  • Extended control assembly for Series 500G
    See here the "Common information for the Capehart model pages for the 1930s and 1940s" and for the information about Series 400 here.

    The Capehart 500 series could be called an "Ultra-Luxury Changer" - but is also a great receiver. It was sold for about 5 years - some with custom built cabinets - until civil production had to be given up because of the entry in the WW2. It can also be seen in the movie from 1939, "Intermezzo" with Leslie Howard and Ingrid Bergman as stars.
    The series 500 were made with two cabinet styles: 500 Empire as 500E, 500F, 500G, 500H and 500K for 1940/41 - and 501 Spanish but only as 501H Spanish for 1939/40 and 500K Spanish for 1940/41 - plus some custom made cabinets.
