Recent Acquisition - Victrola VV-XIV
Posted: Wed Aug 19, 2020 2:29 pm
Hello all,
I picked up a Victor VV-XIV, serial number VV-XIV 214815 from 1920, last Thursday, and cannot express how excited I am!
The motor runs quietly and smoothly, and it sounds incredible! It came with two No. 2 reproducers - one gold and one (I am assuming the original) nickel, both need rebuilding which I am going to attempt on the Nickel one. The oak finish is in amazing condition with only minor wear.
I only need to find a couple of missing albums and it will be all set! It even came with the key!
