  • Notes
  • This is the early model K725. 10 Years later Zenith introduced a K725 as K725L, B, C and W with quite an other case and chassis. The K725 early has a Selenium Rectifier.
    After a short time the models received a "Tube Saver" and we introduced therefore a variant to be able to distinguish. Please be careful where to place pictures.

My version of this model has a feature called Tube Saver.  The manufacture date was Jan 12, 1953, and the model numbers show no variation as a result of this added feature.  The model number is K725, the chassis is 7K01.  The bottom label states K725 Walnut.  This information is added at the request of Ernst Erb.  You can also see this device on model H511 as contributed by Mario Bermejo.
