This system, with an MSRP of 1999,-- DM in 1994, is the "smaller brother" of the SC-VC1180:

The Tech nics RS-CA1060 cassette deck is identical.

The Tech nics SL-CA1060 CD player, on the other hand, is a simple version that can only play audio CDs, but it has a digital output for that.

The Tech nics ST-CA1060 preamplifier only has an input/output called DCC and a phono connection; Dolby Surround ProLogic is also missing here.

The Tech nics SE-CA1060 amplifier only has 2 x 40W sine waves at 6 ohms.

Loudspeaker SB-CA1060in 3-way technology, whereby the tweeter dome and midrange driver radiate to the front, while the woofer sits in the housing and radiates to the rear via a passive diaphragm

The passive diaphragms for bass reproduction are clearly visible in the picture.

As a point of criticism, one could cite the fact that the individual components only have a central power supply and are connected with ribbon cables - so they cannot be used individually. Furthermore, the terminals for the speaker cables on the amplifier are very small, and with 2 x 40W at 6 ohms there is almost too little power available. Otherwise, the technical design is quite passable, especially the speaker boxes make a solid impression. However, the display of the preamplifier lights up weaker and weaker over time, so it is recommended to disconnect the system from the mains when not in use.

This system is probably the last classic mini-system from Tech nics, which also explicitly addressed an adult clientele who were looking for a high-quality system for enjoying music through its design and equipment. The successor models, on the other hand, appeal specifically to a young audience through their styling and scope of equipment - high-quality equipment features such as THDP, VBO, Dolby C NR, etc. are no longer found there.
