    RCA Victor Mark I Deluxe "The Vislandia" wiring question

    I just picked up this really nice home entertainment center from an estate sale. The TV is long gone so no NES duck hunt for me... yet. On the plus side, it did come with some Herb Alpert records. The tuner, turntable and all speakers tested (working) BUT only the left side speakers have power...

    Two units that I recently inherited and know nothing about!

    Both of these work! The first is a (I think!) 1903 Victor that belonged to my great grandparents and the second is a Westinghouse console H-M1911 (maybe from 1964) from my grandparents. Just wanted to share!

    Hello, Recently I bought a Victor QL7 turntable in great condition. I notice that the plinth has plenty of space to fill with plasticine or something else.
