I even forgot how those two sound, been too long.  Anyway, I paid most attention to the big amps.  I loved power when I was young, hehe..Had a chance to listen both JBL Olympus and Paragon in the 70s, nice speakers. The son is 80 watt/channel and grandson is about 40, right?

Yes.The sound was a lot more of the Class A type,claimed to be so by many manufacturers at that time.I had
even bought a Panasonic class A amp.(40W/ch),? Model M22, when I traveled to Japan,but found the sound
cold and dry and inferior to the Grandson.

Panasonic? Do you mean Technics? Never recalled they got class A amp, since it was never popular in the US.   Never had anything by National/Panasonic/Technics before but they make good stuff, like TT...Almost bought the Sp10MKII, but opt. for the Denon instead.

I once owned a SP10 mark II TT,with a thick acrylic base .However it was difficult to get a decent cover.The
arm, a carbon fiber Black Widow with a Sonus Blue cartridge was snapped and broken by my 2 years old son.
Then I had to sell it for security ! The sound was quite good then.

Infinite Black Window? I had that too ! Had that mounted on a tri-tone arm TT, along with the J.H. Formula 4 MKII or MKIII, Lol..and SME 3009 S3, but sold it later, and opt for a higher mess Grace teak-wood tone arm for MC..hehe. Always like one point support, oil damped arms but harder to adjust lol..Bearing arms kinda sux, even knife edge ones like SME and Black Widow..
