These Phillips players were better than most home record players in the 60s. They’re still probably the best portables ever made

At 18 I went to Australia in 1965 for a couple of years. I got a job working in the geology lab on an oil rig in the Oz desert. As entertainment I bought this record player and 7 LP records. That was my entertainment...same 7 records over and over. Now back in Canada since 1967 I still have the record player and the 7 records. My player still has the "leather-like" cardboard case as well. The 7 records became the core of my 3500 album collection all now digitalized but can be played on a very nice system if I so chose. Philips player is on the shelf waiting for restoration. Thanks for the memories.

@saurabhghosh398 Год назад

Greetings from Calcutta, India. This a picnic record player. Ingenious indeed.

@shellac4682 Год назад

Nice little player from a time when the industry knew how to do this. At 7:30 you don't have the belt on the middle drive wheel whereas later you do. Perhaps that was the source of the distortion you heard during the first playback?

@Recordology Год назад

Good catch!!!! I didn’t realize that at the time!

@CaiusRo Год назад

Philips made some really good stuff. Have some from them too. Very good machines

@neilmansfield8329 Год назад

People want these good record players for their old and new digital records.They are much better than a crosley

@ronaldweed6103 Год назад

Funny enough since my stop button on my Philips GA212 went a little wonky, I have to stop my platter the exact same way as you do on this Philips portable. By the way you really need to get yourself a Philips GA212, you'd really love it as it has these green electrostatic controls. Since it is a popular vintage unit, parts are pretty plentiful.

Me being the mechanical nerd I am, the combo of a belt drive and idler/rim drive is just simply awesome! Never seen that before! 👍

@arnoldtolker3505 Год назад

Das ist ja nicht zu glauben! Genau so einen hatten meine Eltern! Sie haben Picknik gemacht draußen auf der Wiese, im Wald... und nach dem Essen wurde getanzt! Ich muss so 8 Jahre alt gewesen sein!

@musicnerd72 Год назад

What a great memory to have!

@TonyBanks21 Год назад

Another fabulous video !

@themadcoachman Год назад

The middle set of batteries should face the opposite direction, you put them all in the same direction

@UncleDansVintageVinyl Год назад

I think that this is the coolest turntable that you've featured here. Totally awesome, man!

@JOSEEYW Год назад

They had a similar Philips record player at school when I was a kid (70's) This brought back some good memories!

@0386rm Год назад

I'd like to find one of those some day.

@cpta03 Год назад

Very nice! I think the Philips sounds better than today’s suitcase players. Thanks for the video!

@festidious2644 Год назад

Hello: Interesting channel and great videos. My dad had a Philips turntable that I wish I had saved as I think it would be very rare. It was in the shape of the Philips logo with a plastic maroon bottom and a cream/white top. The cartridge was very much like the one in this video only original. I think the cartridge had a dip in the middle at the front and the tone arm was around 1 cm in diameter (round). My memories are very old but I think it may have fit a 10 inch record with a 12 inch overlapping (it may have fit a 12 inch). It had a felt mat the same colour as the base. Also, it was like a standard turntable that needed to plug into an amplifier. I am kicking myself now for only having the memory and not the actual turntable. Have you ever seen one of these? Just interested. We had several yellow children's 78s but ours appeared more opaque than the one you played. One in particular that I remember is Sleigh Ride by The Ray Conniff Singers.

@rastaman5105 Год назад

I have that recordplayer to , and the sound is very good for that recordplayer , fr4om the 60,s, greetings from me from Assen in the Netherlands !!

@ericwong6531 Год назад

A neat looking little portable record player. Pretty cool!

@vwestlife Год назад

Only one L in Philips.

@CounterRhythms Год назад

That's a very cool record player. The heavy platter makes all the difference. Someone should make aftermarket heavy platters for the Crosleys and Victrola etc, lol.

@timfaracy754 Год назад

Maybe the first record played wasn't lying flat on the platter which caused the flutter, it looks like the record and tonearm were rising and falling a bit . At the end the record looked more level.

@Hitman-cf6bu Год назад

Very cool to see! It reminds me of my first kiddie record player in a blue denim style finish, that I played my little golden book records, and other kids records on. What is the tracking weight on that arm?

@spacemissing Год назад

The platter is cast zinc. Fairly heavy, non-magnetic, and relatively durable, but sometimes it will crumble without apparent cause.

@Recordology Год назад

Interesting!

@neilmansfield8329 Год назад

Yes this us a great children’s record player

@svatopluksroubek7928 9 месяцев назад

This is a real portable suitcase turntable. The suitcase turntables made by us in Tesla Litovel were bigger and had a normal chassis, with a possibility to join to an outside amplifier / receiver.

@ralphhoskins2115 Год назад

Such a cool record player… Phillips always has style

@mandispalding5634 3 месяца назад

Where do you get the replacements belts from? I am in Australia woukd like to repair the player we have.

@JOSEEYW Год назад

Do you know what are those brown Vocalion records made of? Last week I got a couple at an estate sale only because I found them unusual, one from 1916 and the other one from 1921 for 50 cents each!

@projam7534 Месяц назад

I have one of these players, I am new to vinyl. Do these players damage your records like i've heard other suitcase style players do

@JoeOrber Год назад

Great video and great portable record player. Did you try the line out connection?

@Recordology Год назад

Not yet!

@radiotvphononut Год назад

That record player was also sold under the Mercury brand and advertised on many Mercury, Philips, and Smash LP inner-sleeves during the '60s (there was also an AC-only vacuum-tube amplified Philips-made record player that was advertised on those inner-sleeves). Over the years, I've seen many battery-operated portable record players from the '60s and '70s and these Philips models are among some of the better ones. There were also companies who made battery operated portables that used a full-size record changer, which I have a few of and will one day be doing repair videos on them.

@vwestlife Год назад

Yes, shango066 did a video about the Mercury-branded version of this player. He was impressed by its build quality.

@luiscorreia5347 8 месяцев назад

This turntable have a pre amp or i need one to plug modern speakers?

@plan7a Год назад

That starting/activating action (moving slightly right at first to start the motor) was still used by Philips in the 70's! (Although in the 70's it incorporated a two note tone/sound which played over the speaker and which was audible when recording a record to tape; something this one doesn't seem to do. This meant you had to be careful to start recording at the time just after you placed the needle down so as to avoid the tones; otherwise they featured at the start of every track/recording you made). Having to move the tone arm to the very middle was also something you still had to do in the 70's also! (Goes to show the mechanism lasted for quite a while, therefore!).
