General:
Around 1960/1962 issued solid-state stereo amplifier for USA markets made in Japan for LRE.
This particular amp was initially bought in the UK as international version, uncommon in the USA.

Schematic:
Power rail main Voltage is -40 Volt asymetric, the power transformer has both 117V and 230V~ connections:
consequently due to the detrimental power change to 230V in Europe the voltage of the power rail is ok on 230V setting.
Power supply
+
is connected to ground.
OTL and DTL class B push-pull power amp section.
Early direct DC coupled power amp section with early Germanium driver transistors: Toshiba 2SB200 and 2SD100,
pre-driver: 2SB56. Complementary driver stage, semi-complementary power stage. The pre-amp is AC coupled.
All Toshiba & Matsusita germanium transistors inside.
This amplifier has a "power transistor protection" circuit on the power-rail pcb.
The "power transistor protection" circuit works great, it stops the power amps from amplification of the signal actively,
when the amp is over its power capabilities. If it protects the power transistors probably, but not in all situations obviously,
as there are many causes that can destroy the amps final transistors, overdriving the amp is only one.
Great product made in Japan, this amp will play fine again for many years to come.
Sound:
The sound is very good: powerful and distortionless for such a small and early 2x 10 Watts RMS transistor amplifier.
