JVC HR-7300 (c. 1982)
Little is documented about the JVC HR-7300. What the record shows comes from a few period equipment announcements. HiFi/Stereo (January 1982, p.18) listed specifications that suggest a cassette deck or integrated amplifier component: frequency response of 30 to 15,000 Hz ±3 dB, a signal-to-noise ratio of 65 dB, and wow and flutter at 0.06% (wrms). The same source gave dimensions as 16½ × 4⅞ × 10⅝ inches - a compact mid-fi chassis size typical of JVC's early-1980s component line.
A news item in High Fidelity (November 1982, p.9) mentioned a JVC model listed at $143. It is unclear whether that price belongs to the HR-7300 or a related unit. No service manual, user guide, or further review has surfaced in the Archive's holdings.
