Magnavox Console Stereo (Astrosonic Series) Model # 3RP660

by Noralyn1275 » Sat Oct 16, 2010 3:34 am

I have a Magnavox Astrosonic Series console stereo in Pecan. It's Model # 3RP660 with the turntable. It sounds great and is in very good condition. I have the original paperwork, which includes the Magnavox Inspection card that lists the Model Number, Serial Number and Inspector's information, along with the receipt of purchase in March of 1967. I'm new here, and unfamiliar with 'vintage' items to say the very least, what would this be valued at today? Any assistance is very much appreciated.

I see 'em in Thrift Stores for around $25.
The Internet is a marvelous thing, however it's not a good substitute for actually being there.

Noralynn,
You might want to repost this in the phonograph section. There are people that collect these, and some of them hang out there, but the tube ones are much more popular/valuable than the solid state ones, I think. It was one of the better brands of it's vintage. Antique radio collectors do not typically have much to do with these.

IMHO, I'm with Matt, I see them all the time for little or nothing, even at the curb sometimes after a garage sale. I have no interest in them, BUT that doesn't mean someone else doesn't. It wouldn't hurt to google Magnavox console either to see what turns up.
