A properly restored jukebox should work for years in a home environment. If you do this to your antique jukebox, you no longer have a collectable antique, you have a frankenstein jukebox. As any serious collector knows, the closer to original any collectable is, the better. If you want a jukebox with solid state amplifiers and control, buy a newer one. I personally own an M 100 C that I recapped 35 years ago. I have never had to do anything but replace the 6L6 output tubes. Once set up and adjusted correctly, they should run for years, unless abused. I just don't get this product and really don't want to knock it, as it looks thoroughly well thought out and constructed. It just seem to me that a through and complete restoration of the original electronics will result in years of enjoyment without damaging the value of these historic machines.

The amplifier can be quickly swapped between the original and solid state with no soldering at all. most our customers save the original in case someone with your feelings buys their box. but seriously, the wait list for someone to work on an amp is long and the people with the shills are retiring or no longer with us. these allow these boxes to remain in peoples houses and be used and loved for years to come. We heard the same thing with the model A cars, why do you have to hot rod them. Now look the majority of people want the hot rods and not an original model A. ITs a changing of way of thought, if you don't care for it, we commend you and your skill, please try and preserve your knowledge, pass it on , teach others, even start a youtube channel. You have a skill that was common that is not as much anymore. Please teach what you know, and lets together keep this hobby alive.

Would you do a video like this for a Seeburg 222 ? Or is it all basically the same . Ty
@victoryglassАй бұрын
For the Seeburg 222, the Amplifier is very similar, but the solid state Credit unit is an external and much simpler to install. We do not have a Tormat replacement yet, but those are much more reliable than the pinbanks. The 222 was a Tormat and the first stereo jukeboxes. But being the first the amp is quote the bear to rebuild, the solid state stereo amp SSA3 is the way to go.

I take it you didn’t reinstall the coin switch cable. Is it now free play? Is the keyboard latch solenoid continuously energized? TIA.
@aaronschmitt5392 ай бұрын
Our replacement CCU is free play only. It uses the same latch solenoid protection that our Free Play Adapters have had forever, where the latch solenoid is only energized after pressing a button. If only one button is pressed and the selection is not completed after about 12 seconds, the CCU releases the solenoid.

Curious why you don’t really seem to do a whole lot to the selection receiver side. As in rebuild it before plugging it in. Mine actually smokes from that side, the PO showed me exactly where it was frying. So needless to say it at least looks good setting there, but won’t be getting plugged in until I can have that side replaced or rebuilt.
@victoryglass2 ай бұрын
On the pinbank models (M100A, M100B, M100C, HF100G, 100W, HF100R, and 100J), the selection receivers are very simple and usually all original components can remain in place. However, on the models with Tormat memory systems (Model V200 of 1955 and beyond), the selection receivers are much more complicated and will require a rebuild. But we are working on something to address those models as well.

Could this be retrofitted to an L100 mech, if the control center was also changed to an earlier unit that uses the pinbank memory unit? I have an L100 with the modules missing, and wonder if this could be made to work. Thanks!
@victoryglass2 ай бұрын
Those are great machines, and a major issue is the AMP modules. We are actively working on a replacement solid state amp, but you will still need to build new selection receiver boards. we have them unpopulated at victory glass. 86-6708 as well as PCB mount sockets. These boards are all known as fire hazards and should be replaced, so your going to need to get this board no matter what.

The DS160 uses a solid state memory called Tormat, really ahead of its time. We are still on the fence making replacement for those. Not nearly as troublesome as pinbanks. send us a contact on our website and ask to be put on the list if we do, that always helps gauge interest in products.

We had a unit before and sold it. It appears the gentleman I bought this from has everything except the knobs. Does Victory Glass have the dial knobs availabl and the key for the latch. There is no number on the lock that I can find.

Sad by the late 1940's wood was mostly replaced by plastics and aluminum and most of these craftsmen were furloed out. I owned a 1938 #600 playing 78’s back around 1955 and the wood box was still flawless, just had to do a varnish refinish and it looked new. HiFi ?? had just one speaker-- a giant 15" electro-dynamic with lots of 60~ hum so knocked out the speaker coil and an LA magnet company managed to fit in an Alnico permanent magnet and it was good to go. Most audio amplifier tubes were early 2-digit types like 30, 45, 80 etc and readily available from surplus stores.
