I looked for about 6 years before I found a restored 680X and lately its been a daily player here. It sounds very nice and almost on a level with my former 690's.

Does anyone else have one of the early ones with the door on top ? It seems like almost as many 680X's were sold as 690's but I see lots of 690's but never the 680X's for some reason.

I have seen 2 of these at the Goller's and bought mine from a known Philco collector who gave me 1st dibs on his 2nd one.
