[@danbogel7739]

Hi David. Thanks! Cool you worked in a Zenith store!! They are incredible. I saw one recently listed for free in marketplace. The cabinet was not well taken care of I’m afraid.

Great record player and sound system. The radio playing Nelly Furtado "I'm Like a Bird" was a plus.

[@danbogel7739]

Thanks!

WONDERFUL 😊 DAN

[@johnjames4213]

The electrostatic switches are interesting. They weren’t very common was that because they were problematic or too costly ?

[@Meridian83West]

Wow, that's a rare one. I never saw a Zenith record player with a turntable built by Garrard for Zenith until the late 1970s! Nice sound!

[@danbogel7739]

You have a good eye to see the Garrard in disguise.

[@larryshaver3568]

did you put the cartridge in?

[@danbogel7739]

Yes Larry, I did.

[@larryshaver3568]

Is that a Tetrad cartridge?

[@danbogel7739]

Yes sir

I have a National Sg 707 Record changer with radio. Unfortunately, its stylish headshell has been broken accidentally. I just want to know how can I find its headshell? Can anybody help me in this regard.
I m from Pakistan

[@danbogel7739]

Hello. Please send a picture of your head show. That would help. Thank you.

​@Dan Bogel How Can I send You pics Sir?

[@danbogel7739]

@@syedazfermehdi126 good question!

[@chass5438]

Sounds like the speed is right on too. Most play too fast.

[@larryshaver3568]

i'm starting to prefer Zenith to Magnavox

[@chass5438]

Na, RCA...

[@johnjames4213]

Zenith’s quality was always a step above RCA. RCA was more or less run of the mill.
