My guess is Voice of Music.
It looks like a tube unit to me.

Thanks Pilot.

Yea, sure looks like a tube unit to me also.

I didn't check the location first...its too far away...up above Orlando...garage sale.

Should have a nice little stereo tube amp inside.

It is a 1960 model VM. It has a separate tube amp with two 6BQ5's per channel.
The center section is a door that opens for record storage or the optional
slide out reel to reel deck.

I thought Zenith! Hmmm. :scratch2:

 

[portnoy]

My instant thought was Motorola (2 channel)

Thanks. I've already got a couple console amps that need to be rebuilt...

If it was a real special one....I'd drive up and get it. But a bit far for me.

I've already got a very small voice of music, a nice sized webcor, an RCA, and Magnavox. Plus a Pilot 232 in need of rebuilding.

But of course, I could always use more!

I can't think of it right off hand, but there was another thread with the same model not too long ago. I think Orthophonic nailed it.

Might I recommend re-building the Pilot first, so you can listen to it while you're working on the others.

Yes! I really want to rebuild the Pilot, but bought a modest fixer upper house down in Fla....and that really has me busy.

For now, I'm reading the threads here.....and learning. Also getting my electronics tool kit together.

I really want to do a bi-amp set up....and am looking for a second Pilot.

I use to buy off Craigslist years ago in the DC area and flip the items. I had lucked in to a Pilot 232 and matching 210 preamp....but sold them. :tears:

So now, I've bought another one. I've heard such great things about them.
