I'll agree that most VM school record players are better than most of the other brands. I had one VM solid state school record player that was a cheapie. It used a standard General Industries drive mechanism and a standard tonearm like what the rest of them had. I think the speaker was 4". It worked; but, wasn't up to par in terms of tonal quality and volume.
That's the one, I was referring to.
VM probably made a few models, per model year, from low-end to TOTL.
Some smaller town school boards or private schools, didn't have the deep pockets, that the larger city school systems had.
If the school had only one, like the VM, it was kept in the principal's office and carried to the class room, where it was to be used.
At the end of the day, it was returned, before it sprouted legs.
