The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Hello!
I have a VE 10-35X Orthophonic changer machine that I'm ready to sell. I've had it since August, working on it off and on until I've been satisfied that it's handling records smoothly and playing about as well as possible.
I have another identical machine which I'll be keeping.
The changer functions perfectly and the motor is smooth and nearly silent. I've installed new bearings and rubber isolator in the gun metal reproducer, which is free of any cracks or swelling. I believe the metal exponential folded horn is the same as the one in the popular VV 8-35 model.
The cabinet is very nice, not refinished, except for the top. The veneer is original, but the finish was botched by the previous owner. It's now smooth and shiny. Door corners have some flea bites, almost inevitable with this style cabinet, I've found. Delivered to Wayne or Union: $2000.00
I could send a short video of this actual machine, or you can see my other machine functioning on youtube:

Any questions? Please pm me!
Enjoy your week!

Goodness, Bob! If only I had a bigger apartment....

It's about 5 inches narrower than your 8-35, Adam! It'd fit in that space easily!

I'm happy to consider offers, everyone!

What a lovely machine. I'd love to give this a new home in New Zealand, but I suspect the transport would be prohibitively expensive

Hello again!
This machine still needs a home!
Free transport to or along route from Baltimore to Union show in June.
I can hold it indefinitely while shipping/pickup plans are made.
Price reduced to $1800.00, and as before,
offers or interesting trades/proposals happily considered!
Thanks, and have a good week.
