Re: repairing 1950s Philips record player, long post
I totally agree with Ben's comments! I am yet to see one of these changers operate correctly for an extended period.. You think you've got it right but it plays up again. Horrible! Philips began to fit BSR changers with their name stamped on them to get over the unreliability of these decks.
I would suggest a BSR UA8 or 12.The head shell will accept most common cartridges. You will require one with an output of around 250-500mw to drive the amplifier at full volume. If you manage to find one and that should not be difficult, I may have a deck cut out template. Regards, John.
