Custom RCA Hi-Fidelity Record Player Restored by Jimmy O – YouTube. One of the finest features of this player is that the cabinet has been c ustom built and covered in a beautiful a qua and g rey. You know, these terrific Tube-Powered record players lost their place in history, due to inexpensive imported solid state electronics, starting back in the 60′s. Not only did we loose the full, warm tube sound, replaced by transistors, but we also lost those beautiful wooden cabinets, covered in various fun, vibrant colors. Well, I’m happy to say I have found vintage style coverings, the same that were used back in the day! Recovering of these cabinets is a lost art, and as you could imagine, takes quite some time to complete. I chose just the right colors for this cabinet’s coverings: A fantastic 19 50′s aqua and grey… The covering is also waterproof, and is the exact same style that was used back in the day! I also decided on a black and silver speaker grill cloth , along with gold painted tapered legs. Has a Sonotone 2T cartridge and flip over stylus, so you can play either LP’s , 45′s or 78′s. This is an automatic changer, so you can stack records, and they will drop and play in turn, and the unit will shut off after the last record has been played. Comes with 4 speeds for playing 16,33,45, and 78 rpm records. The entire changer has been carefully taken apart, rebuilt, and works great! This player is powered by a po werful RCA 3 tube amplifier, which includes a 12A x7 , and 2- 50C5 outputs. The amplifier was completely redone, a nice vintage white painted chassis, along with all new components!! I’m so excited to bring these classic Hi-Fi’s back to life… You’ll have lot’s of fun listening to your LP’s on this quality built player ; the warm, full, concert like sound this produces just can’t be beat! Thanks for looking, and God bless the USA! Jimmy O Don’t forget to see my other fun Hi – Fi’s and amplifi ers curre n tly listed! There are many vintage record players out there, though it is important when purchasing any vintage electronics, to make sure the dried out or leaking capacitors in the amplifier have been replaced. A vintage record player may still work after 50 years, but the original capacitors will eventually fail, and cause serious damage to the player’s amplifier, and be dangerous to operate.
