Reminds me of the console I picked up in Palm Desert back in the early 90's--the one I found had a McIntosh C22, MI-3 Scope, MR-71 and MC-2105 amp. I still use that same preamp, scope and tuner in my current system!

That is a nice piece Allan, but did you notice those gorgeous Cornwalls in the back ground. Their either 63's or older, the badge is the clear rectangular plaque located at the bottom. Cane grills with the gold lace weave too, just like my 64 Khorns.

Hi Allan,

My dad currently owns an old JVC/Nivico (sp?) from I am assuming the 1960's. It has a turntable (needs either replacement or repair of some sort), and a reel to reel player. You open it up from the top (like a coffin). It is long, and the speakers are loaded so they face you from one end of it to the other. Not sure if tubed or not. Of course, made of real wood. Heavy!!

I remember as a little kid he would play his records with it until the turntable started developing problems. Now it's in their dining room, covered with a tablecloth, not in use. Sorry, no pic.

Are you familiar with these?

Mike in NE PA

My dad's console looks like this, but in much, much better condition. Yeah, his has a radio, too. Also a reel to reel. I think it might have even had reverb, believe it or not. JVC/Nivico (sp?).

I never looked to see if you can hook up other components or speakers to it. It already has built in speakers.

I remember it had a full, lovely sound.
