A new one on me: REL "Green Giant"

I like most normal :-) vintage hi-fi/radio enthusiasts, would love to have a REL Precedent. Not likely to ever happen...



At another popular web-based hi-fi forum, mention was made the other day of another REL "statement" radio project, referred to at the "Green Giant". After Googling unsuccessfully, I asked the poster about this beast, unknown to me. He indicated that it was an earlier REL product, a full receiver (rather than just a tuner); somewhat less well known than the Precedent. Armed with this new information, I found a photo.



As soon as I saw it, I was wondering whether Sandy G. has one of these? :-)

I believe it's in the dashboard of that Continental...

There are at least two versions of that, one that does both the early and late FM bands, and one that does only the late band.

Some also have a metal cabinet. This one looks like rackmount.
