Hi. Thanks for the welcome email. For the most part, I found that the machine works fairly well. Though I do need to replace the gaskets and diafram in the soundbox. Can you recommend a reliable soucre to purchase these items?Boyle6 wrote:Kevin & Mike....
I also want to welcome both of you to the board. My first Victrola was a XIV that was built in 1915. It is still one of my favorite talking machines, I play it all the time and just love it. If there are any pictures that I can supply to either of you, please do not hesitate to ask. Once your XIV's are up and going, I believe you will both be very surprised how well these old machines play and sound. You will also find the folks on this board very helpful, I have gotten really good advice over the years from the experts on this board. They have really helped me out and are always very open to giving opinions and advice. Once again, welcome to the world of old talking machines, you both have purchased a really nice machine to start with!!!!
