Sherwood CRD-175 (1987)

Documentation on the Sherwood CRD-175 is thin. What we know comes almost entirely from a single new-products listing in HiFI-Stereo (March 1987, p.124), which calls it an in-dash AM/FM cassette receiver for car use. It put out 6 watts per channel minimum RMS into 4 ohms, with less than 10% total harmonic distortion at 1 kHz. That is modest power, but normal for its era and form factor.

The CRD-175 had line inputs for a portable CD player, plus a preamplifier output to feed a more powerful external amplifier. The tuner section did preset station scanning at the touch of a button. It supported metal tape, and the tuner specs included 50 dB quieting at 46.8 dBf, selectivity of 65 dB. Beyond that listing, little else has surfaced - no service manual, no owner reviews, and no reliable production run or price information.
