Please I.D. this Console

Post: # 23025Post Hi-Fi-Mogul »

Hi all,
I had a potential customer call and send me these
photos of this cute gal.

I think she's late 1950's era.

Any help on her identification would be great.
And the amp chassis it might contain.

I won't have time to go see it for several weeks,
due to my learning curve of motor-boating
trouble-shooting.

It's a Magnavox, record player only, stereo tube amp. 1960 or older. Collaro Custom changer. Magnasonic, maybe? ;)

I have that same unit, but mine is labeled Columbia. The Magnavox version is called the Aristocrat model 1SC-268F and can be found in the 1959 Magnavox catalog, not brochure, in the downloads. Single ended, PT powered amp. The Sam's for it is also listed in the downloads under chassis amp 197-00. Nice sounding unit for only costing $199.00 in 1959.

Thanks for that information, Bill.

The changer is a Collaro "Custom" L,K,M 600 type,
and I've done several of those.
