That's a classic piece. A bit old, but classic. Maybe collectable.
Search for "integrated amp" and "optical". Let me know if you find
anything interesting. Good luck. Try Radio Shack again too.
Unfortunately, as I was explaining in previous message, that is not a
mass market category. Now it's a "high end" category. So while you
can find things like that, they are probably going to be very
expensive, like the Naim Supernait, for $4950. Musical Fidelity
makes one for only $1495.
If you want something cheapest, you'll probably have to settle for a
lot of extras, like FM tuning, that you didn't really want.
More is less, and less is more.
