Thanks Ron. Yes, Michael helped me buy this Philco 37-116, for which I am infinitely grateful to him. This is my very favorite radio, it works great and has a great audiophile sound. It is not for nothing that the inscription "High Fidelity" is placed on its front panel. It has a beautiful classic powerful two-stroke amplifier on triodes 6B4G (and this is a minimum of distortions of the 2nd and 3rd order), a huge 13-inch speaker and a very progressive system with "sound purifiers" at that time. I have not yet heard any other radio with such a natural and deep sound at low frequencies.
Maybe the Zenit Stratosphere has a better sound, but I don't have it  ... And hardly ever will
