I believe the two speed changer was designated as 42-E. Probably didn't manufacture too many of those due to less expensive changers from other companies im the late 40s. My 1947 413-N1 came equipped with a 41-E and cost was around $1700.00 new, a rather princely sum in the late 40s.

Sue Thompson Norman playing ❤...had this in grade school in the 1970s

What year is this machine....1940s?... never seen a jukebox like this.... Beautiful ❤...the 1920s music goes great Too 👍

Great ! Beauty times, beauty people who did it with love. Sorry my english. From Ukraine

Wowwwww! I have never seen a jukebox anything like this before! I had no idea they were so old! Beautiful and amazing!

Love.this play more.jukebox

A fantastic mechanical machine ! Respect to the owners for the impeccable technical condition . 👌👍👍👍

This is like a jukebox, awesome 👍

Wow! What a wonderful rarity!

I absolutely love this, thank you so much for sharing this, it holds a special place in my heart

Wow sweet conversation, great work 👍

I don't know if Bob was located in Pasadena or Glendale, CA

Just got a quadrabell II-any idea how to run it to an external audio source?

Hi Rick Very cool! I’ve never seen one of these. As many tours that Bob gave me, I guess he was keeping it under wraps. Be well. Jeff

Great machine!!! But what’s this world coming to when you have to pay to play your own jukebox!!!…😊😅😮

I remember first learning about this technology from Bob… pretty incredible !!

At first I thought there was a record skip … but realized it was clip clop of horse shoes!…😂

Looks like a jukebox mech in a microwave cabinet!!!…😊 Great to see this item!!!

I just found a Capehart 500 G cabinet (unfortunately Gutted). Such a beautiful piece of furniture.

Has FM

An absolute gem !

What a gorgeous bit of kit!

I just came across one of these for sale. Very neat

Looks like it has a giant oval speaker up front

Even the coin mech was fancy and ornate!!! Beautiful masterpiece all throughout!!! The modern internet juke boxes are made from pressboard and are ugly with no class at all and lack bass response

Beautiful primitive early form of jukebox I wish they made the modern internet jukeboxes with that intricate fancy woodwork and detailed cabinetry. Capehart also manufactured radios TVs and record players in the 50s and sixties to compete with Crosley products

Two most interesting things: 1 You get no choice or selection - you drop a dime and you get to hear whatever the next record in the stack is and 2. no lock on that door! They sure trusted the general public in those days!

The tripod is a marvelous invention!

Just now reading that Sondheim's father had one of these in their Sam Remo Apartment, NYC.

Que Maravilha!!! Isso é lindo

How large is the cone speaker?

That sounds awesome. And what a beautiful cabinet.

Look at the about tab for my contact info

Very nice engineering.

Hi Bob, just curious, without sound, is the motor on the out of this world speaker noisy?

Your changer is one of the early 41-E changers. The early 41-E changers (1946-48) were 78 RPM only, but the later ones (1949-50) were dual-speed (78 and 33). Early dual-speed changers were designed so you could swap the tonearm back and forth between a cart with a 3mil to a cart with .7 Mil Cartridge depending on which speed you were playing. Later when Cartridges with dual styli were available Capeheart adopted those. I wish I could find an affordable (sub $400) 41-E. All I've been able to find is a 16-E...And mine has pot-metal issues (including a mostly missing turnover arm). The 16-E is not as easy to adapt to LPs. The changer and turntable are both driven off a single motor (no turntable idler drive like the 41) and the tonearm doesn't appear to be made in a way condusive to mounting or adjusting the tracking force of a post-WWII cartridge (read that any cart that has any business playing an actual LP). Still, If I can cast new parts to replace the ruined pot metal and make my 16-E work at 78 RPM I may try to copy the planetary 78 to 33 RPM reduction gearing on my RCA RAE-26, and see if I can adapt the tonearm to track at a safe/gentle weight for LPs. That project is on hold till I restore the bargain E.H. Scott FM Phillahrmonic chassis I want to pair my 16-E with.

A beautiful machine that plays the records at the perfect speed.

That is a lot of color. Looks awesome.

That is the most glorious piece!

I was wondering, does that console have a Western Electric speaker?

This type of music needs a comeback. Singers too!

What song was it playing?

I am in need of a movement round suspension block. Any idea who could replicate the one in your clock? Thank you in advance. Bill billdtnt@gmail.com.

How do you know it's a reproduction?

Who's band is the first record? Love it.

It's hard to believe that these are parted out on Ebay. They're masterpieces.

Very cool

I never get to see those age this was built. Brilliantly made.

Une pure merveille de technologie !

Man, that's a beautiful record player.
