Nice 1963 Zenith Suitcase Stereo

Post: # 16653Post Hi-Fi-Mogul »

I'm posting this because of the extremely nice condition.

The price is not extravagant, though the owner did not say
they had the capacitors replaced.

It uses a power transformer, 6AQ5 outputs, and has the
bass speaker design that takes signal from each
stereo channel.

The record changer is a custom V-M product that I like.

This gal, like my "portable" Motorola suitcase, is heavy.

The colors are eye-catching, IMO.

And YES, it's too far away, ha ha !!

I like those too, they remind me of the big Motorola portables that I know sound so nice.

That unit, in a teen's hands was a passport to popularity!
