    I can upload some pictures as well, but here’s a YouTube video of my unpackaging.

    Cheers!

    Another clone, I wonder if Auto has one?

    I had two Wintec Receivers at one time, the little ones, I think they were the 1030's? I don't sell much equipment but those were sold off, I actually told the guy buying the one, that he had to take both. The larger Wintec Receiver is collectable but they have a dated 1970's looking face. Nowadays "Wintech" is pushing out small audio products, I have no idea if they are related.

    My guess is not related. Spelled differently. “They” say the original Wintec was a short lived California corporation. Roughly 1976 to 1979. When they folded the major investors fire sales the inventory. Extremely limited documentation. Will be fun to open it up!

    Look over on Audio Karma, I know we were talking about them 20 years ago but yea, very little documentation. Most people don't know that there were a ton of smaller companies trying to get into the audio market in the late 70's. Most were buying pre-made from established manufacturers or buying individual components and assembling them in their own space.
