This vintage JVC 4VR-5414 is a high-quality quadraphonic receiver manufactured in Japan between 1971-1974. Featuring a robust output and advanced 4-channel capabilities, it represents the cutting edge of 1970s audio technology.
Key features include:
4-channel amplification with 15W per channel into 8Ω (60W total)
Built-in FM/AM tuner
5-band graphic equalizer for precise sound customization
Simulated Four Channel System (SFCS) for converting 2-channel sources to 4-channel
Multiple inputs for phono, tape, and auxiliary sources
Optional wired remote control for volume and balance
The 4VR-5414 delivers impressive audio performance with a wide 15Hz-50kHz frequency response, low 0.5% total harmonic distortion, and high 75dB signal-to-noise ratio. Its quadraphonic design creates an immersive surround sound experience from both 2-channel and 4-channel sources.
Housed in an attractive walnut wood cabinet, this receiver features a sleek black faceplate with intuitive controls. At 27.8 lbs, it has a solid, well-built feel befitting its high-end status.
Dimensions: 492 x 149 x 365 mm (19.4 x 5.9 x 14.4 inches) Weight: 12.7 kg (27.8 lbs)
This vintage JVC quadraphonic receiver offers a unique piece of audio history combined with excellent sound quality. Its 4-channel capabilities and built-in equalizer make it a versatile centerpiece for any retro hi-fi system.
We hand-polished the Walnut cabinet with Howard Beeswax & Orange Oil based Feed-N-Wax, until it reached a warm luster. Pots have been de-oxidized and this vintage JVC looks great, and sounds even better.
Asking $595 for this beautiful and distinctive early 1970’s JVC 4VR-5414, made in Japan.

Pioneer SX-50 Silver Face Receiver – 50 WPC, Pre-Outs, 1983
Fifty watts a channel into 8 ohms at 0.007% distortion, and — unusually for a receiver this size — pre-out and main-in jacks on the back, so it can feed a subwoofer, take an equalizer in the loop, or hand off to a larger power amp. Introduced in 1983 with switchable CD and TV audio inputs, presets held by three AA cells, and the silver face of the decade that was ending. Graded Very Good.
