I saw your page when looking for info, especially since I wasn't sure about the model number at first. I could see that the 1710 and 1720 looked similar, but wasn't entirely sure how they were related. As for the year, the seller told me that he bought it in 1972, and that's when the above-pictured Burdick's ad was from, so I went with that.

The earlier Sony CRT's seemed to stand up better. I seem to think that they were still made in Japan. The ones, made in California didn't last as long.
It sure is a nice example of a well-kept set. It was worth getting.
