Weight of 680x
#9

According to Philco Furniture History, the empty cabinet weighs 55 lbs. The chassis is very large and will weigh somewhere between 40 and 50 lbs. Add speaker and clarifiers, and I would guess you would have a total between 125 and 150 lbs.

Does Plycon offer a better rate than Craters and Freighters? Just curious, I had Craters & Freighters ship a Scott Philharmonic from Kansas to here a couple years ago. It was expensive but it arrived in good shape.

Oh, and that 680X has a new power transformer custom built to my specs (I asked for a 130 volt primary to compensate for today's higher line voltages) by Heyboer Transformers, so that's something you won't have to worry about for the next 50 years or more unless you let a 5Z3 short out or something.
