    New Addition to the Collection: Zenith!

    Yesterday I acquired this Zenith C587, AM/FM/Phono. It has RCA jacks for Tape on the back and a headphone jack, too. It was in the same family since it was purchased around 1973, if I recall the dates correctly, and I had repaired it for the son of the original purchaser. After enjoying it once...

    RCA Portable TT Convert to Powered Speaker.

    I'm looking to convert this turntable into a portable tube powered speaker. I want to use the existing speakers and plan 2 add a Bluetooth module where the input molex plug is. My concern is more of the on off switch which would go where the phono motor molex plug is. I have heard of the...

    RCA 78rpm MG Dual stylus Cartridge

    From the EXTREMELY limited amount of info on the net regarding these phono carts I'm not even sure that I've accurately identified this cart. I still feel as though I don't know what to call it. I'm hoping someone is willing and able to extend their knowledge of an esoteric area of phono...

    Friends! I bought my first turntable recently. I've had an important-to-me record over ten years that I've never heard. Since I bought my $5.00 British turntable I've found several more local thrift that I believe I'll enjoy! Neither receiver in my home speaks vinyl. I think I need a phono...

    Vintage Record Player Humming/Buzzing!

    Hello, I recently acquired what I presume to be a Sylvania Record Player from the 1950s. It plays records excellent without problems, however.... it has this buzzing coming from the speakers that can't be ignored when on medium/high volumes. It only starts when the record turntable is engaged...

    Port-o-matic - P8 Portable 1930's Am/SW/PHONO - Repair project

    Ill admit, at first I wasn't quite sure what it was. It turns out its a 'portable' AM/SW/Phonograph that is made by Port-o-matic. Its an AC/or DC (battery) unit. I have never heard of them. Adding insult to injury, the cover is an extension of the tonearm, so you have to close the case...

    Info. on a Presto Disc Recorder Type 8-R, please?

    I wasn't sure where I should post about this nifty old thing. it's non-working and missing parts, but had powered on at one point a decade ago. I can't restore it myself, but It's a really beautiful thing from a bygone era and a part of history I should think. It should be preserved, eh...
