Default Steepletone Edinburgh retro music centre, post 2010

Even the model name reflects the era of these being pieces of furniture.
Quite a tasteful bit of cabinet with convincing looking faux bronze
"metalwork". Inside basically repackaged ghetto-blaster, 350 GBP for these .
The main analogue board would normally be a reject at pcb etching stage as
about 20 breaks in tracks due to excess etching . Factory re-work
hand-bridged with wires soldered over the breaks. Probably failure of one of
those fudges at a pass transistor pad ,meant loss of all audio out, not hifi
in any way though
