Probably a good thing you curbed their enthusiasm, although the question remains...which sound box? :D

That's a good question - - and one I didn't ask. The seller is a sort of picker/phono guy. Nice fellow, but does a lot of "shuffling" of parts. The lid for the TLP came from a different Credenza, the motor from yet another one. The grille - which I couldn't see during my visit - looks pretty good!

I'm assuming the brass one won't be the "one". Hah....

If you look closely at the one photo, there are actually nine reproducers, two barely visible in the lower right hand side of the turntable area. I was re-considering the deal if they all came with it, as I said before, I have everything this machine would need to be complete in my parts stash, but alas...I'm passing again on it!

Now Sean, if those red label Columbia's were tossed in as well would that swing the deal for you? :lol:

Although I'm convinced that the music of the Orthophonic era is among the best, I've never quite totally warmed up to the machines of that period yet. Just slow I guess. Don't laugh at me but to close the deal for me the Seller would have to throw in an M or diamond A and yes I know they don't fit. ;)

Well warm up soon before the prices go up even more Bruce! This I though was a nice looking example (if you had the parts to put it right)...I wonder if this baby found a good home?
