Our favorites for listening are our Telefunkens - 10 to 14 tubes each, 4-5ft long and up to 120 pounds of quality stereo that cost the price of a car back in the 1950s. |

|
Just a few from our tube radio collection. Dean is learning to repair them, and often we get them for little or nothing as "orphan" radios. Tube radios have a much clearer, warmer and realistic sound that modern ones (we have both kinds). Although inexpensive, we get a lot of enjoyment from them. |

|
|
Our friends at the Mid-Atlantic Antique Radio Club (MAARC) have been a great help in advice, finding tubes and parts, and are just great people. |

We have around 30 radios so far, and Dean has reworked about half of them. |
