- Notes
-
PERFORMANCE in a set of gracious charm.
NEW in looks, certainly, but new in performance too. The Pacific "Trans-Tasman" model brings you "living listening"....a breath-taking degree of realism in reproduced music. A powerful 6-valve broadcast model with 8" Alnico speaker has every refinement you can ask for including edge-lit dial, spin tuning, tuned radio frequency stage, provision for gramophone pick-up and extension speaker.
