The SL-HF77 was a well specified Super Beta HiFi model. It was not released in the UK domestic market, it's nearest UK equivalent being the SL-HF100.
The machine is lower profile than the SL-HF100 and follows the design style of the SL-F30/60 series. It replaces the individual channel select buttons with an up/down pair of controls. The infrared remote is also slim like the SLF30/60 series. The machine has provision for a sound only recording (this feature disables the video drop out compensator) which also doubles in enabling it to be used with a PCM encoder to give higher than CD quality digital stereo audio. The front flap houses the following controls:
