This auction features a highly regarded Nikko Gamma I FM Stereo Tuner from 1977 in need of repair. This tuner was tested and everything works and functions including stereo reception and wide/narrow settings but produces no audio. The FM Det and Multipath outputs do produce audio but not the main outputs. I dont know what the problem could be, maybe a resistor or bad capacitor in the output circuit, not sure. This tuner features a heavy and solid build with many of the features and performance found in tuners that sell for 3X as much. The Gamma I sold for $400 in 1977 which amounts to $2,000 in todays dollars with inflation which was far from cheap for a FM only tuner in those years. It features great FM sensitivity and selectivity with 5 tuning gangs, mosfet Wide and Narrow mode options. Cosmetics are very good. Theres the usual scratches on the top from stacking components but a relatively clean face. A great candidate for refurbishing and restoration. If you know how to fix electronics and you are in the market for a solid built tuner that offers great looks without braking the bank this auction is for you. Sold As Is for parts or repair only. Make this tuner yours with BIN before its gone. I pack and ship fast to ensure a positive shopping experience every time. Thank you for your business and have a great day!!

This auction features a great sounding and highly regarded Nikko Gamma I FM Stereo Tuner from 1977. This tuner features a heavy and solid build with many of the features and performance found in tuners that sell for 3X as much. The Gamma I sold for $400 in 1977 which amounts to $2,000 in todays dollars with inflation which was far from cheap for a FM only tuner in those years. What this tuner lacks in eye candy and glamour it more than makes up in performace. It features great FM sensitivity and selectivity with 5 tuning gangs, mosfet Wide and Narrow mode options and fixed/variable output control. The sound can best be described as delightfully smooth. It delivers great stereo imaging, thick bottom end and silky smooth highs. It rivals some of the best tuners I have owned ( and Ive owned many, including the famous Marantz 10B) and it does it at a very affordable price. The Gamma I is well regarded at FM tuner reviews and recommended by Leonard Feldman in a 1979 publication of Audio Feview Magazine. This tuner is is great working condition, all lamps, indicators, meters and switches are in good working order. The tuning capacitor and volume controls were cleaned for noise and static free performance. Cosmetics are very good. Theres the usual scratches on the top from stacking components but a relatively clean face with some minor nicks that were touched up for better presentation.
