Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

Today's Acquisition: Telefunken Empress Console










Centered around an Opus 7 mono radio/amp chassis w/2-EL84 and a TW 561 changer it has a solid cherry cabinet. Purchased from the original owner! 6 Speakers: 2 8-1/2" 2 4" and 2 2.8" electrostatic tweeters!

All papers, manuals, schematic and a cool thing called the "Telefunken Invitation to Better Reception" a booklet with US AM stations, International Shortwave and a small list of FM stations. (Wash DC having only 9 then) None of the papers/manuals looks even read.


Powered up slowly w/ a VARIAC.......it works! Will give the once over soon. Pretty huh? I lucked out on this.
