Reviewed Jul 18th, by badvinyl. Highly underated receiver! I have recently had mine fully serviced top to bottom, along with my STA They are both now my forever receivers. The STA is in the setup in the living room. Should go another 20 - 25 years worry free. Excellent build quality.

Realistic sta 2000

As you may know, Realistic was the house brand of Radio Shack and was meant to compete with Pioneer, Kenwood, Sansui and other receivers at the time. Most of the Realistic receivers are well built and perform very well. Price wise they were very competitive with the other audio brands at the time. The styling of the STA is very nice and is reminiscent of the Pioneer models of the same era. The wood panels are walnut veneer which matches nicely with the silver face. As you can see it has a very large flywheel tuning knob and the other knobs and buttons are nicely laid out. It has dual calibrated power meters that show actual power output to the speakers as well as a dual function meter that shows both FM center tuning and AM signal strength. The unit really looks nice lit up. Many feel that the D is not as good sounding as the The lower left push button in the set of 8 buttons on the front of the receiver is a 20db volume attenuator on the STA but was changed to a Dolby button on the STAD. Realistic also added a small green light to the panel to indicate whether Dolby was activated or not. Realistic receivers have been slowly increasing in value as more and more people realize that their performance is very good. Some feel that the STA is a little heavy on the bass.

I have an STA non D and it takes a lot of effort to turn.

Rated at 75 wpc RMS, and used a 4 gang front end instead of the 5 gang type used by similar Pioneer models.

A rare and excellent 70s Stereo , sounds and built comparable to Pioneer during that era. Thank you! Courtesy HiFi Engine. Ed, respectfully you are wrong. Or you could go with a pair of Mach 1 s which are a kickass speaker with a 15 inch woofer. Then came the STAD which was almost the same, but different! Damage Super Member. If you take the cover off of the receiver after unplugging it you can see the pots for each knob. Lots of fire damage on the driver and baffles. Great memories Lot of people there that know which bulbs to use in which receivers. Cancel reply. Your second story is an absolute classic. Do you listen to rock, jazz or classical?

Tandy was certainly big enough by this point that they could have either purchased an OEM and called it Tandy or built their own factory from scratch. Continue reading. They both sound very good. I would also recommend picking up a wire crimping set, it is a lot safer than trying to solder something inside your receiver. Fascinating stuff and thank you very much for the insight! Hi Norman, thanks so much for stopping by and for commenting. Optimus T loud speakers. The right has been refoamed. I worked with Tandy for years. Price wise they were very competitive with the other audio brands at the time. Cancel reply. Realistic receivers have been slowly increasing in value as more and more people realize that their performance is very good. Maybe find a non-working STA to use for parts.
