[urq] Mid 80's, period correct radios: which one ?

[Max Wellhouse]

Yeah, I had a set of  NAK SP-400 speakers in my 79 VW bus driven by a 
smallish amp and a sony full logic tape unit. Back then it was the 
bomb.  Occasionally you see old NAK stuff on ebay, but don't know of 
any dedicated NAK mail lists or websites.

   I'll bet they're out there though.
