I am considering the purchase of a philco 38-2670 tombstone and was hoping someone that is lucky enough to own one of these beauties could comment on the sound the radio produces. The person selling says it is really exceptional in volume and audio quality.
I can usually find a you tube video of any radio I’m looking at to at least get an idea but not this one.
I have not been able to even find the speaker size so it must be a fairly rare radio.
Any comments on what I should be paying would be appreciated, it is fully restored. Thanks in advance
