Normally I don't go for postwar consoles, but this weekend I found a deal on a really nice 49-1603 that was too good to pass up. Plus, I think the cabinet is kind of interesting.

The chassis is just a 6-tube, so it shouldn't be any problem. I'm less sure of the phono. Were they putting multi-speed phonos in consoles in '49? Does anyone have a manual for this set or one that is similar?

Thanks,

Tom

IF can wire size and Rubber mounts?
Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
