My family owned an identical one back in the 80’s, I used to absolutely love it, we lived in Venezuela and I remember picking some AM radio stations from the Caribbean islands! Great memories 🙌🏼✨
I had that Zenith Allegro Stereo. got it in 1979. Loved it, only played one 8-track in it. 8 tracks were on their way out at the time. Recorded LP albums onto cassette. This stereo had the best sound. Zenith was the bomb back in the day. Why don't you speak?
I don't speak in the videos because the important thing is to see how they work or listen, since they are not tutorials I don't think it's necessary to explain or say anything, it's just a tool for my ebay stores, all the electronics I sell on ebay have a link that brings them to youtbue, to the product that they are about to buy. thanks for your time !
Hello Mr. Teddy. I've seen almost all of your videos, and I see you do an excellent job. I also do sound equipment restoration and when I see your videos I'm happy to know what part of what I do you do too. And I've also been through complicated situations in the restoration of sound equipment, just like you've been through. Congratulations and Thank you.
I appreciate your time watching my videos, it is difficult to repair or recondition, but when you see them working it is very exciting ... If you need help let me know could possibly help you with manuals or tips, keep in touch
I've recently got a Sound Design stereo (model 6990) from 1977 that reminds me of your Zenith. It's not identical, but your Zenith looks like it was built by Sound Design. My stereo doesn't have an aux input, which would be handy for a CD player.
I have the 4031 model with cassette player/recorder. The recordings of LP's sound better than the LP itself. The whole unit has a nice, deep bass tone to it. The BSR changer works as it should. I did replace the stylus. I use it as a home entertainment theater system. I use an FM stereo transmitter from the tv/BluRay and listen on the FM receiver.
your only option is to use Aux input from the stereo system to the TV, new TV's normally has 3.5mm stereo female output, you need 3.5mm male to RCA cable, sorry for my late respond.
No, it doesn't. But there is a button to play chrome tapes. Usually, you just turn the treble down a bit if you are playing a tape with Dolby noise reduction. Also, I don't think 8 track tape players never had Dolby noise reduction.
You have to remove the safety clips from the turntable, take the turntable out from above, disconnect the power and signal from the turntable, then remove the cover, carefully disconnect the tape player, remove the damaged bulbs and put in the new ones, reverse the process
4:16 On 8 track you can skip tracks by pressing a button similar to CD. No need to rewind like conventional cassettes. I remember we once had an 8 track player but I was too young to operate it myself.
That's right, change track, but not at the beginning of the song, like CD or minidisc, dvd, laser disc, Mp3 player, etc, etc. and this video is demo, not tutorial, sorry
Even as early as the 1970's these all-in-one component systems popularity were in decline and considered "junk". Well, yes and no. For a bedroom, den, kitchen or garage this would be an acceptable system. Will it fill a large room with loud music? No way. It's nice to see this stuff still exists. The forerunner of our separate component society. My kitchen has a Pioneer SX-434 receiver that powers a Nakamichi BX-1 cassette deck and Boston Acoustics A-40 speakers.
I don't know. This appears to be one of the better models, and based on its power consumption figures, I'd guess about 15-20 honest watts per channel - a respectable, though not extravagant, output. Most all-in-ones that were sold were not nearly as well-featured as this. Certainly good enough for a living room if you don't have an extraordinarily large house. Is it the equal of a good component system? Probably not; but then, most folks don't need anything that elaborate. All-in-ones evolved into those 'bookshelf' stereos in the 80s and 90s, which is when the quality really began to take a nose dive.

Looks to be in great shape, very nice unit.
Old is Gold ; pretty nice !
I found one for sale so was just checking to see what it should do. I would like to buy it now that I've seen this one.
I like your choice of music for your cassette!
thanks... and thank you for watching...
I miss those old stereo.
I've recently got a Sound Design stereo (model 6990) from 1977 that reminds me of your Zenith. It's not identical, but your Zenith looks like it was built by Sound Design. My stereo doesn't have an aux input, which would be handy for a CD player.
It’s a decent all-in-one because it has a magnetic cartridge on the turntable.
i just got one like this minus the cassette on top for 5 bucks i don't have speakers yet tho

What is this worth nowadays? I have this exact unit at home with the original manual and adaptors. In pristine condition.
how to conect to tv i have using my radio spears to my mobile or table work so good im trying to conec to my tv i dont how is missing one thing
your only option is to use Aux input from the stereo system to the TV, new TV's normally has 3.5mm stereo female output, you need 3.5mm male to RCA cable, sorry for my late respond.
Such a delightful combine
Wow magnetic cartridge, does the cassette have Dolby?
No, it doesn't. But there is a button to play chrome tapes. Usually, you just turn the treble down a bit if you are playing a tape with Dolby noise reduction. Also, I don't think 8 track tape players never had Dolby noise reduction.
Está padre a pesar de la época ya se considera una joya felicidades y a cuidarlo unos años más bonito aparato saludos
And what's that aux on the back of the stereo for
to connect other source like cd player
Nostalgia 😭 en mi casa tuvimos uno de esos
leonel s.kennedy Son unos aparatos increiblemente buenos y duraderos
Like many, had the same exact one growing up.
Thank you for showing me how to use this player.
Any time!
How do you change the light bulb
You have to remove the safety clips from the turntable, take the turntable out from above, disconnect the power and signal from the turntable, then remove the cover, carefully disconnect the tape player, remove the damaged bulbs and put in the new ones, reverse the process
