'73 Packard Bell Entertainment Center

I got this one for my Mother. As far as I can tell it's the only unit of this style ever marketed by PB. 1973 model RPTS155 with a walnut cabinet. AM/FM stereo with a V-M 2100 mini-changer and cassette recorder. The middle was sized to accept a 19" PB television of the day. I picked this 1971 C96346 which was Japanese produced. All of this was unsold new stock and works perfectly. I know the receiver is a low-end set but it actually sounds very nice.

Are the speakers built-in?

I remember seeing one of these recently at a yard sale. It was not Packard-Bell branded, though. This one looks brand new. Where does one go to find NOS stereo equipment?

The speakers are built into the bottom and face the sides. It actually sounds pretty nice.
