Victrola VV-IX measurements vs a mysterious cabinet
Posted: Sat Feb 21, 2015 8:29 pm
A while ago, I bought a VV-VIII & almost matching stand, from a nearby neighbor. The stand is oak and odd - bulging in 3 directions, with Victrola-like legs and lighter arched panels on the doors (I'm not sure if it's all oak) . However, it also has 'cut outs' at the corners on top, obviously meant to hold the 4 feet of ...something. My Amberola V can almost fit its feet in the depressions, but not quite.
This cabinet also has no shelves, but does have panels inside with multiple, closely spaced, THIN horizontal slots which aren't obviously meant for strong record-holding shelves - the slots are less than ¼", which would make some pretty delicate shelving.
I'm wondering if any VV-IX owners might favor me with the distance between the inside edges , across the front & sides, of their machines' feet. 16 ¾ front-to-back and 13 ⅛ side-to-side are the distances of the indentations
