The TR-5 and TR-750 were
cheap amplifiers designed and launched in 1964. Although
suitable for a range of purposes, they were marketed
as an add-on to the Micro-6
and Slimline
radios. By using a pair of them, they could be used
as stereo amplifiers. One Sinclair ad stated:
MORE MICRO-6 DEVELOPMENTS
Because of the enormous interest
in the Micro-6 we at Sinclair Radionics have been
devoting much of our time to the development of accessories
which add to its usefulness. The first of these, the
TR750 Power Amplifier was introduced last month. This
remarkably low-priced, high performance design has,
of course, a great many applications but in conjunction
with the Micro-6 or the Slimline it can form a really
powerful car, home or portable radio.
Neither amplifier appears to have stayed in the Sinclair
range for very long, only being advertised during 1964
and thereafter disappearing into oblivion. |
