  • Notes
  • This set is 100% identical to the Philips Holland set BX495U. The Philips Holland set was manufactured in 1949. Presumably some set came to India in kit form and was assembled by Philips India. So in the label the text "Made in India" is missing. For this reason the year of manufacture is set to 1952. It may be slightly different also. The speaker used is 8.5" type 9696-05.
