Sherwood S-8000

 With every performance capability of a separate tuner and amplifier, Sherwood's "new" S-8000 FM Stereo Multiplex Receiver is rapidly becoming one of the industry's most popular high-fidelity components.

This unit contains all of the electronics for a complete home music system on a single compact chassis. The S-8000 features two 32-watt amplifiers, complete with dual preamplifiers for phono and tape plus a highly sensitive FM tuner with complete wired-in circuitry for receiving FCC-approved FM multiplexed stereocasts. Just add speakers to complete your stereo home hi-fi music system.

  

The Model S-8000 integrates in one unit all of the important controls and perormance features offered separately on any of Sherwood's FM tuners, stereo amplifiers, and FM multiplex adapters. The usual concern about heat dissipation from a complex unit of this type has been solved by Sherwood design engineers. In the S-8000, the unique new Novar output tubes have been tilted toward the rear of the chassis so that tube heat is deflected away from other components by Sherwood's exclusive air-cooled heat baffle.
