Hi Everyone,

I have a philco q-1568-wa that I bought from someone off of craigslist. It is in good shape, the radio and speakers work great and mechanically the record player works great, but occasionally (more frequently than not) the sound cuts out while records are playing. I thought it might be a bad needle, so I replaced it, it played a whole stack no problem.

But then the problem returned. Usually a quick tap to the side of the player will bring it back but something is definitely wrong. Any thoughts on what it could be? And how I can go about fixing it?

I would appreciate any help you may be able to offer!

Joe
