  • Wire recorder with 78 rpm record player. Successor of the Luxor M102.
    Main differences: Magnetic head made by Luxor instead of the old imported type.
    Simplified mounting of the magnetic head. Small changes in the playback amplifier to improve frequency response. Some units fitted with a more modern pickup with sapphire needle, unknown if this pickup is a magnetic or crystal type. No velvet cover on the turntable, instead six rubber dimples.

    Danger: This unit incorporates a mercury switch for the motor current. Exercise the utmost care to avoid breakage of the glass capsule and make sure that any escaped mercury is properly cleaned-up and disposed of.
