it's been decades, since I've worked on electronics, especially the tube-types - at some point, if you can provide the numbers off the turn-table, it's-self, and the chassis number for the tuner/amp unit too - we might be able to pull-up some specs, to trouble-shoot... You might luck-out and find _'RCA'_ type connectors, from the turn-table to the amp - if the original can't be sorted out - another one may be dropped in. (the RCA plugs may be spot-soldered), and there may be a switched, two-prong outlet, from the main chassis, to power the turn-table) - if you have a DMM/DVOM, and we can get some test-points, to check things out...

@@staleyexplores - Also: there may be a schematic, in with the included booklets/manuals - that would be _'gold'_ - may be in-side the back too; some included an envelope, taped inside the cabinet... Cheers-
@@staleyexplores - ⚠ Hey Staley, a latent thought to caution you on - when you get into that cabinet - older (vintage) large-capacitors, do-not tend to self-discharge, like most of the modern ones do - what this means, is something that may look like a small aluminium _'can'_ (cylinder) - next to the power-supply (usually, right near the power-cord attachment, to the chassis) - ⚠ those can hold quite a charge ⚡⛈ ⚡you may, yet don't have to discharge it (after unplugging the power-cord), short the capacitor terminals _"pop!!!"_ - otherwise, don't touch those terminals/leads, or the chassis (ground), and the other terminal/lead! I don't even know, if there is one, in your console-player - yet, _"Heads-up!"_ Cheers - stay-safe! 💜
@@markaoslo5653 this is super valuable information also. I have heard about this but didn't think about it in this context! Cheers bud and thanks for all this fantastic insight. 😎
It really is built right and aesthetics are on point no doubt!! Not to mention I really enjoy listening to it, right now it's only the radio but if I can get that record player going then we are super good to go. Ty friend and I hope you are well!

@@markaoslo5653 I will definitely be looking into it more closely as our record collection is growing, we do have another record player, 😂💜⏺️

These old radios just have too much mojo...at over 6 ft long and probably weighs 200 lbs it's a keeper. 😊
Old is gold. I like those classic pieces 👍
