Some other Sony gear from the 1988 Stereo Review Buying Guide:
Sony TA-E77ESD Preamplifier. . . $1,100
Sony TA-F700ES Integrated Amplifier . . .$700
Sony TA-F500ES Integrated Amplifier . . . $500
Sony ST-S700ES Tuner . . . $400
Sony ST-S500ES Tuner . . . $300
Sony APM-66ES Speaker System . . . $1,100/pair
Sony APM-22ES Speaker System. . . $500/pair
Sony CDP-705ESD CD Player . . . $1,500
Sony CDP-605ESD CD Player . . . $1,000
Sony CDP-505ESD CD Player . . . $600
Unfortunately no tape deck prices. Note that all of the ES model CD players had a digital output by 1988 (hence the "D" in the ESD), but they were still extremely expensive. There was also a TA-77ES preamp without the digital built-in, but that's a pretty rare beast. Recently the ESD version went for under $200 on ePay. That's a pretty great deal (if the cosmetics are good) on one heck of a well-built preamp. Shouldn't have sold mine!
