Ron , Thanks for the help ! I was actually looking at that changer not knowing the answer you gave me. I will take a swipe at it . Doubt I will
be alone on that . Regardless it won't be the last one.Now I know what to look for at least. The dynamic head actually being a magnetic cartridge is also a great thing to know. I could not find that out on my own. I understand the need to match the right output to be amplified. This player looks like it plugs into a transformer in the base of the console . I would not be surprised if it has taps for both crystal and magnetic cartridges.I will have to check that out.
Also surprised by the knobs you linked me to.I am sure they are right but not the type I expected !
This is my third Philco console . I listen to them and enjoy them . I understand the FM is decent on these units so I am looking forward to that. Tubes also are reasonable $ and another plus to this console . Thanks for getting me going again ! I will see if I can do the same for this set !

Bill
