Sealing A Victrola Credenza Horn

Post by travisgreyfox »

I was wondering how difficult this process is for somebody that is not very mechanically inclined. I am still not very good at even rebuilding Victrola motors, even though I have done like 8 :lol:

The machine sounds great to me the way it is, with its rebuilt reproducer (thanks Wyatt), but what if it sounds even better with a sealed horn? Depending on how hard this task is I may want to take on this endeavor.

Also anyone have any good internet sources for this re-sealment process? A youtube video would be really helpful.


Thanks,

Travis

I suggest using the search feature here on the TMF. Search seal Credenza horn and you will get some results.

For example, this thread had some tidbits:

Also see the link from a post in that thread about the "treatment."

Thanks for the info. I did have ample time to start this project, but now everything has come up. Guess it will sit on the "do later, maybe" list.
