Sylvania CR-2742
Almost nothing is documented about the Sylvania CR-2742.
The period record does show that Sylvania was pushing its audio components hard at the time. HiFI-Stereo (December 1972, p.22) ran a Sylvania ad arguing that the company, not the more familiar names in stereo, gave buyers the most for their money. A later Sylvania receiver listing in the same publication, the STR-6036A, carried an IHF FM sensitivity of 2.8 µV, 35 dB stereo separation, and a $149.95 price (HiFI-Stereo 1975, p.52). That is a different model, though, and it tells us nothing certain about the CR-2742.
Beyond that, the CR-2742 appears to have left little trace. No specifications, prices, or owner documentation have surfaced.
