Vintage Pilot Audio Stereo Console

Description

Hello,

 

I mother in law gave me a Pilot Radio 30W25 "Oslo" console that includes a Garrard model 50 turntable, Pilot 30 W receiver and speakers.  I have replaced the electrolytic capacitors to bring it back into operating condition, but otherwise everything is original.  It is fully functional and sounds great.  It has all of the orignal documentation including purchase and order receipts, manuals and service manual.

I am interested in getting an idea of the value of this system.  I have not been able to find another example of this model.

Thanks.

History
My mother-in-law was given this by the original owner who live in the same elderly / disabled housing unit as her. It did not function and she knew that I design and repair electronics so she gave it to me. Upon getting into the workshop I found that most of the electrolytic capacitors had failed due to age. I've only replaced the electrolytic capacitors.
