilhosa!!!

Should have included a link.

I'm sure if I have to ask, I can't afford it.

Very nice piece. I currently run a magnavox. But do have a marantz reciever that needs tlc that this would go well with. Awesome.

Good

Hey what are the sound output requirements for this model?

Ok ok you ask to much!!!!!!!!!! i'm buying from other site with less....

i am with Akai reels..pleas can you right me ?.at least the ebay site

Why didn't you say what speeds it has?

I had one of these in college. Walls were damaged.

I have always enjoyed Radio Shack Realistic AM/FM Stereo Receivers!

I sold these at Tandi in Holland when I was 19 years old. The quality was excellent, and I always suspected they were rebranded Japanese products. Tandi also sold verry low-quality stereo systems, making it challenging to convince customers to choose Realistic over well-known Japanese brands.

*Had the same unit in the 70's pushing 2 (powered crosover) Electrostatic 2a's and 2 MC 1000's, neighbors just loved us LOL!!!!. The Magic Tune does fail in most but it's a simple fix*

piece of crap!!!!

I just realized this is the one i got for my Dad for the den and hooked up speakers outside for the porch and it he was so happy to be able to listen to music in the den and porch. Those days are long gone.

My first realistic stereo was the sta-77-a and it sounded great. I think i got it in 1975or 76

I love that this was randomly recommended to me

GLWS!

Nice unit indeed !!, I'm still using mine ,I purchased it in 1982 in Japan ,i have everything that came with it as well and is in mint condition, not a scratch. The only reason im using it now is that my DP-45 from same year started spinning backward. One day, it too was in great condition, and now its back in the box, awaiting an uncertain future. I would like it serviced.

Very nice Realistic. Never really looked at that model but I do like it.

That's sweet. I haven't seen one of those in ages. I love good turntable.

Nice turntable. I purchased one of them when I was stationed in Japan back in the mid 80's. I had the same Shure cartridge and also a Concorde. That turntable never failed me but I went all digital years ago and sold it.

The 5550 was my first piece of hifi gear, bought in 1971. Like all units of that era, they were built like the proverbial tank. I still have the original manual but traded the receiver in for separates in 1978.

What is your eBay seller name?

Hello this or the heathkit Ar 1302 has better sound for jazz, classic music.. Thanks

Looks exactly like one Ibought new in the '70s from Radio Shack that's still up in the attic someplace.

Looks great!

Très bonne restitution en quadriphonie , j'ai depuis 10 ans un 4400 associé à un démodulateur CD4 PANASONIC et cellule à jauge de contrainte epc4500-II !!! Une merveille !!!!

Hi, I have the same tester but I do not have the instruction manual and I do not know how to set-up the device. Please can you send me the PDF format of ypour manual? Regards

What's the deal with the meters not lining up ?

I have this unit since 1975 , still works great an it just looks classic vintage , a lot of memories around this unit like when the DJ talked with a low voice an then a Pink Floyd song or two would fade in!!!

Looks mint considering its age 👍🏻

Great vintage receiver 👍🏻
