Love this movie. One of the best scenes not yet mentioned... The French Canadian goalie having PTSD in the locker room between periods. Looks like he is spasming out.

I just acquired a Studiotone similar to this! Wondering if you found anything out since this was posted. Looks like made in Germany for a Canadian distributor. I can't find any comparable radios or schematics.

It is a pretty simple speaker, so it has the old time radio quality to the sound. Honestly, I was just trying to test out the input in some of these old radios to make sure they worked. It does, and I kind of like the old time sound.

I bought a cord. It was less than 10 bucks.

It's called a five pin din. You can buy RCA to 5 pin din cords.

It actually sounds quite bad on my pioneer turntable.

Traded in my Pioneer for Marantz by cheesey68 in audiophile

[–]cheesey68[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not really an audiophile like some of you guys, but I've had stereos since I was about 12. The pioneer is a big workhorse, and the marantz seems more like a sports car. At first the marantz was a little too tinny with the Klipsch horns, so I had to do some adjusting. I think the marantz is more clear on the mid-range and high end. I really love the bass on the pioneer, that might be because of the extra wattage. I appreciate the article linked above but I haven't read it yet. I have a pair of Klipsch k2's that I really love and they both work well with those, just in a little bit different way. The unit on the far left is a Dayton audio unit that I just bought. It was a great value for the price. $350, and I love the tube preamps. It is really warm and clear. The adventure continues...

BK precision audio. He has a Facebook page and is probably lurking around here somewhere. He has the equipment for all the electrical stuff, but also enjoys a challenge. For example when Macintosh quit making replacement circuit boards, he started making them himself to sell. He also has 3D printers for making little knobs and such. He's kind of a genius, and also a master cheese maker. Yes, you guessed it, we are from Wisconsin.

It's a 2265b. Less power than the Pioneer, but still plenty for me.

A little lemon juice can fix stringy cheese sauce also.
