1947 Magnavox Windsor Found in NJ!

[amglow]

Found on FB Marketplace in New Jersey! Nice, clean example of the first generation Windsor. No speaker doors and three tweeter array instead of the later horn versions. Even has the original owners manual. Someone needs to save this beautiful Maggie! It even has the FM tuner that was a separate option on the original Windsors.

Beautiful, and yes, definitely needs to be saved.

Another beauty. Definitely needs a loving home.

Always amazed by how many of these totl units survived.

It's a fine unit, to be sure. But the rear photos, showing that big amp and speaker array, left me thinking again: why did Magnavox (and most others) do so little to isolate the changer from the speakers? Really.... what would one more piece of plywood have cost?

With that setup, there was not only the possibility of air movement affecting the changer, but also vibration through the cabinet even with the spring mounts for the changer. It'd be interesting to see how much feedback was picked up at the tonearm?
