JVC 3060 from 1977, this would have been every kid's dream machine back then.

 

From 1981, I had no idea the Fisher was that expensive but when you compare it with it's cutting edge design against the older model it probably appealed more to the older folks that just wanted a small stereo.

 

Some JVC, Sharp and AIWA Heavyweights from 1981, yep they were big money back then. Minimum wage was around $3.35/hour........

It just seems really huge for 1983 but I like the way it looks!

 

A rare Wollensak 4515 (3M) from 1973, I think Wollensak worked with AKAI, Sanyo and a few others, I love the round dials on the front, I have a radio only unit that's very similar.

 

From 1983, check out the top headline! This is in USD, the Sony 10 seems like a great price, I don't remember them that inexpensive. Now I have to look at my AIWAs, I didn't realize there were two versions of the HS-J02.
