While sitting in the house avoiding the dropping temps and grumping at the lake effect snow, I got to thinking about this table radio from Zenith. I almost had one of these last fall, but the guy was rather rude and I just wasn't in the mood for it, so I let him pound sand. Now, are these good radios if found complete with their external speaker? I have a similar unit offered by Silvertone that uses a similar set up, but has 14 tubes crammed into it and push-pull output on both sides. The downside is the fact that they only use one 6 inch speaker in the radio and the external speaker unlike the bigger speakers and the tweeters that Zenith used. (Still plan to get it repaired someday.) I also like the looks of the Zenith and always considered this model to be the king of their AM-FM table radio line. So, would one of these be really worth looking for once the weather eases up (noting the frustrations of finding things in Ohio and finding them complete and at reasonable cost), or should I just stick with my C845Y?
No matter where you go, there you are.
