RCA New Vista model VHT 25 L

by ravenlexi2 » Mon Jan 31, 2011 10:01 pm

Hi, This is my first to post here. I am trying to gather some information on a RCA New Vista Victrola console. The model number is VHT 25 L. It has the stereo and radio player with a slide top door. The cabinet is in excellent condition. The unit still powers on but I think the speakers may be blown as they ramp up to a very loud buzz when turned on. I'm really not wanting to repair it I would just like to find out a value and maybe sell it. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Can't help with value, but can advise you not to power it up--your speakers are probably just fine--BUT, you have other problems that can be worsened if powered up-- Ron Rich

It's a late 60's RCA console that obviously needs filters in the power amp.... I've overhaulled plenty of them.... value is nil on those unless it's a family heirloom.
Best to either keep it, or give it away to a thrift store.
The Internet is a marvelous thing, however it's not a good substitute for actually being there.
