Classic Hifi Care

I thought some of you guys might like this one. I haven't seen a cabinet like this before. It looks to be in nice shape.

The reason that the "radio function does not work" is that there is not a tuner installed. The amp likely has a "tuner" option on the selector switch, and they turned to that and heard nothing.

That would be correct, Chris, it goes where the records are stored. That certainly is a different Early American cabinet.

Somebody out in Phoenix should contact the seller and tell him that since the radio doesn't work, repairs will be VERY expensive, then make a low-ball offer.

Chris Campbell

I like your idea, Chris! For me, it would be like a dog chasing cars. What would I do if I caught one? I don't have room for it.

Not bad except for those weird flying buttresses, wings, or whatever they are.. bizarre.

Some early American furniture had those corner thingies. It helps keep the "set top appointments" from sliding off.....

Was the vibrasonic a reverb?

Yes, it was!

Bill

1962 model with back-lighted knobs, very cool feature and that year only . I swear that is a GE cabinet design they did some real exaggerated EA.



The radio option would be a slide rule tuner, like an SK77. I had a model one year newer SK107, no tuner and but it used PP 6V6 for center channel and 1 6BQ5 for right and another for left channel. It had that uber-cool separate preamp chassis with vibrasonic but it was sold after some use in the shop.
