Sherwood ST-801 (circa 1981)
Not much is documented about the Sherwood ST-801. The only period record in the Archive's files is an equipment listing in High Fidelity (1981, p.185). It calls the ST-801 a fully automatic turntable priced at $240. The same entry notes a straight, low-mass tonearm with removable headshell, antiskating, and low-capacitance phono cables.
No production years, no manual, and no independent review have surfaced. It is unclear whether the ST-801 was a short-run model or simply one that escaped the usual paper trail.
What the listing shows:
- Type: Fully automatic turntable
- Price: $240
- Tonearm: Straight, low-mass; removable headshell; antiskating
- Cables: Low-capacitance phono cables
- Dimensions: approximately 17 5/16 × 5 15/16 inches (W × D)
If you own an ST-801 or have a manual, the Archive would welcome the details.
