Sherwood S-7310 Stereo/Dynaquad Receiver

This little guy will rock the house! I love these Sherwood receivers. They are not too big, won't break the bank, are really well built and punch like a heavyweight! 38 watts RMS continuous with really punchy bass and bright highs.

Made in the USA folks... back when we made quality electronics in our own backyard. All the pots have been thoroughly cleaned and run silky smooth with no snap, crackle or pop. Replaced the dial pointer light and FM indicator bulb. This one had the infamous power switch issue... fixed and working flawlessly. I've restored/repaired a number of Sherwood receivers and have a solid fix that should not fail.

No rust, no dust... this baby is clean!

Oh yeah... Dynaquad. The Sherwoods from this era feature David Hafler’s passive Dynaquad matrix system, which uses a four-speaker setup to synthesize a pseudo-quadraphonic surround effect from ordinary two-channel stereo sources without needing a discrete 4-channel amplifier. Of course you can run it in straight stereo mode but this is a cool feature if you want to set up a 4 speaker room.

Most users note that the Sherwood S-7310 offers an underrated, warm "old school" sound with powerful bass and clear highs reminiscent of vintage tube amplifiers. I like it so much I'll be using it for bench testing turntables until someone steals it from me.
