RCA Console - Tubes
« on: July 05, 2015, 11:34:44 AM »
Picked this up Thursday.   (Thanks GDV!)   Powers up but have not got it working yet.    Turntable does not rotate and the needle/stylus seems to be broken off.  Anyway,  should be able to salvage some tubs and speakers from it.  I anyone is interested in the console for 'repurposing,"  drop me a line.  I am planning to haul it to the curb Wednesday.   
All comments and suggestions are appreciated, as always.

If you are going to go the stand alone amp route, don't gut that MPX adapter.   Lots of people restoring those consoles would kill for it.

I would be interested in the electronic parts and changer including the mpx adapter.
