Remarks
- With the 3030 Laboratory Series, JVC showed in Europe in 1978 what was "state of the art".
- High quality design, excellent characteristics and on the accompanying preamplifier 3!!! Connections for turntables.
The only small drop of bitterness is the missing headphone connection. Interesting was also the possibility to use 3 identical power amplifiers via a crossover. However, this procedure seems to have never prevailed, especially in Europe.
