    Korting from 1980, never heard of this brand before but these look interesting! I bet it looks impressive with all of the lights on. Is this made in Austria or Germany?

    AKAI 1980, Just Audio did a small history lesson on YouTube recently, they had a R2R remote that went across the street and still worked. This must have been a very early remote for a stereo system! The AIWA System had a compo unit that received the signals, I don't know if this one does.

    Blaupunkt from 1979, most of these look pretty basic, they really upgraded the looks after this.

    Denon seemed to come out of nowhere and went on to world domination with their mini-stereos, from 1992, was this their first?

    Sorry, I can't read this but it looks like it transmits back to the main amp? Kind of cool but now we have remotes!

    I wonder if Brian May got a free stereo out of this back in 1990 ? What else did he get paid? 2/3rd of the advert was just a silhouette of his head.

    Just when you thought it was safe, the JVC MX-GT90 from 2001 comes a calling, with Nikki Sixx no less pushing it!

    AIWA from 1983, it's interesting that they advertise the GE-80 as a stand-alone EQ.
