vintage gear esp. tuners with controls on top


My vintage stereo rack has a spot for a turntable, but my turntable is now on a semi-wall mounted unit for better isolation. The spot the turntable is recessed, essentially imagine a box with no top you would have accessed the turntable from above.

But this is an opportunity, right! I could relive my life in the late 80s with a Tandberg cassette deck, but I dunno, can I really run that through my Vandersteen Quatros? Moreover, just what would I do with a cassette deck? Play one of my twenty cassette tapes?

A tuner would be ideal, but is there any decent tuner out there that has its controls on top?

Or any other gear that I can stick in there that'd make sense?

Google Nakamichi 630 & you'll see a tuner/preamp with an angled face. Maybe this will fit your needs. I've seen these sell for a few hundred dollars, in 7/10 or 8/10 condition.
