Denon PM 520 and Nikko analog tuner

[impala454]

A guy in my neighborhood is selling a Denon PM 520 and Nikko analog tuner for $100 (total). Are these decent components? He says they're 35 years old but when I search on the Denon it seems newer. Thoughts?

can you audition for a few a few days?
it will not have much power, so expect distortion at higher volumes.
let your ears be the judge.

but for $100, if it meets your needs....why not?

I don't necessarily have a "need" just was curious if it was that old if it was worth something. No biggie. I know some folks here like to restore old equipment. The guy actually ended up giving them away for free and someone else nabbed em.
