Sony TA 5650 VFET Stereo Amplifier. Great vintage amp. Working order.VFET amp design was well regarded in it's day.The amp works well and sounds great.It does crackle a bit on some switches, but with a little contact cleaner should be okay.The silver finish needs a little polishing too.A few small marks here and there, but nothing too serious.I think the on/off switch should light up, probably needs a bulb.
DescriptionThe Sony TA-5650 is rated at 50 watts minimum RMS per channe...l with an 8-ohm load from 20-20, 000Hz and may deliver an instantaneous peak power much greater than the rated power.The unit features dual phono inputs (with supplied shorting plugs when not in use) and two tape loops for simultaneous recording or direct tape duplication. The TA-5650 can also be divided into separate units, pre-amplifier and power amplifier, to connect to other add-on components. Finally, two pairs of EXT adaptor jacks are provided (one on the front panel and one on the rear) for use with a graphic equalizer, speaker equalizer, SQ adaptor (for quadraphonic sound) or a third tape recorder.SpecificationsPower output: 50 watts per channel into 8Ω (stereo)Frequency response: 10Hz to 100kHzTotal harmonic distortion: 0.05%Damping factor: 50Input sensitivity: 2.5mV (MM), 150mV (line)Signal to noise ratio: 70dB (MM), 90dB (line)Output: 150mV (line), 17mV (DIN), 1V (Pre out)Speaker load impedance: 4Ω to 16ΩSemiconductors: 10 x VFET, 9 x FET, 42 x transistors, 31 x diodes Dimensions: 460 x 168 x 323mmWeight: 14.1kgYear: 1975On 23-Jun-19 at 19:13:31 BST, seller added the following information:There is some light corrosion on the top metal part of the casing.
