I picked up this Philco 16B today, courtesy of a local radio guy who has an extraordinary collection of antique radios.  It's been tastefully refinished, and electronically restored.  I had no idea these things were such beasts.  It must weigh 50lbs. 
Sounds great, and will look great in the living room once I move some things around.
