Technics SA-5000 (Year Unknown)
Not much is documented about the Technics SA-5000. The Archive has one period sighting: a receivers directory page in HiFI-Stereo (1982, p.52) covering the Technics lineup of that era, with the SA-3500 named on the same page. The SA-5000 appears to have been a stereo receiver from Technics' early-1980s line. The surviving scan of that directory page is badly degraded, though, so the figures printed beside its entry can't be read with confidence. Fragments in the damaged text (sensitivity in the region of 16.2 dBf mono, dimensions around 4.6"H x 17.7"W x 14.6"D, list prices near $380 - $399) may belong to the SA-5000 or to adjacent models. The OCR doesn't let us say for certain.
Confirmed production years, power output, and pricing are not established in any material the Archive holds. A brochure, service manual, or clean review copy of the SA-5000 would settle it.
