He took a sip of his bourbon rocks and continued, “It just switched from mono to stereo. It was right around the time we switched from mono to stereo,” he said. It had two woofers and a tweeter above the woofers. It’s a model that combines the best of the old and the new, with a tube amp and stereo sound. I also like the fact that it is made in Germany, made in Germany. The metal parts are solid and sturdy, just like in Germany. The model was manufactured in 1962. The previous owner bought it new a few years after its release. He said he bought it brand new at Yokohama Port. I think he leased it to a ski lodge or something for the winter. He said he wanted to sell it because he was going to rebuild his house or tear down his warehouse, so he went to see it and decided at once.

The way records are played is also a little different from the norm, with an ingenious system. The record itself is held up vertically and rotates around in a circular motion, with the bounce coming from the side. The original blueprints were also included in the package, so it was always possible to fix the record if the right people saw it. Although it was a modest looking machine, it is not hard to imagine that it tickled my collector’s fancy.
