Tom, That sounds like a good plan. I was trying to avoid crystal entirely because of assumed high mortality due to temp and humidity. I was also looking at using a tube versus a transistor for closer impedance matches. Nice to know there is an alternative for a high output level.

A guy in Ohio rebuilt the Astatic crystal cart for my 1934 Philco console with an automatic changer but have not done the rest of the Philco's restoration, not even knowing if it will work. I have lots of records to try, 78's can be very interesting and do not sound nearly as bad as one might assume.
