This is a nice console, don’t get me wrong. But even in the ‘60s, the highest end gear were component systems. McIntosh, Marantz, Fisher were the audiophile brands of the era. The console systems were marketed towards the more casual music listeners.
The quality goes in before the name goes on! And they damn well meant it! Absolutely stunningly beautiful! I'd be playing my Dean Martin albums on that! 😊👍❤
Great job of refurbishing that console! The sound was fantastic, I looked at the speakers but the music seemed come from all directions at the same time! A great stereo sound!
my aunt had a console stereo in her house when i was growing up. it was amazing how much clear sound that thing produced to fill the entire house. however, my $200 soundbar with satellite surrounds and a subwoofer achieve more or less the same thing without taking up so much space. if anything, that good room-filling sound has been commoditized, which is really great. but i do agree that an old-school console stereo, if in very good condition such as yours, can certainly be a functional piece of art.
Well that answered my question about whether the tape deck would go down with reels on it I couldn't imagine that it didn't,, that would have been ridiculous,, but it looked so close...
The height of 60's audiophile tech. Very nice!

Beautiful cabinet and music. I have the vinyl album of that Montovani. Love his music.
The carpet is a nice touch
I have a YT960! Awesome piece of Americana! My reel to reel is dead however. I really need to get it repaired.
What have been cool to see you demonstrate the microtouch needle by sliding it across the record like in the ad
Fantastic! Lots of work and precision. It's great.
That is just so ridiculously cool
Awesome Restore!
Very Unique, wish Wrensilva audio would do something like this, I’ll buy it quick
looks and sounds lovely
Back when companies made a concerted effort to make things that sounded good for the mass’s!
Can’t say that today!
Beautiful.

Perfect. Mine will hopefully be half that nice when i'm done with it 😀

I don't understand... what is the source of the music, the LP record or the tape? Why are both playing at the sane time?
Do you plan on selling this in the future?
