I do not know the unit so would not label it as such but it is loaded and it looks like sealed modules. It may be excellent in sound and reliability overall. Every maker can have a unit slip through.
I have found that excellent units need not be component heavy or complex. Companies like EICO, Dynaco, and Sherwood taught me that. Muntz found that after the engineers were done he could go in and rip out a number of parts before compromising performance. Today his name is also a verb meaning this process.
