@ThePhonoJack Still looks pretty much the same. I did sell a few of them, including the RCA Black/Grey radio/phonograph. Thinking about unloading more since I don't have the time anymore to refurbish them
Wow you have quite the collection I hope you get them all runnung some day. I have 2 old record players a 1961 Symphonic 4 speed player and a early 50's RCA Victor 45 rpm record player both working good.
i have a garrard sp 25 mk ii 1965 fitted to a dynatron mazurka it been sitting for 22 years fired it up now i use it all the time do you think its worth doing some restoration to the toneare because its running fine with a new stanton needle. i think i might beause the tone arm sems tired
Thanks for the compliment! Yes, the legs make the whole thing. If you notice, my legs also have the originala round, white plastic feet, which are almost always found missing on the units with the legs...
Hi, I have the rca one also, it has the built in amp, and mine at the moment doesn't work, it might be the automatic, not sure it is in the cupboard, it's the one with the metal gold colour tonearm. I like watching your vids. Thx.
Thanks for the comments! At one time, I also had an Arvin alarm clock in a coral/gold color scheme with a clock face that was shaped like an "eye" Arvin had some funky designs!
did you saw my 1966 arvin ac/batt portable record player? i looks like a typewriter or a vintage computer when closed. i finally fixed the record changer on it, but need a one more part and the ss amp may need new caps since it sounds a little weak. cartridge an needls is still good.
Hey M! YES, saw your Arvin. Arvin really had some neat designs for their phonographs and radios. I think the Arvins are one of the most creative of all designs from this era.
Ha! I have that orthophonic...with legs! I won it on eBay years ago with the promise that they had just fired it up the night before. Ofcourse when I opened the box the turntable was rusted solid. Luckily, I had the same turntable out of a bigger console that had been beat up and discarded. It needs some work though, the basic adjustments, clean up and lube that I just don't know how to do. I'll get back to it one day. It's still serving a purpose though as a TV stand for a small TV. Oh well.
Wow!This is exactly what my basement would look like,If I had a basement! Mt attic was overflowing,as I was up to 22 or 24 or something which is why I have 4 players on ebay right now.Ive decided I am far more into portables than tabletops etc,so I am offing some of those and keeping the portables,or suitcases as I call em.Tell me you are selling the Arvin....seriously.I absolutely LOVE that players wedge profile.I should take a similar vid sometime walking around the house showing the players.
Wow! You have a great YouTube page and a great collection. I just bought a slide-o-matic record player attachment on ebay, haven't gotten it yet. Do you know if it uses tubes or not? Thanks!
Thanks XM!! Is your slide-o-matic an attachment or does it have a radio too? If it's an attachment, it doesn't have tubes and needs to be hooked into an amplifier/speakers to work. Glad to hear you are enjoying my site!! STAY TUNED FOR MORE!
Hello! No, it's just the stand alone attachment. By the way, I just bought a restored Seeburg Q160 locally here in Phoenix. Can't wait to get it home and post some videos of it and the Slide-O-Matic. I will definitely stay tuned...
thanx 4 mentioning me at .53secs! last week i got 2 rca victor 45 players model 45-ey and 45-ey-2 off ebay. also today at a flea market i got 1956 gellard 45 record player with the rca rp-190 changer in it. all need restoration work.
Awesome stash of very desirable good stuff. How bout an update? Whats in inventory now? Thanks.
