Akai AA-R32, 1985 45WPC. What a good looking unit and VFD! After recently purchasing the AA-V301 (posted last week) I needed to get another.
Great light show, sound, and design. Not all people like receivers without knobs, but it’s fine with me!
eBay purchase from original owner. Opened it up and put it right back together as it’s clean. Very well cared for, and double box shipped - this rarely happens, so no claim to return needed!
I’ve got my eye out for the 80 watts per channel variant of this (has additional features as well). Doesn’t look like Akai made anything very high powered during this era.
Flickering is the effect of the camera not the receiver Under normal conditions.
