  • Philips Model RF8 "Music Studio"

    Functionally styled and designed broadcast stereogram to suit all tastes and fashions. Cabinet available in maple or walnut full gloss finish.

    Features: fully compatible Novasonic 7-valve chassis with Satellite circuitry. Full frequency 8 cone speaker system from two 12" bass speakers, two 4" mid-frequency speakers and two 5" twin-cone tweeters. Four-speed automatic record changer with diamond stylus, ceramic head and feather-weight tone arm. The changer is housed in a tastefully designed and padded compartment and features "Glide-o-Matic" opening. The padding ensures that most sounds from the record changer are silenced and thus no extraneous noises are heard in the music reproduction. Large record storage space.
