I was handed this stereo after someone had removed it from the cabinet. I guess their plan was to repurpose the cabinet and scrap the head. I am hoping to resurrect this stereo for my test bench, just love the sound of these vintage stereos. Thanks Leroy

Welcome to the Phorum.  The stereo you have, Q1785PC, was from around the late 1960's.  I'm not too well versed with later console stereo systems, but I'm sure someone here will be able to help out.  Take care and BE HEALTHY!   Gary
