G.M.R. Dandy, manufactured in 1956, in very good physical condition and tested and functional.
Description from the seller
Fully restored French radio-gramophone, suitable for daily use.
Wooden cabinet parts finished with clear, colored, and protected with a high-gloss clear lacquer. Here and there, some signs of age are still visible (small bubbles under what I believe is the already renewed veneer from the past).
Rest of the external part deeply cleaned.
Electronically converted into a 3.5-watt tube amplifier, driven by:
- The built-in turntable (Teppaz Eco);
- Solid State FM:MG tuner: very good reception on FM 87.5-108MHz with a small whip antenna, moderate to good reception on MG with built-in ferrite antenna;
Bluetooth receiver (not HIFI)
The ceramic element with 2 needles (78 & 33/45 RPM) of the turntable is new.
This turntable is designated for all 78 RPM records and 33/45 RPM records that are not part of your exclusive collection.
All capacitors, semiconductors, almost all resistors, and wiring are new.
Defective automatic discount removed.
Scale and front lighting with LED strip 6V DC.
Bullets: EL84-EBF80 (tested +90%) – 6N2P (new) – EM34 ('magic eye', 75%, connected as a VU meter).
B470*H330*D330mm – 12.2 kg
