Hey yall, I need some help with a Philco Cabinet that my friend just bought
#5

Hi and welcome to the Phorum,

I took a quick look at the free sources of manuals but no such luck. Did see a pay to download one. Oh and this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2sYVoDr...tvphononut  As for the weak phono I would clean in mode switch. If that didn't do it then the cartridge would be next on the list.

As for the price that's' strictly between buyer and seller. And everybody has to do their homework before the sale. This insures that the seller knows what they are selling and the buying knows what they are buying. Weather it's from 1946, 56, 66, or 76 it's not going to be a plug and play unit unless it's been serviced by a technician not a youtube wantobe.

The turntable can be the budget breaker with the labor to disassemble, reassemble, cleaning, lub, replacement of failing rubber parts, set up, and adjustment.

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
