Voice of Music model 560

Never mind the price. Why you anyone cover a cabinet made of "imported Honduras mahogany" with Tolex? One of the more descriptive sales pitches I have seen for a record player.

At $4K, how can you "never mind the price"? And yes, covering mahogany is criminal in almost any circumstances. V-M's mahogany always looked good.

I can't believe he sells anything at those prices. Years ago, I had that model in Mahogany. They sound very nice, PP 6v6, PT powered and three speakers. I wish I still had it; I could cover it in Tolex and make a fortune. :roll: :roll: ;) :lol:

The cabinet must have been really beat to convince somebody it was a good idea to cover mahogany with Tolex. If that was the case, you have to wonder what condition the electronics was in.
