Tube Color Sharp

[Spinning Head]

Picked up these older Sharp set at an estate sale a couple of weeks ago. There was some sort of connection problem with the line cord interlock, as there was infinite resistance at the plug end. But after removing the back and taking the cord off of the back and plugging directly into the chassis, the problem went away. Powered it up slow with a variac and eventually got to full line voltage with no major issues. Fairly clean set, I don't think it got a lot of use. I was concerned that it would use a lot of strange Japanese tubes, but they all look common for a series string set; 5GH8A, etc.
