Magnavox Regency Symphony, 1947?

[Ron Ramirez]

Hi Joe

I saw that Maggie on Louisville Craigslist. I didn't want to spend $125 just to get an FM tuner, and be left with another large console I would have no use for.

Doug Houston tells me that adapting a cartridge to the 256 might be a problem, but he did suggest an Electro-Voice Power Point cartridge. I believe he mentioned as much in a previous post in this thread. Mine currently has no cartridge, but some idler wheels are on the way to me. And, I think, the motor mounts on my 256 are in good shape already.

The grille cloth in my Regency is very similar to Philco "ribbed" cloth. The Regency cloth is redder, but I think the Philco "ribbed" cloth will be a good substitute. Number 14 from Radio Grille Cloth Headquarters.
