This came from my mother in laws home
My wife listened to many a record back in the sixties
It has sat untouched for decades
My wife wanted it in working order and I had it restored for her
We’re now collecting vinyl
It sounds great and is a joy to just sit back and listen to older music

the last console model I got was from a friend who got a larger one from his Uncle. Man, that thing could rattle the windows! Beat the neighbors are glad we moved.
speaking of vinyl, counted the 33's the other day: over 600. that oughta take some time to listen to. ENJOY!
 
I have an early 60s console, all original internals including speakers. All tube, pre transistorized. Sounds great, plays well, it even has Bluetooth.

I originally purchased this just for the cabinet but when I saw how clean the electronics were I chose to keep it all original. The left side was dead but after a couple tubes replaced it was all good. The woodwork needs work and is the only reason it was as cheap as it was.
