Philco Lazy-X and Other New Sets
New and different is the Lazy-X model of the Philco Radio and Television Co., Philadelphia, Pa. It has remote control housed in a cabinet similar to the Lazy Boy model, designed to be placed next an easy chair or davenport. The controls are under a hinged lid. The sounding cabinet is an attractive piece of furniture with the inclined sound board. The only connection is a single flat tape.
Remote control is achieved by purely electrical means. Not a moving part has been added. Tuning, regulating volume, adjusting tone, all can be done without leaving the chair.
Lazy-X comes in two models-14LZX priced at $150 and a slightly smaller Model 19LZ priced at $100.
There is also a model 19-LZ using the same chairside table but the speaker is mounted inside the table. $ 65.
Another X type receiver is the Model 71X with the slanting sounding-board front and shadow tuning. This model uses the new tubes and has a list price of $ 80.
Philco now makes two d.c. models in cabinets similar to the 52C and 52L. Model 48C is $ 35 and 48L is $ 50.
