Bush DAC34

Bush DAC34 radio. Walnut cabinet with a gold speaker grille above a black tuning scale and four cream knobs along the bottomThis is a lovely radio and it really does look and sound nice. The speaker is large and the bass response is quite amazing and very pleasant to listen to. I like this particular model because it’s easy to work on with plenty of room beneath the chassis.
