Repair of a Symphonic record player from Shango066, and others

[@TheGuitologist]

I enjoy hearing the stories about the gospel radio station. It sounds like the station I worked at back in the early 90's everything was old, tube and well beyond it's life expectancy.

The one tube Motorola that I had when I was a kid was so loud as years went by the volume too many I would either replace the tube or the needle but I was just a kid and I should have known to take it to hop Johnson he would have either recapped it or put a cartridge in it but he would have definitely made it work like it should have one tube wonders forever

Love that old Philco. Has some similarities to my Philco console with shortwave, record recorder and beam of light tone arm. Great video.

[@BigDaddy_MRI]

I got Shango’s address years ago. I sent him a three pronged whatchathermorevobulator. He was happy. I have to tell you, I’ve got 6 or so years left of videos to go so you may see a lot of comments telling you: I love your videos. Now, that don’t mean I want to go dancin’ in the moonlight. It means I genuinely like your work, expertise, experience, and I appreciate your rants and when you get upset and I agree with you nearly 100%. So, just keep on!! Thanks for a great video!!

[@pcno2832]

That's the first record I'd buy if I owned a shop in San Francisco. It would be playing through the PA system all night. No one would be sleeping in that doorway, unless they just shot through a month's supply of black tar.

[@randyab9go188]

We have a ice cream /Quickie Mart chain in the Cincinnati area call United Dairy Farmers or UDF. They had issues with people hanging out and panhandling in front of their Avondale location. They did exactly what you suggested except they used real classical music 24/7. No one loitered in the parking lot or in front of the store after that!

Back in the day i used to be able to just run down to radio shack for part's and get thing's repaired the same day in most instances.But no more radio shack. nowaday's you got to order all the part's online and wait and some places you have to have a minimum order grr such a hassle getting part's nowaday's if you can get them.It seem's now everything is made to be thrown away not be repaired and people don't want to pay anything for all your time knowledge and effort to repair their stuff what a sad throwaway world.

Another good repair video. Always learn something new, this time in addition to the electronics, I learned that if we are ever invaded by Martians with the huge green heads to have a Mrs. Miller album ready to play.That will surely make their heads explode! :)

[@jimmyday9536]

Dear phononut, I have 2 of the RCA one-time wonder 45 rpm changer phonos, and in one of your videos you showed an FET preamp that could be built and added, for more gain, it is simply powered from the 25L6 cathode. I had gotten new cartridges from Voice Of Music but of course the output was a bit weak and thin. I built two of the prramps and added them to the phonos and my word do they sound great now. I even connected the little pink RCA to an Infinity Studio Monitor speaker I had just rebuilt, and was amazed at what that 25L6 could do with the proper drive! Thank you so much and I remain a forever subscriber.

[@vtjmproductionsusa2390]

That tone arm looks great on that player. Great video 👍

[@Wildman9]

I can picture Shango and crew dancing in the caves.With that Mrs.Miller,priceless.

[@justsumguy2u]

I enjoyed that hour-long video, I watched every minute of it. I like what you did with the metal tonearm, it fits the record player perfectly. And I agree that it works well enough as-is, I wouldn't do anything else to it either.

Good job once again! That grey tonearm looks like factory, fitted it nicely. Kudos to Shango066 for shipping this to you, even though it was meant to be smashed in transit. LOL!

[@NebukedNezzer]

Jay Leno said to his mechanic. Is it my imagination that we have to completely rebuild everything I buy that has been "restored"? His mechanic said. Its true all the restorations we get are worthless.

[@themoviemaniac8416]

Leno's a perfectionist, that's why. Other people restore things to what they can reasonably afford. Doesn't make them worthless (except to perfectionists). Leno would crap his pants over the way RTVP Nut drilled the plastic tonearm to accept a modern cartridge.

Simply love your videos. These phonographs are like 50’s SciFi movies. The only reason to have or listen to one is to prove the datum “so bad it’s good”. Mcintosch and Audio Research should be quite concerned about losing market shares to technology such as this. Harmonic distortion was lowered to 96% with the advent of this model. Setting a new standard for others to _descend_ ascend to. I cannot imagine hifi can get better than this.

Back in 1962 we moved to town to a small rooming house. There was a kitchen/living-room combo, 1 bedroom, and on the other side of the house a second bedroom, where I slept with other folks who had beds in the large room. Not much of a place but better then the street I guess. The folks bought us a record player, my 2 sisters were in high school, I was still in the 5th grade. The player we got looked very much like that one, but it was a bit higher grade with a changer. One of those deals through Sears that came with 100 FREE records! All 45 RPM, and only a few that anyone had ever heard of. One was "Hello Mother", another "The Lion Sleeps Tonight", which my father (a 1910 model) hated with a passion, and another comic song "My little old shack in Minneapolis Minnesota. Funny the things you remember when you are a kid. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fme8g3eAbJZ-aZI Thanks for the memories! 73's KE0JBL

Nice player from "Shango066". Thankfully, you replaced it with a tonearm, because the white tonearm doesn't track well. My GE Show 'N Tell" had that with no mounting bracket and screws. But it's a great idea if I can find a busted record player that has a metal tonearm, it will fit well with the GE Show 'N Tell to avoid skipping with bass intensive records for 12" singles. I can try eBay to find a record player where I can use for parts only.
