That's a very nice console stereo!! I enjoy the restoration of these very nice radios 📻 and stereos. Just subbed to your UA-cam channel the other day!! Your friend, Jeff!!
Hi, the 3 symbols on the right, bottom, you did know, how they mean, are (maybe) record input selectors, because: the left symbol is for turntable (record player), the right one is a symbol for microphone and that in the middle - I dont know it, but logical it is a radio? So I thing, it is the recording source selector.
I had a stand alone version of that tape player. Never did get it to work but a buddy with the same unit I was stationed with (3rd Cav) wanted it so bad his teeth hurt so he paid me twice what I had into it for the unit.
Hi. Hope this finds you well. You present these videos well Just watched your video on the leak point one stereo preamp. I have the Varislope alt which I use with the stereo 20 amp like yours. Just wanted to ask you, I get this loud valve noise from the pre which disappears after tapping the front right top corner once or twice and will stay dead silent for a couple records and then return again. Moving any of the knobs makes no difference. What do you think it could be? The valves must be ok as it plays very nice when the hiss isn’t there. Thanks for listening. Ed
It was very common to close the lid after you placed a record on the turn table..Now with that read switch install you would shut off the unit when the lid is closed, bad idea, that is why it was not there..
How did you pull the chassis out of the cabinet? I have a KS550 and want to make sure I can pull it out without damaging anything. Any tips here would be welcomed!!!
Just do things carefully. It helps to have 2 people for the consoles where you have to be in the back to monitor how to wriggle the chassis out, but need to lift from the front.
G'Day Mate! Thanks for the great video. I just got a antique Grundig Majestic 8098 From my Wife for my birthday. Where did you get the rubber belts from? It looks like I have a broken one, or more! Still investigating. Thanks.
Good. Just remember, you don't need to remove the motor to oil it! It would be great to have a copy of the manual!! I'm at colin.joyemusic@gmail.com if you would be so kind to email me a copy!
Many people can repair and restore. Very very little who can clean the devices and turn it into zero cleaning as well as the Chinese plates after being washed ! Because restoring a vintage set with cleaning is meaninglessness and useless !

I have one of these, my grandfather bought it when he was overseas in the 1950's.

I used McMaster.com for the belts and typically go for silicone rubber that's equal or slight tighter in size to the originals.
It is my opinion that that tape deck was designed by the Krell.
Thanks. My motor does not work. I may be able to get the WD-40 into the oil hole. I have the manual if you want a copy emailed to you.
