South-Korean OEM Manufacturer Seoum was the company that the Lenco R 600 Receiver developed and produced in 1978. When they arrived in Burgdorf they went through their final check where it got its Lenco sticker on the rear side of the unit. The Lenco R 600 was part of the series 600.

The R 600 receiver unites the functionality of the A 600 amplifier and the T 600 tuner in one unit.

Many of the units failed the QC in Switzerland and needed repair before they could be sold. I was also in the Netherlands in February 1980 to check and fix more than 40 units for Naho BV - the distributor got them directly from South Korea - many of them needed some service !
